Kyle - what's your e-mail address???
Hey everyone -
The mostly women's team in Milwaukee that plays in the 5-Star men's
league had their second win of the season last night against the
Hockey Docs (Kodak). Hockey Docs are leading the C2 level with only
two losses. Normally, they are an extremely chippy and cheap team, but
seemed to be missing their most obnoxious players last night. The
final score was 8-3, so not only did we beat them, but we played a
very good game, too. They had no penalties and we had four. It was
even 5 on 3 for a minute or so, and we still held 'em!
If anyone is interested in the stats of the team and what teams play
and the levels of play, check out: www.distributechmfg.com - and click
on the 5-Star Hockey logo.

Sorry, Anne, but there is no way I would subscribe to a magazine associated
with Sports Illustrated, because of their swimsuit issue. Do you think
there is any hope of getting them to abandon it?

Please do not reply to the entire list when going off-subject. But I must
comment anyway -- if SI wants to have a swimsuit issue and there is a market
for it, why stop them? It's YOUR choice to buy (or not buy) the product.
On another note:
If anyone plays on a team in Waterloo, Ontario please e-mail me! I have a
contact for the Rec league there and am waiting on some information to be
sent to me but I'm just a little anxious to find out how things work up
there!

I replied to the whole list becaause I thought others on the list might be
interested. I assume that women who are interested in hockey might also be
interested in issues around women's sports.

Exactly. Which is why I won't buy it.

Hi everyone-
I'm trying to help out an AOL member who wants to play roller hockey in Ohio-
preferably in the Cincinnati or Dayton area... All my link suggestions and my
old league listings didn't come up with any womens or coed leagues.
Does anyone on the list have any suggestions of places to check or contact?
Thanks in advance.

Subject: UPDATE : Milwaukee Revolution ROCK
Hey all.. Just a little shameless bragging about my Hockey Team.
The Milwukee Revolution is a co-ed (about equal in term of numbers)
team that plays in a mens non-check Adult Hockey League in and around
Milwaukee.
of which I am a proud member of.. ( I play mostly wing)
On Wednesday night after several very frustrated meeting with out dread
arch rivals
(we lost all of the previous meetings to them by at least 5 or more
goals)
We, the players of the Milwaukee Revolution Finally Beat the Kodak
(Hockey) Doctors
and beat them we did.. 8-3... HOW SWEET IT IS..
"the Hockey Doctors" as they are known.. are the worst sportmen in our
entire league. They have no idea about the true spirt of Hockey.
I know that this may not be the proper place for such an anouncement but
I just had to share the news... It felt so good .. we played like
champions
Games like that have turned me into a hockey addict. I just love the
game..
and sometimes when you work hard and everyone is playing to the best of
their abilites... you just have one of those special games..
I feel that we can now contend for the Stanely Cup..
Thanks for your time... and back our regular scheuduled topics of WIH
On cloud 9 and rising

