Hockey

• Two games in the league and Saint Mary's Mike Danton is already provided grist for debate, if not bulletin board material:

  "To be honest with you, I thought Acadia played a better game than UNB did against us ... UNB was consistent, they work consistent, but I don't think their best was as good as Acadia's best and I don't think it's anywhere near our best.
  
  "The last two games we just haven't worked as a team and it's resulted in two losses," Danton .. Between the top three teams - UNB, Acadia and us - any one of those teams can win a game against each other on any given night. It's not clear cut."

  In a sense,he was complimenting UNB for avoiding lapses. Calm down. (Daily Gleaner)

• Team World lost 17-0 to Team USA in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl on Saturday in Fort Lauderdale. NFL Network's Rich Eisen did plug the University of Saskatchewan at one point and even pronounced it correctly. He had a little trouble saying Canadian kicker Tyler Crapigna's name.
