Well, I guess the early game experiment didn't pay off....Bold Strategy! LOL

As I said earlier, typical UND tournament game. Conference, NCAA...whichever.

If St Cloud makes the NCAA what are the chances they get sent to Fargo for a matchup against UND. That would pretty much blow!

Wow, starting to look like typical UND tournament play, sad. Better get back in the game.

Can't make good defensive plays anymore without being penalized.

Neat goal! Just put it on net.

Is it just me or does Hammer always say "stoled"; instead of stole or stolen away? It might just be the way I hear it but it drives me nuts!

Lol

I remember these discussions a few months back when Mac had wrist surgery to repair the tendon or whatever it was. People were throwing out diagnoses and incredibly long time-frames for recovery for the type of surgery he was supposedly having. I think many were proven wrong when he was back on the ice just a couple weeks later. While I know that the current injury is completely different and could be lot more severe, I cannot accept forum participants speculated diagnosis and hypothetical time-frames for recovery. Unless I hear substantiated information regarding his prognosis, I will cross my fingers and wait and see what happens. The situation stinks, but hopefully we will see him back. I cannot say that I have ever seen a more impressive 5 on 3 penalty kill, he put it all on the line for the team. If he doesn't make it back, Mac will be behind the scenes offering leadership where he can and the team will be playing their best possible. They are a very impressive team this year.

That is your opinion and I respect it. However Brad Marchand's hit on Sami Salo in the NHL IN 2012 resulted in a 5 game suspension and a $152,000+ fine. His hit resulted in a concussion. Moore's hit could have had at the very minimum resulted in a concussion.

Also, I really can't understand why Moore wasn't given a game misconduct. If the same hit would have resulted in Jewels being stretchered off the ice it would have been. Total BS, so I guess the punishment lies on the way a player lands rather than the illegal hit. Absolutely insane. I Probably sound like a homer, but we seriously need to flood NCHC email accounts with polite emails requesting explanations concerning officiating.

If anyone is interested, NCHC contact emails are easy to find on the website. I am considering writing a note to Don Adam and possibly the commissioner. Aside from the weak goals, horrible officiating clearly robbed the game from UND. There is no excuse to have such poor officiating. If I were a potential recruit that would be a reason to look at Canada. Bad calls happen everywhere, but the seem to be really consistent in the NCAA, and the NCHC has had some real doozies. Last nights crew could quite possibly be the worst I have ever seen.

How can the refs put time on the clock if they didn't even know where the puck was?

If the stripes can't get this right we have a problem....

Are you kidding me

Yep

Moore scored assisted by Leleggia. Nice tap in passed from circle across the top of crease. Goaltender didn't have a chance.

Should have said poor calls have allowed it to get out of hand.

Yep, refs let this get out of hand.

Yes, it will be behind the play and extremely undisciplined as 95% of his penalties are!

I was going to give him some credit on that too!

He needs to ride pine a bit

In general most nights Luke Johnson makes me want to puke. He does the dumbest crap.

What a joke, no tickets here either.....
