Denver's Sinuhe Wallinheimo wooed the judges with his flamboyance; Minnesota's Jeff Callinan impressed with his discourse, and his fellow Gopher Jeff Moen scored points with the difficulty of his stunts. [ Non-Wallinheimo stuff deleted] Wallinheimo had 50 saves Friday night in a game the Gophers dominated but could not win. But it was the sideshow the sophomore from Vantaa, Finland, conducted that left his mark on this night. Wallinheimo held up the puck for the crowd to see after each save, exhorted the fans to heckle him more loudly, and even pointed at his counterpart Callinan when the fans riddled Wallinheimo with the chant of ``Sieve!'' ``The crowd turns me on,'' Wallinheimo said. ``In Finland we don't have crowds like that.'' When the game ended, Callinan skated to the other end of the ice to inform Wallinheimo that, in Mariucci Arena, goalies don't behave like that. ``I told him I enjoyed his little sideshows,'' Callinan said. ``He had a great game. But he came into our building, and I don't think what he did was appropriate.'' [ Remainder of article deleted ]
