Michigan players in the WJC & Whalers update
Kevin Porter, Mike Brown, Matt Hunwick, T.J. Hensick, and Al Montoya of the University of Michigan’s hockey team were selected to the national USA team for the World Junior Championship. Montoya made 30 saves on 34 shots in a win over Russia, 5-4. Hunwick got the assist on the first goal and Porter, who was a late addition to Team USA, earned the game-winning assist. Porter and Hensick each notched a goal over Switzerland to make the final 6-4. Montoya had 31 saves.

Hunwick recently received the USCHO’s Offensive Player of the Week (Dec. 14) and CCHA’s Defenseman of the Week (Dec. 13) honor. Hensick got the CCHA’s Offensive Player of the Week (Dec. 13). Porter received CCHA’s Rookie of the Week award on December 6th.
The Plymouth Whalers beat the Brampton Battalion today, 6-2, to put them in a tie for first place in the West Division. Their current record is 12-14-4. I’m going to their game on Thursday against the Sarnia Sting and should have some pictures by this weekend!

I agree,
I love NHL. and recently I have bought stock in it. Not like real stock on Wall street, but a stock market that is strictly for sports.
You have seen it? Its pretty cool. You buy issues for your favorite teams and you make real money. Not like a fake stock simulator. I cash out Dividends each time the team wins. Also I can sell my team stock when the price goes up.
