Watched the Denver game. Didier was on the 3rd pairing and was a regular on the PK. Had a solid game in his own end and phyiscally as he had several nice hits but was on the other end of a few big hits as well. During the game they talked about how the team was winless in the month he was out of the lineup and how they are playing much better with him back in the lineup. He had a high ankle sprain but showed no signs of it as he was skating very well (better then I remember, since this is the first time i've seen him since last season).
On the NCAA free agent front, was impressed with UNO's Matt White, and of course Ryan Walters since he leads the league in scoring. And I really hope management has been keeping an eye on Didier's teammate, the Finnish goalie Juho Olkinuora. I said last year during his Freshman year that he's someone to keep an eye on, but with the numbers he's putting up this season I got to think many NHL teams will be interested in him when he wants to turn pro. Denver looked really good, huge win for them as they moved into a tie for 1st with UNO, so tonights game should be a good one, too bad it's not on tv though.
