Two very special hockey stories!

Post by Falcon Fanatic »

Inspirational stuff! One of the many, many reasons that college hockey is such a special sport!!

Awesome video on the Bronco Hockey team and their support of a young cancer patient and his family:

And a related story from the RPI hockey team:

And what is a really weird connection, is that the coaches of these two schools are best friends, former teammates/roommates at Ferris State, and could play each other in the Midwest Regionals if they both get win their first round game! Kind of cool!!!

(NOTE: Blashill's name was spelled wrong in the whole article!! Blasdell? Really??? Nice job there, Ed Weaver.... #-o )
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."
