Our club is planning to buy a set of goalie gear - used.  We are trying to
figure out what is a fair price to pay.  We will probably need everything.
I am hoping someone out there might have some ideas about what is a fair
price, and where on the Net we might look, in addition to our local shop.
Please contact me at email@hidden if you have any ideas.  Thanks.

The Brooklyn Blades are interested in finding Senior women's  teams  within 
the NY Metro Area who would like to schedule some games with us.

I believe I have contacted most of the teams in the immediate Metro area - so 
 if I have not contacted you already, please drop me a line.  

We are interested in finding new teams to play against - including University 
Club teams.   Will do a bit of travelling to your turf - but would like to 
keep the travel time to under 2 hrs (from NYC) as much as possible.

Locally, we are a "B" level team, but we are on the "C" level nationally.   
Most of our players have from 0-3 years of experience.  

We have a lot of ice now through December, and would need to travel in the 
2nd half of the season.


Please contact me via email.

Thanks.

Jill

New Assistant, Volunteer Assistant Join Women's Hockey Badgers 

Madison, Wis. - Head women's hockey coach Trina Bourget announced
today the hiring of Jeff Vizenor as assistant coach, filling the
vacancy left when Bourget took over the program. Vizenor, who will
make $36,000, will also be joined by volunteer goaltending coach Matt
Schindler.
	Vizenor becomes a Badger after spending the last two years as
the head women's hockey coach at St. Mary's University in Winona,
Minn. The Rogers, Minn., native led the Cardinals to a 34-13-4 mark
and two Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) regular
season co-championships. Voted the 1998-99 MIAC Coach of the Year, he
also served as the Division III Western Representative to the American
Women's Hockey Coaches Association.
	Schindler, a Madison, Wis., native, will serve as a volunteer
coach for his hometown Badgers after graduating from UW-Whitewater
this past summer. Schindler was a three-time all-league selection with
the Warhawks, as well as team captain and team MVP for the 1998-99
season. An Academic All-American in the 1997-98 season, he spent the
1999-00 season as the UW-Whitewater and Stoughton High School goalie
coach. Schindler is a graduate of Madison's Edgewood High School.

GOPHERS' DROP WCHA-WOMEN'S LEAGUE TITLE GAME TO BULLDOGS

In a battle of goaltenders, Minnesota-Duluth's Tuula Puputti bested 
Minnesota's Erica Killewald to lead the Bulldogs to a 2-0 win in the title 
game of the inaugural WCHA-Women's League Championship.

Puputti, who stopped all 31 Gophers shots, was named the tournament's most 
valuable player. Killewald earned all-tournament honors after stopping 53 of 
55 shots, including 36 against UMD, in two games.

The champions scored at 13:42 of the opening period when Navada Russell's 
shot from the left point found it's way through traffic and past a screened 
Killewald.

The Bulldogs clinched the game in the third period when Brittny Ralph tipped 
in a pass from Erika Holst with 10:50 to play in the game while on the 
power-play.

With the victory, UMD (25-3-3) earns an automatic berth in the AWCHA 
National Championship, March 24-25 in Boston, Mass. Minnesota (30-6-1) is 
still in contention for an at-large berth. The four-team field will be 
announced by USA Hockey on March 19.

The countdown is on!  In two short weeks players from each of the
Canadian Forces Bases in the prairie region will meet at CFB Edmonton
to compete in a training camp/tournament.  Full teams will be fielded by
CFB Edmonton and CFB Cold Lake (AB) with a nearly-full roster
from CFB Winnipeg to be augmented with players from CFB Shilo (MB) and
CFB Moose Jaw (Sask).  The pacific region will also field a full team to
round out the competition to four teams.  It is expected that the bulk of
this team will be players from CFB Esquimalt and CFB Comox.

At the tournament, an all-star team will be selected (from among the prairie
region players) to represent the region at the first-ever Canadian
Forces Womens Hockey National Invitational to be held at CFB Borden
30 Apr - 5 May 00.

These events truly mark an historic moment for womens hockey and
womens sports in the Canadian Forces.

at my daughter.  The girl came up to her armpit, and did about as much
damage as a fy could to a great dane.  The ref was standing there, saw the
whole thing.  My daughter thought it was very funny and said to the ref,
Oh, oh, someones throwing punches, like a nursery school teacher.  The ref
rolled her eyes, picked up the puck, and skated off.  I saw the whole thing
too, and thought it was very funny.  My mother-in-law, the queen of hockey
mothers (all her sons, grandsons, and three grand daugthers play hockey),
was upset and said that it didn't matter that no harm was done, because if
you let the kid throw a punch in front of a ref, next thing you know, she
will be using her stick as a baseball bat.   Any thoughts?

