I don't know, of course, but
I think Red and Hensick (sp) were pissed about the 10 minute misconduct and truly believe that lost them the game. In that scenario, Hensick (sp) lost the game. There was no Fighting Sioux player involved in that call.
Maybe it was easier to be disrespectful to the Fighting Sioux team than it would have been to say his star pulled a bonehead stunt that may have cost them the game.
