Just a moment before, he had made the save of the game. Stupid, chippy DU penalties. That's not them, usually.

For many years we had the reputation of playing hatchet hockey. It took a long time for that to not influence the ECAC officiating-and perhaps even these days it has some effect. I cannot count the number of times some sort of chippy penalty cost us a win or a tie.

I swear, the pep band looks like each of 'em put on the least stinky garment for the game. But they playse good.

Well even with conference realignment, we're still playing North Dakota. Man, they almost killed a DU player a couple of years ago. They've got a well deserved reputation, going back decades.

Once upon a time there were ushers at the back door who would let band members in based on them wearing their matching rugby shirts. I think they should bring him back; the haphazard "wear whatever you feel like" approach really doesn't present a very good image.

The rugby order for freshmen hasn't come in yet, which contributes to the non-uniform look. I agree that everyone should at least be in the T-shirt though.

D'Amigo now picks up an assist. All he needs is 5 for fighting for the Gordie Howe Hat Trick.