By the way, the reffing was seamless.  You didn't even notice it, it was so
good.  Also, 3 minutes before the end of the third period in a scoreless
tie, my daughter had an unassisted goal from the blue line for the winning
goal.  She sure knows when to come through.

Grandma is right.  Fighting, especially a blatant act (which cannot be 
mistaken as anything but intent to injure, whether they are capable of 
causing harm or not) such as throwing punches, hitting someone with the 
stick, etc. should not be tolerated,  in any level of hockey.  Period.  End 
of story.     (There was a pretty good discussion about this about 2 months 
ago that you may want to check out on the list archives.)

ggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrr.  It's antics like this that perpetuate the "violent" 
reputation of our wonderful game!

USA Hockey Players Reach Contract Agreement

USA Hockey - October 03, 2000

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - USA Hockey announced Monday that it has reached
an
official agreement with the players who will make up the roster for the
2000-01 United States Women's National Team.
The announcement was made by USA Hockey President Walter L. Bush, Jr.
(Edina, Minn.), Executive Director Doug Palazzari (Colorado Springs,
Colo.),
International Council Chairman Ron DeGregorio (Salem, N.H.) and U.S.
Women's
National and Olympic Team Coach Ben Smith (Gloucester, Mass.).
The team began practice on Sunday at the Olympic Center in Lake Placid,
N.Y., the permanent training site for the National Women's Program. The
season begins with a home series Oct. 14-15.
"I enjoyed the opportunity to sit down and discuss the issues in an
environment of mutual respect and cooperation," said Palazzari. "In the
end,
we were able to commit to an agreement that benefits everyone and allows
the
players to return to doing what they love - play hockey."
"Both parties had good discussions with a lot of respect for each other,
which resulted in a relatively quick resolution," said DeGregorio. "It's
an
arrangement that will greatly benefit the team in preparation for the
upcoming season, including the 2002 Olympic Winter Games."
"I'm pleased that we're back on the ice and back to doing what we want to
do
as a group," said Smith. "A lot of the credit goes to the players and
Doug
Palazzari and Ron DeGregorio for addressing the matter in a way that is
satisfactory to all concerned. Everything came together once we got
everyone
in the same room."
"One of the positive results from this experience is a more open line of
communication. We can all work together when we communicate like we did,
and
only good things can come from it," said longtime team captain Cammi
Granato
(Downer's Grove, Ill.). "As players, we formed a strong bond and became
more
appreciative of being here. Now we can get to the real business ahead on
the
ice."
"It's a great to be playing again and that's the reason we're here. The
agreement that we reached with USA Hockey, and the fact that they met
with
us in person, reassures us that they're willing to do whatever it takes
for
the best interests of the program and its players," said forward lana
Blahoski (St. Paul, Minn.). "It was pretty incredible and I hope they saw
that we're just as dedicated to being the best in the world."
"We're happy to be on common ground, and really excited to be on the ice.
It
was a long and tedious process but when it was all said and done, both
parties were happy. We're excited to be one group again and USA Hockey
proved that they were backing us," said defenseman Angela Ruggiero (Simi
Valley, Calif.).
The team will live and train full time at the Olympic Training Center in
Lake Placid and play a complete season schedule against international and
college competition, and Canadian professional teams from the National
Women's Hockey League, including 29 games at the Olympic Center in Lake
Placid. Highlights of the season include the Four Nations Cup, Nov. 7-11
in
Salt Lake City, a Holiday Tournament from Dec. 28-31 in Lake Placid, and
a
game against Canada during the National Hockey League All-Star Weekend on
Feb. 2 in Denver.
The team will also prepare for the 2001 International Ice Hockey
Federation
Women's World Championship, to be held April 2-8 in Minneapolis-St. Paul,
Minn.

