Anyone know if this game and pregame ceremony is online anywhere? I've looked, but couldn't find it.
"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."

Well, I lucked out! I had set the DVR to tape the Kings' game and around 10:20 (after watching UAH sweep NMU), I checked the beginning of the feed and then backed it up further and caught the whole ceremony! Very cool to see Dan Bylsma there, along with Nelson Emerson. As they were introducing the event, they said Rob got his start at Bowling Green University. Nice to get a mention out there! :supz:
