Great article by Theresa Sispak. Make sure you read the 2nd half of the article in College Hockey News.
CHN doesn't allow us to reprint whole stories so we provide the link for the remainder.
If you have Facebook.com access you can see the site his fiance posted. Lots of cool photos and mesages from his family and friends.

You need to get married. Find a nice boy named Smith. :-)
Thank you for putting up stuff like this! It is so nice to hear that Eric has fans all over Colorado! Keep your fingers crossed for him this next week!