Hello
I have a question about lacing - I was going to search our archives because 
I'm sure it's been discussed before but the archives seem to be "down". I 
have recently been deliberately missing a couple of pairs of alternate 
eyelets when lacing my skates. It is much more comfortable (I initially saw 
it on someone else's skates). However, I have been told it will "ruin" my 
skates. Is this true? I think the problem with my skates is that they are 
too narrow (Mega brand) - because I recently bought a pair of second hand 
Bauers (AUS$3.00 - kinda old, not sure - it says "Premier" on the back and 
has a Canadian flag) which are quite comfy, wide and pain-free.
The Australian season has basically ended - our local competition ended last 
month and our Sydney based competition ends soon. We restart around May 
2001. I will do figure classes over the summer - lots of fun in hockey 
skates!
Regards
Christine

revamp of the Canberra Ice Hockey (CIH) web page/my web design course)

Hi all! Another season is finally upon us! It should be a very exciting year 
all the way around. Hopefully Team USA can pull out the WWHC in Minnesota in 
April. Any ticket info on this yet???????

I have a question for all the keen eyed people here in the USA. On the Chevy 
commercial that is running now, the one where it states how Chevrolet is 
behind the Olympics and the USA athletes. The girl doing situps right at the 
beginning of the commercial, does anyone know if that's Team USA's Alana 
Blahoski?? It certainly looks like her! It caught my eye the other day but I 
cannot confirm if that's her or not. 

If anyone knows, please respond!

Yes, it is Alana Blahoski.  It looks like she is also the hockey player
taking shots.

National Champions Get Underway This Weekend
Coming of the 2000 American Women's College Hockey Alliance national
championship last season, Minnesota begins the 2000-01 season this weekend
with a home-and-home series against Western Collegiate Hockey
Association-Women's League rival St. Cloud State.

The season-opener for both teams is Saturday, beginning at 3:05 p.m., at the
National Hockey Center in St. Cloud. Game two is slated for a 3:05 p.m.
start Sunday at Mariucci Arena.

Season Preview
The Gopher Women's Hockey team wrote a new chapter in the history books of
the Women's Athletics Department at the University of Minnesota last season,
claiming the first national championship in the department's history.

The title was also the culmination of four years of work by head coach Laura
Halldorson, who began building the program in the fall of 1996, a year
before Minnesota had a team to put on the ice.

Now, in their fourth season as a team, the Gophers have the enviable task of
trying to become the first team in women's college hockey history to repeat
as national champions. This year's title, however, has special significance
as the NCAA will be hosting its first championship in the sport.

Adding to the fact that 2001 will usher in the first NCAA Women's Ice Hockey
Championship, Mariucci Arena has been chosen as the site of the inaugural
event. The semifinals are scheduled for March 23 and the finals for March
25.

In its hunt for that title, Minnesota will return 15 letterwinners while
adding a group of nine rookies to a squad that posted a 32-6-1 record last
season en route to the American Women's College Hockey Alliance National
Championship.

Goaltending is always a key ingredient in winning, and the Gophers boast one
of the nation's best in senior Erica Killewald (Troy, Mich./Troy).  After
struggling early last season, she went 10-1-1 down the stretch and saved her
best for last, stopping 74 of 78 shots in two ACHA Championship games,
including a 34-save effort in the championship game, to earn tournament most
valuable player honors.

With 54 career wins and a 1.78 goals against average, Killewald enters the
season as the team's number one goalie. She has ranked among the top three
goalies nationally in shutouts in each of the last three seasons and has
more wins than any other active collegiate netminder.

"I think we're returning one of the top goalies in the nation," head coach
Laura Halldorson said of her senior netminder. "We're looking for her to
continue what she's been doing for the last three years. She's both
physically and mentally gifted and can make the difference in big games."

On the blueline, the Gophers sport five seniors, but lose the services of
2000 WCHA defensive player of the year Winny Brodt, who will miss her senior
season after being selected to play for the U.S. National Select Team. That
team will visit Mariucci Arena for a pair of exhibition games, Jan. 19-20,
against Minnesota.

Despite missing 11 games due to injury last season, Brodt was second in the
nation among defense with 37 assists and was one of six players on the team
to score 50 points, a school record for defense.

"Obviously we're losing a very talented player," Halldorson said. "That will
have an impact on our team, but if it had to happen, this is the best time
for it to happen because we have depth on defense and can absorb this loss."

Two-time All-American senior Courtney Kennedy (Woburn, Mass./Buckingham,
Browne & Nichols) will lead the veteran group of blueliners. A second-team
All-WCHA and AWCHA Championship all-tournament selection, she chalked up a
career-high 29 assists and led the team with a plus/minus rating of +50 last
season.

