We can all be thankful it was another great game. I can't imagine anyone who watches any ice hockey turning in and not being won over as a fan of college hockey. Congratulations to all the teams at the Frozen Four in that regard, BTW. It seemed to me (watching the game from 1000 miles away :-)) that BC relied a little too much on their one great line and/or the individual wizardry of guys like Farakus. Indeed, to echo the other comments already made, that is what the anouncers emphasized in their call almost to the exclusion of the team concept. But BC played a great game and lost to a ND team who turned it up a notch in the 3rd period. And that was actually the difference - more total team effort. Those guys put everything they had into the game and at the end seemed to just have more to give than BC. They also had the better transition defense-to-offense game throughout. Sure wish I could have been there! Maybe when I retire in about 8 years - of course, I'll have to plan ahead and enter the ticket lottery about two years before that the way things are going. At least the sport is growing in general popularity. That brings troubles, but is on balance good for us.
