Bishop gone

Maine goalie Ben Bishop signed with the St. Louis Blues and will report to the team's AHL affiliate Peoria Rivermen for the remainder of the season.

Bishop, a junior, went 13-18-3 at Maine this season with a 2.43 goals-against average and a .920 save percentage.

His career record at Maine was 55-34-7 with a 2.29 goals-against.

Bishop was originally a third round selection by St. Louis, chosen 85th overall in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.

He grew up outside of St. Louis, and attended Chaminade High School in St. Louis before playing junior hockey and then heading to Maine.

Not a big deal. As long as this team has Whitehead at the helm, they'll keep rolling along. Let the Scott Darling era begin!

Anyhow -- who does Maine play this weekend? Aren't the Hockey East playoffs starting?

Jenn covers the University of Maine for the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram.

A former Portland Pirates beat writer who has covered two winter Olympics for the paper, she will tackle the Maine beat for a fourth year this season.

She has the empty coffee cups, and turnpike mileage receipts littering her
excellent-gas-mileage
Honda Civic to prove it.


Though she is a graduate of rival New Hampshire, she almost never thinks of that 1999 hockey game anymore.