Also returning on the blueline for Minnesota are seniors Angela Borek
(Burnsville, Minn./Burnsville), Emily Buchholz (Waupun, Wis./Waupun), Megan
Milbert (South St. Paul, Minn./South St. Paul) and Kelly Olson (Little
Canada, Minn./Roseville Area).

Borek had a career-high 10 assists last season and has been one of the top
plus/minus players on the Minnesota blueline throughout her career. Buchholz
is the team's leader on defense in career games played with 103 while Olson
is second with 100. Milbert, who has also played all three forward
positions, was limited to just 16 games last season, and may not play this
season, due to a shoulder injury.

The group combined for 13 goals and 75 points last season and helped
Minnesota rank fifth nationally in scoring defense and penalty-kill
efficiency.

The depth Halldorson spoke of comes in the form of four rookies who are
being added to the blueline this season. Frosh Melissa Coulombe (St.
Pierre-Jolys, Manitoba/St. Pierre Collegiate), Bethany Petersen
(Bloomington, Minn./Bloomington Jefferson), Cecilia Retelle (Madison,
Wis./Culver Academy) and Stefanie Snow (Bedford, N.H./Cushing Academy) will
all vie for playing time immediately.

"Once we combine the talent we have returning with some of the bright
players we are adding, we will have a tremendous group on defense,"
Halldorson said. "Not only will we be deep, we will be skilled."

Minnesota's biggest strength may be its offensive firepower and, up front,
the Gophers are led by the nation's goal-scoring leader in 1999-2000, senior
Nadine Muzerall (Mississauga, Ontario/Kimball Union Academy). She heads up a
group of nine returning letterwinners, including five seniors.

Muzerall's 49 goals last season, including three at the AWCHA Championship,
led the nation, as did her 27 power-play points, 16 power-play and nine
game-winning goals. The team's most valuable player, however, was not alone
in posting impressive offensive numbers during the championship campaign.

Four other Minnesota forwards topped the 20-goal and 50-point marks, and all
are back.

Senior left wing Ambria Thomas (Fairbanks, Alaska/West Valley) had
career-best numbers with 25 goals and 62 points while earning second-team
All-WCHA honors. She had a pair of five-point games in the month of January
and 39 of her points came after Jan. 1.

Second-team All-WCHA honors were also bestowed upon Thomas' linemate, junior
Laura Slominski (Burnsville, Minn./Burnsville), who had 25 goals and 59
points. She lead the nation with six short-handed assists and tied for the
national lead with eight short-handed points.

Sophomore Ronda Curtin (Roseville, Minn./Roseville Area) was second on the
team with 26 goals and tallied 53 points during her rookie season. Her 11
power-play goals ranked her third nationally and were the most in the nation
by a frosh.

Junior Tracy Engstrom (Willmar, Minn./Willmar), one of the team's
co-captains this season, also scored 53 points, with 23 goals and 30
assists. Four of her goals came during the WCHA tournament and earned her
all-tournament honors.

Senior Kris Scholz (Hugo, Minn./Stillwater) is the team's leader, in her
fourth year as a captain. She provided solid, two-way play last year and has
been among the top 10 scorers in the nation twice during her career.

Senior Betsey Kukowski (Apple Valley, Minn./Shattuck-St. Mary's) also
returns to the lineup along with sophomores Gwen Anderson (North St. Paul,
Minn./North St. Paul) and Alyson Sundberg (St. Paul, Minn./Roseville Area).

Kukowski turned in a solid second-half season last year, scoring 11 points
with a +13 rating after Jan. 1. Anderson had five assists during her rookie
campaign, while Sundberg scored a pair of goals and had three assists.

The group of 10 returning forwards will be joined by newcomers Kelsey Bills
(Carstairs, Alberta/Hugh Sutherland), La Toya Clarke (Pickering,
Ontario/Dunbarton Secondary), Jerilyn Glenn (Ham Lake, Minn./Forest Lake)
and Tracy Palinsky (Port Elgin, Ontario/Notre Dame Secondary).

"Obviously, we return some great players on offense," Halldorson said. "But
we are also adding a talented group of first-year student-athletes to that
nucleus.

"We will possess talent, experience, depth, speed and character at the
forward position. I think they will be fun to watch."

Minnesota will make its run at the NCAA title by returning nearly 88 percent
of its point production from last season, including five 50-point scorers,
and five of six defense, along with a goalie who has posted more career wins
than any other active collegiate goalie.

