To me, minor league hockey is pretty uninteresting. You'll find far better games in major college and especially in the Ontario and Quebec major junior leagues. The NCAA final is tomorrow night and should be a great game Boston College-Notre Dame.

For my money, I'd much rather see a Stanley Cup Finals game than a World Series game, the Super Bowl or the Breeders Cup.

Alpo..I said Mad Russian, but I think he was the mad Fin.

Doubt it was Keenan..he hasn't coached them since '94 or so

Trent Yawney sounds about right..Kev?

He coached the Norfolk Admirals for a few years. He was a member at a private club I used to work at. Used to play together....taught his son and daughter in junior clinics...etc. He was still in great shape then...looked like he could lace 'em up anytime.

Yawney almost got killed in the late 80s. I remember watching the hit, brutal.

Id rather watch a good AAA game, or Jr A game than minor league hockey.