From the Blue Line for March 4, 1999
with Maine head coach Rick Filighera and Deron Treadwell
The University of Maine Lady Black Bears dropped another pair of games,
this time to Cornell, 5-1 on Friday and 4-0 on Saturday. The Black Bears
have now lost four straight games.
"We are playing with no confidence," said Coach Filighera. "We had a
chance on Friday, but could not generate enough offense. We are just not
good enough right now to win games without bringing our 'A' game."
There were a few bright spots in Filighera's mind. First, is this week's
unsung hero of the week, sophomore defenseman Kelly Nelson. The South
Lyon, Michigan native is Maine's best defenseman and has notched 8 goals
and 12 points from the blue line. Nelson was a four-year captain for the
Metro Flyers where she had 18 goals and 30 assists and won state
championships in 1995 and 1998. Filighera said Nelson played her best
defense of the year and really cleared the zone and used the glass well.
Once again goaltender Amanda Cronin had flashes of brilliance. In the
third period of Saturday's 4-0 loss to Cornell, the Black Bears broke down
defensively due to poor penalty killing and Cronin faced 31 shots in the
stanza. The freshman from York, Maine made 30 saves, many of the
spectacular variety. Cronin now is 8-11 and has a 3.93 goals against
average and a .893 save percentage on the season and will get the start in
both games this weekend.
"Cronin was great in the third period on Saturday," Filighera recalled.
"When she focuses and sees the puck, she is as good as anyone."
But that consistency has been missing from practically all of the Black
Bears, which has produced a rollercoaster season at times. It will all
come to an end this weekend with a pair of games at fellow newcomer
Niagara. After arguably the best weekend performance in a sweep of Boston
College three weeks ago, Maine has been blown out in four straight games by
Brown and the Big Red.
"Inconsistent play comes from everyone, not just freshman," Filighera said.
"We lack leadership right now. Not one player on this team played
Division I hockey before, so they have nobody to look to [in order] to pull
out of this [slump].
"As coaches we are all new to Division I also. We do not know what to
expect from each team. Now we have film on all the players. We can look
at tendencies, break down face-offs, and we can make up game plans when we
get new players next year."
With the playoffs out of reach and the Black Bears certain to finish their
first season below .500, it is time to look toward the future. Maine sits
12-17-1 overall and 6-17-1 in the ECAC, respectable numbers for a first
year program, but with a roster of practically all freshmen, there is
hardly anywhere to go, but up.
"I am happy with our overall record and plan on finishing higher next
season," Filighera noted.
With the next signing period beginning April 7, Maine has broad goals for
the recruiting season. Filighera said his goal is to get larger on
defense, pick up a few more goalscorers and one more goaltender.
"When we get new players next year we will have watched them for two years
instead of six months and we'll have a better idea of their abilities and
consistencies," Filighera said. "The new players will put pressure on our
sophomores next season - Be consistent or watch from the stands. When we
can evaluate with more Division I talent on a daily basis, that's when
players will be motivated. Players in the stands will be working hard to
get into the lineup and they will earn a spot."
But before the offseason begins, there are two more games against the
Purple Eagles. Niagara is 10-14-2 overall and 8-14-2 in the league, 5
points ahead of Maine in ninth-place. While Maine cannot finish ahead of
Niagara, bragging rights will be on the line this weekend for who really is
the best new program in the ECAC.
Niagara has chosen to build its team from the goal out. Tania Pinelli
boasts a 3.51 goals against average and one of the best save percentages in
the league at .913. Clearly as Pinelli goes, so does the Purple Eagles.
Considered perhaps the best goalie in last year's recruiting class, Niagara
relies on Pinelli to get the job done, and currently she is hot. In her
last six games, she has allowed 3 goals or less in all of them as Niagara
went 4-1-1.
Brooke Bradburn is Niagara's top point scorer with 17 goals and 13 assists
for 30 points, while Stephanie Romain has an 11-11-22 line to lead the
Purple Eagles.
The Black Bears are led by one of the best freshmen tandems in the ECAC of
Raffi Wolf and Kira Misikowetz. Wolf ranks eighth in the ECAC in scoring
with 30 goals, 12 assists for 32 points, but has been in a bit of slump
over the last two weeks. Misikowetz has a 12-27-39 line good for 12th in
the league. These two carry the load for the Black Bears as Maine has no
other players who have even eclipsed the 20-point mark. Colleen Baude is
third on the team in scoring with 18 points (7 goals, 11 assists).
Statistically the teams are very even. Maine scores 2.83 goals per game
and gives up 3.63, while Niagara scores 2.38 gpg and allows 3.38. Niagara
takes more penalties than any team in the league at 13.9 minutes per game.
Maine might be able to capitalize with a power play clicking at a 15.4
percent rate. The second period could be key as Maine has scored 33 goals
in the second period to Niagara's 17, but Maine has allowed 10 more goals
in the stanza.
"They pack it in on defense," Filighera said. "They have a fantastic
goalie and they are playing with confidence."
This game takes on some added importance for Filighera because Niagara is
near his hometown.
"We have more talent, but they play with more desire," Filighera said,
comparing Maine to Niagara. "They caught some scheduling breaks by playing
Princeton late and have a hot goalie. We played better against the better
teams."
Everyone will know which team is better come Sunday.

CANADIAN WOMEN DEFEAT TEAM
SWEDEN IN WOMEN'S WORLD
CHAMPIONSHIP PRE-COMPETITION
MATCH-UP
STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN -- Canada's National Women's Team beat
Sweden
3-0 in the first of two exhibition games against Team Sweden
as Canada
prepares for the upcoming 1999 World Women's Hockey
Championship in
Espoo, Finland on March 8-14.
Obviously weary from the trip overseas, the team was sluggish
through most of
the first period before Danielle Goyette and Jennifer
Botterill, both of Calgary,
AB, scored in a 1:06 span with three minutes to play in the
period.
Goyette sped by the defense, circled the net and tucked the
puck by goaltender
Lotta Gotehesson at 16:44 of the first period. At 17:50,
Botterill took advantage
of Lori Dupuis' strong work along the boards by firing Dupuis'
pass over the
goaltender's shoulder.
Dupuis of Williamstown, ON added a goal in the second period
following a
scramble in front of the net, which was all Canada needed as
they moved to a
victory over Sweden.
"We played with a lot of heart, but our legs couldn't always
keep up," said
Daniele Sauvageau, Team Canada's head coach. "Our team stayed
concentrated
on the task at hand. The game also permitted us to add certain
components to
our game, refine our forechecking systems and certain face-off
situations, " added
Sauvageau.
Kim St-Pierre stopped all 24 shots she faced in net, including
a point blank save
off Erika Holst in the third period to preserve her shutout.
Canada plays Team Sweden again Saturday, March 6th at noon
(Swedish time)
at the Upper Vasby Centrum in Stockholm before leaving for
Espoo, Finland.
