For those who would like to get together and skate on Friday, it looks like the
best bet is Mariucci Arena at 11:15AM. That will give enough time to skate and
get back downtown in time for the Hobey Baker announcement. Alternatives
include The Depot in downtown Minneapolis (11AM - 1PM and 7PM-1AM). Skate
rental is available at either location. Mariucci has better ice and is less
costly: $3 to skate, skate rental is $2. The Depot is spiffier, but costs $6
to skate. We should be able to arrange rides -- e-mail me or talk to me on
Thursday.
Paula and I will be hosting a HOCKEY-L party with the mandatory annual showing
of Slap Shot at our home on Friday evening. We live about 10-15 minutes away
from downtown St. Paul. E-mail me for address and directions if you're
interested, or get my attention sometime on Thursday.
