Opponents News 2: Hockey's the Reason for the Season

[RichH]

I'll allow Jagr to wear #68, since it's for a wonderful reason.

Absolutely.  Rusko do prdele.

Completely agree.

Generally I let the pros be pros, but in the case of colleges, every time some college kid wears #77, he's saying the back of the jersey is more important than the name on the front.

Donato is looking like he really might be something special.  He has the lone goal so far in the 3rd period of Bruins v. Blues tonight on NBC Sports.  This after a goal and 2 assists in his first game.  They just showed a stat that Ryan is the first Bruin with 4 points in their first two games since 1980.

ESPN's NHL Power Rankings states that Donato is still taking classes at Harvard while he is playing for the Bruins.

Says more about Harvard classes than Donato.

But nothing we didn't already know.

Well, now, you have to sympathize with the guy.  If he stopped going to classes, he might wind up with an A-minus or something.

One goal was on the D.  the breakway we had tremendous pressure and were taking pot shots and the puck just deflected into the perfect spot for a breakaway. the bounce was a bad bounce off the boards, a lucky kick off the Attacker skate, then 2 deflections off the Cornell D for an own goal..  Even the empty netter we controlled the puck for almost the 4 min we pulled the goalie and had tons of chances.

Not related to any team nearby, but Don Lucia steps down as Minnesota coach. Minnesota hasn't been the same team since their Frozen Four appearance a few years ago.

I don't think the third goal was even a defensive breakdown. I remember McCrea giving Veronneau a bit too much space while skating back in transition but I wouldn't necessarily call it a "breakdown"
