George64 I was hesitant to post this, as eLynah is largely a politics-free zone, but attacking hockey goes just too far! Disney is one thing, but the NHL?

Re: Opponents and Others, 2022-23 - 1 year ago
FWIW, I did a bracketology this weekend. I had us in Allentown with Penn State, Denver, and Michigan Tech. If you simply layout the numerical pairings, Western Michigan would wind up in the 3rd slot against Denver, but since they can't play Denver in the 1st round, I swapped us and Western (and sent Western to Manchester). Other than that, everything went straight by the numbers with the Gooby Jeff Hopkins '82 - Hockey

Weder Jeff Hopkins '82 Figured I'd ask this here, although it's not "pros yet. I'm "watching" the women's U18 match between the US and Sweden. The announcers mentioned that one of the US players was heading to Cornell. They also said that her mother went there. Anybody know which player she is? It’s goalie Annelies Bergmann.
