Sammy looked pretty cold; it didn't seem like he was making very good decisions and his shots weren't on goal very often. . . .  I wish I had seen Harvard practice so I could comment on the injury question marks for them.  But most importantly, our team looks more than ready for tomorrow!

Both Sammy and Kolarik looked pretty good today.  But Sammy looked better.

He was cold Friday--and I was cursing myself because I felt like I jinxed him.  I'm glad he warmed up when we needed him most!  Maybe the anti-woofing gods helped.  ;-)

According to a very reliable source, the "4B" on the back of the team practice jerseys stands for 4 banners.

And here I was thinking that that was a reference to MSU-Mankato's seed.

And let's not forget the "Regular Season Champs" banner  and the "We had a Hobey finalist" banner and the "Perfect home season" banner, and the "Defensive Team of the Year" banner, and the....   ::yark::

I had thought we didn't raise a "Cleary spittoon" banner last year.  True?

No, there is no banner in Lynah for the Cleary Spitoon/Bedpan/Jell-O Mold/Radioactive Waste Disposal Unit.

well...about the 4B thing, i dont think it means four banners...i went to the practice today (4/3) and i asked a player and he said it was a team secret and that he couldnt tell me. sooo....i dont think it means four banners :-}

so ... what was the turnout like for practice? about how many people were hovering around trying to get tix? how many did they have left for sale? yup ... call me nosy but i am full of questions.

[the abbott fan]

hah none left for sale. my name prolly wasnt drawn either. i wasnt really listening...too busy chillin with my friend and watchin the guys play. the turn out was pretty good, a good amount of people came. lots of support. it was fun, especially afterword, when we were chatting it up with all the players and they were kinda like ...ok who are these people...heh but some knew. anyways are all their practices open? if so when are they?

Did anyone see that ESPN televised team practices before the final four.  Very interesting--and the stadium seemed fairly full!  I wonder how many will watch the practices at the frozen four considering that only 8-10 people were there to watch Cornell practice at the ECAC championships.
