In a message dated 97-11-18 23:24:25 EST, you write: << I do not like to see players cut during the regular season, unless it is for violating team rules, etc.. I do not think it helps the sense of team unity. >> I feel that this statement is correct from a spectators point of view but we do not see what goes on off the ice and during the practices. Therefore we must trust Walsh's decisions because if anyone knows what will hinder or gel a team's unity, it is the coach. Go Blue! John
