I did my best to stay awake.

He is trying to get into college hockey ASAP and someone in the same previous thread commented that he gave BSU a verbal for 07. However, if Parise has told Hak he is leaving maybe the offer of playing this year will win the letter of intent.

In a different thread there was talk of a visit by a Goalie so did he happen to look like the guy in this link? http://bozemanicedogs.com/team/roster/?id=2751

It has ended at 2-1 for Canada. Stafford didn't look out of place and had one of USA's better shots on net in the third period. It would also appear that he is over his knee injury.

On the home TV here in Ottawa. If you have Center Ice they should be carrying the feed in the US. At least they did in the past. If not you can listen to it by going to the USA Ice Hockey Web site. First period is over still 1-0 USA and the shots were 9-5 for Canada

I didn't find a seperate game thread but Stafford just set up the one move wonder for a goal so USA is up on Canada 1-0

Speaking of Commodore they featured him and his robe on Don Cherry's Coaches Corner tonight and Cherry has agreed to wear the robe for a future show if the Canes advance.

When he said 6'2" I though perhaps he meant Dan McWhinney of the OPJHL. http://www.stouffvillespirit.com/players/p...os=G&playerid=2

I wasn't near a computer so I couldn't provide updates today but the US did defeat Denmark 3-0. Shots were 37-19 for the US. Still not much playing time for Stafford and although he didn't get a shot on goal his line did get one of the goals today. Goals from Park, Alberts and Yan Stastny.

Someone should be proof reading Cupchella's emails before they are released.

Final Shots 31-21 USA. In the final score sheet Drew was given credit for a second period shot on goal.

Dustin Brown with a third PP goal (natural Hat-trick) makes it 3-1 with less than 5 minutes to go.

None of the college players are seeing much ice time but they should be seeing it now rather than waiting for the big games. Besides there has been too much individual play by the Pros anyway but I guess this is to be expected in only their second game together. I suspect the same problem will plague Canada.

Dustin Brown gets a second power play goal 2-1 USA

Second Period is over, still 1-1 and the shots are 21-12 for USA

Dustin Brown scores on the PP to make it 1-1.

The first period did not go well as Norway is up 1-0. USA carried the play but Hilbert should be benched as he took three of the five minor penalties. Shots were 12-6 in favor of the US.

Sometimes the scouts do make mistakes. My son played against Wheeler several years back and was shocked to see the hype and selection he got. And low and behold he really is just a big pylon.

One Move Wonder, is that really you?

I am looking forward to watching Drew play on TSN next week. It sounds like his goal against Slovenia was a typical Stafford blaster and it will be good to see how he does against other traditional hockey powers. I also see that the one move wonder's move worked against the Slovenian D.

Someone had asked several months back what impact Toews and Tessier had on the Colorado Outlaws season. Their season turned around dramatically and in this article their goaltender, whose dad is a personal friend of mine, suggested turnaround was due to a coaching change. http://thescoutingnews.com/content/view/492/2/

The story is already on TSN today too. Best of luck Drew. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=164738&hubname=

And I would imagine that the green leafy material and paraphanelia seized by the police was merely their spinach and Popeye collectible pipe.

A good read on Commodore. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=164541&hubname=nhl

Hmmm, last time I checked the Habs were still up on the Highstick Canes and weren't struggling against the worst team to make the playoffs.
