I sure hope that you are correct, but I am waiting until I see his name in the lineup. If he plays, who do you expect to sit down? Jensen seems to me to have been playing the best hockey of his career since Bergin's injury.

UW was only in last night's game because UND was hungover from the Pre-Reading and Review Day party. Once they sobered up, they dominated the Popcorn Weasels. UND wins by at least a baker's dozen tonight. Sioux Sweep

Sometimes, they beat Yale, UNH, and BU. Sometimes, they lose to Niagara and SLU, and find a way to lose in regulation up a goal with 70 seconds left. They could win it all. They could come in last. Neither would surprise me. The...
