Ally-Turned-Foe Makes the Rockies Pay

Emil Billberg broke into the PHL with the Colorado organization, only to be released after a couple of seasons with the Alaska Aces of the PMHL. Billberg, now with the NorthStars, scored a goal with 3-minutes and change left in last night's game sending the home crowd home disappointed with a 3-2 loss.

The series, now tied 2-2, heads back to Minnesota for Game 5.

"We met for several hours this morning, it was a tough one," coach Tim Hunter mentioned, referring to his coaching staff deciding whether to make any line-up changes for Game 5, "but we're gonna go with the same line-up for this road game and we'll see what happens."

Hunter went on to assure the media that Sergei Gonchar will sit out Game 5, Nick Schultz will again draw in as his replacement. Gonchar is nursing a sore shoulder and will likely be available to Game 6 back in Denver.

For the Colorado Complainer, this has been Nathan Livingston.
