Reading Brad Cuyler's latest note (man, he's been busy lately, mostly it seems defending himself) I was sort of surprised to see him propose a 2-division conference. I, for one, would support such an idea (especially if it means not swiping someone from the CCHA). I feel that the 56 vs. 64 point argument is somewhat academic, since WCHA teams play 32 games now in conference. Why not 32 in a 2-division conference? For my money, I'd still like to see Air Force as that twelfth team. They could easily fit into Brad's Western Division (I think they should name them after historic figures from the conference, as the NHL used to do, before Bettman decided that people couldn't identify with the names. How many of us still think of the Bruins and Canadiens, for example, as Adams Division opponents?). Just my $.03 worth (you know, inflation, taxes, all those things that go with having Democrats in the White House). G. M.
