Puh-leeze

A site that bills itself as "Inside College Hockey" came up with a list of the 16 Greatest College Hockey Coaches Of All Time. Where does the great Gino Gasparini rank? Umm, he doesn't, according to them. Let's see - Gino won three national championships in an eight-season stretch at North Dakota. Only Vic Heyliger (six) and Murray Armstrong (five) have more. Gino is even with Bob Johnson, Herb Brooks, and John MacInnes (three each.)

You honestly want to tell me that Jeff Sauer (.549 career winning percentage vs. 608 for Gino), Snooks Kelley (3-8 in Frozen Four games vs. 7-2 for Gino), and Ronnie "Big Game" Mason top Gasparini?
