The NCHC claims the officials are graded and that the director of officiating is thorough in reviewing their work. Just watched replay of the game and I can’t believe that happened. If the page just gets turned on that one then we do have the worst officiating system in place in college hockey.
Five minute majors need to be reviewed before a decision is made to remove a player from the game. I went slow motion on Smith’s and if Plante doesn’t fall after running into UND’s iron man champ I don’t think it even gets called.