Lofty goals will be the order of the day for the Gophers in 2000-01, and
they have every reason to believe those goals are attainable.

"Obviously, it would be tremendous to repeat what we did at the national
championship last year," Halldorson said. "It would be extra special to do
so in our own rink.

"We also have some unfinished business in regards to winning the WCHA
regular-season and playoff championships.

"It's exciting to have this much talent," Halldorson added. "Our goal is to
blend everyone together and try to put together a lineup that will be
difficult to defend.

"It won't be easy, though. It's going to take hard work, discipline and a
committment to excellence. No longer are we the underdogs."

St. Cloud State Recently
The Huskies opened the season with a 6-3 exhibition loss at home to the
University of Regina on Saturday afternoon. Regina scored three times in a
one minute, 14 second span early in the second period, including a pair of
short-handed goals, to take a 4-0 lead. Kobi Kawamoto's short-handed goal at
11:39 of the second period, along with short-handed tallies by teammates
Amanda Mathiason and Fiona McLeod, drew St. Cloud State to within one goal
with 14:20 to play.

The visitors responded with a goal at 8:42 of the final period and a
power-play goal into an empty net with six seconds remaining to clinch the
victory. Laura Gieselman stopped 21 shots for the Huskies, who held a 36-27
advantage in shots on goal.

Muzerall to Return From Canadian Camp
Left wing Nadine Muzerall returns this week from the eight-day Canadian
National Team evaluation camp in Calgary, Alberta.

The 34-player camp ends Monday, Oct. 9, with the last of four intrasquad
games. Muzerall scored twice in the first game, including the game-winner,
to lead the red team to a 5-1 win over the white Wedensday. Friday, she
scored the game9s lone goal in a 1-0 red victory.

She Tops 'Em All
With 57 career victories, goalie Erica Killewald is the winningest active
college goalie heading into the 2000-01. She was named the most valuable
player of the AWCHA National Championship last year and, in 1998-99, led the
nation in both goals against average (1.24) and save percentage (.947).

Stalking 100
After scoring 59 points last season, a 27-point jump from her rookie
campaign, Laura Slominski needs just nine points to reach the century mark
for her career.

Last year, she led the nation in short-handed assists (6) and tied for the
national lead in short-handed points (8). She also ranked 10th in total
points (59) and assists (34).

The Series
Minnesota has won all six meetings between the two teams since both have
been varsity opponents. During that time, the Gophers have outscored St.
Cloud State 50-4.

Four of those six games have been contested at Mariucci Arena, where
Minnesota outscored the Huskies 35-1. In the two games at the National
Hockey Center, both of which came last season, the Gophers have outscored
St. Cloud State 15-3.

When Last We Met
Minnesota claimed 5-0 and 5-2 wins in a home-and-home series, Feb. 18-19,
2000. The opener, at Mariucci Arena, saw five different players score goals
for the Gophers, three of which came in the final period as Minnesota
outshot the Huskies 18-2.

St. Cloud State clung to the Gophers at home Saturday but Minnesota's three
first-period goals and a 51-15 advantage in shots on were too much for the
Huskies to overcome.

She's the Boss
Head coach Laura Halldorson begins her 11th season as head coach with a
career record of 141-92-16. Her three-year record at Minnesota is 82-17-7.
She has led the Gophers to the AWCHA National Championship each year, with
fourth- and third-place finishes prior to last year's national title.

A 1985 graduate of Princeton, Halldorson was a three-time All-Ivy League
selection and led the Tigers to the Ivy title each year. She was also a
member of four national club champions with the Minnesota Checkers and was
part of the 1987 U.S. National Women's Team.

A past president of the American Women's Hockey Coaches Association,
Halldorson was the AHCA National Coach of the Year in 1998 and was named the
Minneapolis/University Rotary Club Citizen of the Year last year.

The head coach at Colby College for seven years, she amassed a record of
59-75-9 while guiding the White Mules. In 1996, she was named the ECAC
Women9s Co-Coach the New England Hockey Writers' Coach of the Year.

Guiding the Huskies
In her third year behind the St. Cloud State bench is Kerry Brodt
Wethington. A 1995 graduate of St. Cloud State, she was a four-year
letterwinner in golf and a 1992 All-American in the sport. She has
accumulated a career record of 21-31-5.

Next Up
Minnesota is home for a pair of WCHA games next weekend, hosting Ohio State,
Oct. 21-22, at 2:05 p.m.
