-- [ From: Adam Wodon * EMC.Ver #2.10P ] -- I know I'll be on the Brown fan's hit list once again -- but I must defend Mike about Gaudet. His post was long and I won't go into detail, but Mike needn't worry that he has only seen Brown once. I've seen them about 12 times under Gaudet, and his actions are sadly well within character. I say sadly, because general consensus is that Gaudet is a decent guy and a good coach, but a jerk during games. This comes from other coaches and other anyone who watches a Brown game that isn't a Brown fan. Gaudet can usually be found, for a majority of the game, right in front of his own bench, yapping at refs. This starts about 2 minutes into the game and doesn't end. It's one thing to bait refs and look for an edge, but personally, I think Gaudet makes a fool out of himself. This isn't isolated instances, it's every time I've seen him. (I won't even get into the playing tactics he preaches) I think, at times, what he does could be hurting his team -- not just because some refs may backlash at him -- but because I think he too often makes the referees the focus of his attention instead of his team. Flame away Brown people - but I don't care. AW HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
