ED BELFOUR NIGHT IN DALLAS
If ever there was a goaltender that personified the stereotype that goalies are a different breed:moody, superstitious, and routine oriented, it would be Ed Belfour. His quirks, combined with his undying work ethic and passion to succeed, made him a Stanley Cup champion and one of the game’s greats – and recently a member of the Hockey Hall Of Fame.
While other goaltenders...

Bill Meltzer: Star Gazing: 2/5/12
It wasn't exactly a statement game, but the Dallas Stars skated off with two desperately needed points after tying the Minnesota Wild, 1-1, and then prevailing in a shootout after a successful late-game penalty kill got the game to overtime.
Kari Lehtonen was tremendous in goal for the Stars, who honored Hockey Hall of Fame goalie Ed Belfour in a pregame ceremony. The big...

Neb-Omaha goalie Dayn Belfour wants own identity (AP)
Dayn Belfour walks and talks like his father. He does not, however, play goalie like newly inducted Hockey Hall of Famer Ed Belfour. That's not a knock against Dayn. Few men have worked between the pipes the way "Eddie the Eagle" did in a 16-year NHL career highlighted by a Stanley Cup and two Vezina Trophies.

February Last Games (Sioux 7)
Last week in the WCHA the playoff picture cleared up some. With UND sweeping UAA and DU sweeping UW, both teams have locked themselves into home ice. CC's sweep of UM helped them into 3rd place, but have only 3-games left. UMD took 3pts from MTU to help them stay in the race for home ice. MSU-Mankato is pretty much guaranteed a road trip to start the playoffs which means they...
