If I am not mistaken, this is the first time ever that a Shark was a runner
up of a player of the week award.  I would have given it to Irbe myself
(after all, I am biased. :-)), but apparently W/L and shut-outs are viewed as
important.  Irbe has had 4 straight spectacular games, but won only one of
them, lost 2, and had a "no-decision."  (Brian Hayward lost that one.)

Hopefully Irbe, or some other Shark, will actually win a Player of the Week
soon.

I saw Dave beat the stuffing out of Stu (make my face bleed) Grimson while
Dave was with the Oilers and Stu with the Flames. Stu was called up from
Salt Lake for the big game against Edmonton (Tim Hunter was injured).

The inevitable happened and the two met. Brown broke Stu's jaw and Stu was
promptly traded from the Flames.

Obviously you did, because "irregardless" isn't a word.  "Regardless" is the

It is quite possible.  And it is also quite possible that they wanted to have sex
that night and the alleged rape did occur.  Just as you're accusing me of taking
the woman's side, you seem to be siding with the players.  I'm not siding with
anyone, because I don't know what went on.

And you're wrong in your assumption.  I'm not judging anyone involved, the players
or the women.   I could have easily written that the players are all rapist pigs,
or that the women were sluts and the one that got raped asked for it.  But I 
didn't, because I not what I believe.   Everyone who has contacted me about the
post understood that.   You didn't.

I'll try this for a little while. If I don't think anyone is using it, I'll
quit since it will be a unnecessary effort on my part. One of the channels I
get shows sports info (called the sportstracker). I'll enter bits into a file
for others to read if they are logged on and want to see updates. First, I
have to be home to do this. Second, I can't be using my VCR since my TV is
not cable ready and I can't get the channel on it. Third, I have to remember
8-). Thus, it could be that updates won't happen for hours or even at all if
I'm not home.

To get the updates, if you have Unix: finger wilson@cs.ucf.edu
                    if you have something else: ?

Besides the garbage associated with my account, you should see:

Project: Last update <date>
Plan:
all of the updates for the night starting with the schedule.

If I'm not watching the sportstracker, I cannot get the info I missed while
not watching. So an entry might say "TB/StL: 1-0" and then a little later
another "TB/StL: 2-4" with no updates in between. Sorry, this is a free service.
Scorers are usually given and also some minor league results are occasionally
given: IHL, AHL.

If you think you'll use this, make yourself heard. Otherwise, I'll stop (which
is fine with me).

Finally, if the file gets rather large for a particular night, use grep and
your desired team to see only those lines since I will start each entry with
the two teams involved.

As of 11/17/92 -
No. 1  Montreal Canadiens - impressive week despite first loss at home this
                            season.  Beating Bruins and Flames - really shows

    3  Pittsburgh Penguins- 1-3-1 slump brings Pens back to reality.  True test
                            time coming up.  3 straight home and home series'
                            against New Jersey, Rangers, and Washington.
    4  Chicago Blackhawks - off and running again.

Date: 19 Nov 92 18:45:34 GMT

Organization: HMS

Seems like NHL adopted NBA schedule model for this season to
cut down on longer road trips and increase inter-conference rivlary.

I'll take the NHL's Boston Bruins and NBA's Boston Celtics as an example:
NHL's Bruins play :
            each Adams div. team 7 times                            = 35
            each Patrick div. team 4 times plus 1 extra game vs.Pens 
            at a neutral site(Atlanta,GA)                           = 25
            each Campbell Conference team 2 times(home&away)        = 24
                                                                     ---
                                                                      84
NBA's Celtics play :
            each Atlantic div team 5 times except for one alternating
            team each season which they only face 4times(it's New Jersey
            this year)                                              = 29
            each Central div. team 4 times except for one alternating
            team each season which they only face 3times(it's Detroit
            this year)                                              = 27
            each Western Conference team 2 times a season           = 26
                                                                     ---
                                                                      82
Addition of expansion teams is probably another reason behind more 
balanced inter-conference schedule.

Jets GM Mike Smith was at the Flyers-Rangers game on Thursday night,
en route to a league meeting in New York City, and told Jennifer Frey
of the New York Times that no wholesale changes to the club will be
made in the near future and the players have been told such.  However,
we know what "near future" means ... however, Frey's article takes
Smith's words to mean no big Jets-Rangers deal soon.

Joe Lapointe, following the Islanders to Boston, said that Rangers'
exec Larry Pleau was scouting that game.

Problems scoring goals...yes that is a small problem in the Norris division, but
I might be out of line here (NOT!)...but the Norris division OWNS the Patrick      
division...especially the PENS !

Of course, the season is still young, and that may change.  Basically, that means
there is still time left for the Lightning (da Bolts !) to beat Pittsburgh 
by some obscene amount (5-0).  And of course Kontos will have at least 4 of
the goals.                 

But hey, this is just the humble opinion (my 2 cents) of a Misplaced Chicago

There are a couple of other instances when a penalty shot is awarded.  Throwing a 
stick at the puck with less than 2 minutes remaining is one.  I'm not sure about
this one, but I think if someone other than the goalie closes a hand on the puck
in the crease, a P shot is awarded.

One would think the Senators would offer the Oilers something for
Currie and Van Allen, since they probably could be obtained for
a reasonable price, because neither really fit into the Oilers's future.
