I do not agree that this is a no win situation for Warroad. It is a win for the community. It is a win for all the kids who will never see an olympic team live. it is a win for the hotels and the restaurants that the team is using. It is a win for girls in the general vicinity of Warroad who come to the game and get to see their idols play live. How many of us can say we played against an Olympic team win for the boys. I have been fortunate enough to see 5 (counting tonight) Olympic teams in Warroad. I have been fortunate enough to see a couple national teams in Warroad. It is a win for USA hockey in general. Look at the WJC the canadians are booing our boys on and off the ice USA hockey needs to generate a following from more than just hockey junkies. I was more into the olympics when I was a kid, because the mens team came to Warroad to play the Lakers I still have all the 1980 team autographs. <p></p><i></i>

Your missing the point

Warroad is being asked to sacrifice a regular season game, which clearly should be an exhibition game in the ways it will be played. The no-check gentlemen's agreement is wrong if the women want to be equal and they want to play young men then they should play young men in that style of play ie: full contact. Yes; no doubt it is a good thing for the town and the dollars.<br><br>Boys against girls...girls agreeing to play with boys under boys rules to get the game....after contract signed girls getting the boys to agree to play by the girls rules....almost sounds like real life.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... m>Renegade Ram</A> at: 1/4/06 7:15 pm<br></i>

That was a close one, I actually thought that the girls would pull a win out up there at the Gardens. I wish I could've witnessed this one. <p></p><i></i>
