On the topic of Jeff Sauer- I've watched Sauer-coached teams at Wisconsin for the last 6 years and I would have to agree with the assessment that Sauer is a great recruiter of talented players, but at best, a mediocre coach. I think the power play is a good estimation of how disiplined and well coached a team is. despite the fact the UW consistently has good/great athletes, their power play is consistently among the worst in the WCHA. Just my two cents- George O'Toole HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
