It's kind of difficult to show a link to something that doesn't get covered at all, forget shortchanged. We've even got to the point that a loathsome company like Rogers will not cover (or worse denigrates) a property they don't own, thus denying its existence.
Remember this from two years ago: "in an exhibition game last August, the Carleton Ravens
lost in overtime to the now number one ranked US college team Syracuse (who ironically have a
Canadian youth NT freshman starting for them). In that same tournament the Ravens
beat perennial MM team Wisconsin
That was the same Wisconsin team that lost by one point in the MM semi final. And for our folks still living the myth both NCAA teams played their best players.
