Like many people going to university, the Cougars are still struggling to find their identity.
For most of Friday night, they thought that their role was that of a selfish team prone to temper outbursts and taking needless penalties against the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds. Thankfully for them, the next night they tried to play a little hockey.

What is happening to the game of Hockey these days anyways?
There have already been three scoreless ties in the NHL this season. Moving out those red lines and enforcing the size of goalie equipment didn't work. Is it the coaches, the skill level or what? This columnist believes that it is a combination of factors. One of them is the speed of the game. There just isn't enough room on the ice anymore. The NHL covets large, speedy players. This causes more movement which results in less space. It'd be nice to see these guys on an Olympic size arena. Now that would be some hockey.
