Thanks to "sports_dad" for posting the rules committee actions.

In reading the committee actions, I'm reminded of several opposing
goalie chants, ... none of which I can repeat here.
Does anyone else get the feeling this is just a little bureaucratic hand-
waving that won't make a difference? I did, until I got well into the
article and found:
> Stated for the record its unanimous support of the half-shield for
> intercollegiate competition. ...
So much for kids playing a game and the adults protecting them :-(
Emphasize the penalty for diving and unanimously support less facial
protection ... real good NCAA ice hockey rules committee.
