Cornell skates in tonight, loaded with Canadian talent and N.H.L.-type rough play. Lance Nethery, who had five points against Harvard in the 6-3 loss Tuesday night, may be the best forward in the nation. Peter Shier, who coach Dick Bertrand says has "the hardest shot in college hockey," is a blue-chip prospect as a pro defensemen.

This time there is no struggle and no enlightenment: Bertrand is just a flip Don Juan-a stock comic figure who resolves all of life's dilemmas by retreating to adolescence. Despite Denner's amusingly self-effacing performance, it is hard to care about him or, worse still, the women he damages along his selfish way.
