Because they had to spell something other than M I N N E S O T A?

Thanks, but I meant average number of PKs per game in response to the PP # that was presented.

What is the Penalty Kill Stat for both?

Okay then, all of our expectations were too high.

It wouldn't have to be this way if the quality of WCHA officiating had kept up to the improved quality of the league over the past several decades. I follow the CHL and Tier Two Junior leagues in Eastern Ontario fairly closely and when I go to a game I know that I can expect officiating that is both predictable and consistent. I have never heard fans from either team have to say "Oh no, we have Anderson tonight so the calls will be made up" or "It's Shepard and his marbles tonight". Do you know of any other league where this is such a blatant problem

If you read furhter back in this thread, when Lee got walked by a "PLUG", you will see that I totally agree with you. My message was aimed at the fans who chose to bring Finley into your exchange of viewpoints. My message to them is that the expectations of the two players in question were quite different.

I think we can all agree that the expectations of what we thought Lee would bring to this team were far different from the expectations for Finley. Given the upcoming weekend I say let's kill this thread and the player bashing. Save all that bashing for the dirty Gophers.

Regarding the first point, we all know that the Gopher Coffin is usually rolled out in late March. Regarding the second point, when UND wins we will all know exactly how the Gopher brass felt about the officiating if the inidividual in question disappears from next seasons WCHA official's roster. Regardless of whether he does a good job or not.

There is nothing decent about him other than the career he might have in the ECHL.

I don't care which night Lammy is run, we will get to watch another Gopher punching bag in action.

Tiny Cups

I wonder if the Don will have his team running Lammy too. If so, I am looking forward to the outcome.

Lammy would have had to demonstrate control of the puck for the whistle to blow. It was in the net before the whistle blew.

If I remember the play correctly, a Sioux D-man had checked the Beaver to the ice and it was merely momentum that sent both crashing into Lammy. A good example of a player getting rewarded for going hard to the net, and the replay also showed that it happened before the whistle.

Dirty take out by the Beaver. Give him the intent to injure!

Asking if he is Goon was expectable but that doesn't make it acceptable.

Lee has to stop being a liability if this team is going to succeed. That was terrible.

The other first rounder from his year group joined him with that boneheaded move.

When a first round draft pick gets beat by a "PLUG" questions are going to be raised.

Aren't they in action every night

With a gritty assist from Oshie. Nice

I am afraid that is going to be a BSU goal

Do you think one of the Pies could straighten it back out for him.

A bench clearing brawl to end their game would be nice.
