Thanks! > > Becka The disparity in play is really about experience and skill development. The longer you play the more apt you areto understand the strategy and tactics of the game. Also the longer you play the better your basic required skills become. Along with that the younger you are to start development of those skills the better chance you have to be a better player. With all of this you need ot have some athletic ability that is in line with the skills etc., necessary to play the sport. Same with any sport. From what I've seen all the women have tremendous desire and motivation, otherwise they wouldn't be there.

Consider the source. Also, from a friend who is a sports journalist with a well respected paper - all his colleagues who never noticed women's hockey are now rushing to be its champion. Why? Well, there are only so many berths to Nagano and everyone is looking to consolidate their positions in the quest to get (paid) tickets to the Olympics. Maybe being a naysayer is this guy's gimmick.

I hope you sent this message to Steve! I recently read in the Toronto Star that in 1990 a Canadian delagation to an IIHF meeting presented a video to a German fellow, (I can't remember his name, he is now the President of the IIHF), and he accused the Canadians of tampering with the video saying it was playing on fast forward etc. and that females cannot skate that quickly and so on... Last nite our paper had an article on the Chinese vs Canada game and it said that because the scores are so out of sync with Canada's opponents, that the future of the World Championships is in jeopardy... Wow, if you go back and look at the score differentials from the Olympics men's hockey in the early years, you'll see that this isn't such an oddity! The women's game is getting better all the time, and other countries are just beginning to be competitive. We just need time! I find it very insulting to question Women's Hockey as having Olympic status when Beach Volleyball, ping pong and other sports have Olympic status... ---------- > From: email@hidden > To: Subscribers to > Subject: re: journalists > Date: Friday, April 04, 1997 4:39 PM > > Hello again, > I would to express myself on a certain newspaper article I just read on the > net from a certain Steve Buffery from the Toronto sun.

>Blackthorn, I think that Colby has just updated and moved their Band Web page to bigger and better places. You should check it, however, they don't have to cool pictures of the members in action at a concert or anything like that.

Canada tied the game in the second period to tie 1 to 1. The winning goal was scored with 24 seconds left in the game. To add to the excitement Dupuis took a penalty immediately after the goal to give the Finns the man advantage along with pulling the goalie to play 6 on 4, the face-off was in Canada's end. USA 6 China 0 There was little doubt in the outcome of the game right from the start. USA going up 3 to 0 in the first period. The game was a display of not very esthetically pleasing hockey.
