It’s 20 minutes since the game ended, and the Badgers aren’t ready to leave the ice. The seniors will stay on as long as they can, to bask in the cheers and delay taking that jersey off for the last time. Most of the fans have stayed as well, even after the awards ceremony, which … Read more

I’m blogging from the press area at Bradley arena, watching the skills challenge, a new idea that’s growing on me. Similar to the NHL challenge done at all-star time, the Skills Challenge pits seniors (men and women) from the East and West regions against each other in events like skating, stick handling, etc. Prior to … Read more

Friday is one of my favorite days at the Frozen Four. Practices, Hobey and Humanitarian, and often some time to sightsee. This year, things are running a bit differently with the skills competition added to the mix. That messed up USCHO’s plans a bit, as for the past few years we’ve been holding a Town … Read more

Most of the talk has centered around these two players, both of whom deserve the award. But Collins has … Read more
