I always muse at people who say that "the announcers were against us." We Maine fans have a reputation for being ultra-sensitive, and this is perpetuated when people react to the negative things brought up by those covering the game. You have to accept the bad with the good, folks. I honestly can't think of a better college hockey analyst than Bob Norton. His knowledge of and enthusiasm for the game adds plenty to the broadcast. I really missed him when ESPN chose not to use him in the 1999 Frozen Four. I can't say that I really noticed Grande one way or the other, so he must have done a good job. As for Carr and Smith, I don't think I could have said it any better than Mr. Wollstadt did.
