Highly sought after recruit Drew Shore decided to come to DU instead of playing major junior hockey in Canada for the Chilliwack Bruins who held his WHL rights. Looks like Shore made the right decision, because the Bruins franchise is in disarray. Chilliwack was 19-46-2 last season.
In the mist of the Avalanche house cleaning yesterday, former DU volunteer assistant coach P.J. DeLuca was let go along with head coach Tony Granato and three others. It appears DeLuca was fired so that Pierre Lacroix could hire his son, Eric. DeLuca was in charge video for the Avs. Let's hope he gets a new gig ASAP.
NESN in Boston thinks the Boston Bruins may select Drew Shore with the 25th pick in the 1st Round of the NHL Draft this summer.
Two-time Olympic medal-winning figure skater Michelle Kwan will graduate from the University of Denver on Saturday. Kwan will receive a degree in international studies with a minor in political science.

The Avs appear to be a complete trainwreck. Sad days for a once proud and elite franchise.
I would also that while I know pro sports is a business, the manner in which the team treated Granato is despicable. What a joke. I would never want to coach in that type of atmosphere.
Woody Paige gave a shout out to PJ DeLuca and his unjust dismissal by the Avs yesterday.
Its at the 21 minute mark of the 6/3 episode.

If the Bruins pick Shore that would be a great move by my favorite team.
I see Shore going to the Bruins, Blackhawks or Red Wings in the 1st Round or Islanders, Avs early in the 2nd.
Should be interesting.
Shore to the Wings would make me cry.
