I'm with you on this one. I've met him many times and had many conversations with him and he never gives off the impression of anything except pure respect. I understand him getting pumped up for wins at home, but I don't see it happening on the road.
Ok, any rink that is built correctly is 200 feet long
Yea, there are some exceptions, but the difference between NHL and Olympic/International ice is the width, not the length.
Every rink is 200 feet long. The width is the only different (85 feet vs. 100 feet).
Bina was about 2-3 feet in front of the Sioux goal red line, and the goal is 15 feet in front of the redline (per the NCAA rulebook).
So that makes it: 200 feet - 15 feet - 15 feet - 2 feet = 168 foot goal.
It's hilarious. He's got high point scorer on the team, and goal scorer in the league but he's always talking about how all he does is stay out of the way of TJ and JT and let them do their thing.
Fortunatly, their thing is giving him the puck when the other team focuses everything on JT and JT.
Am I the only one who thinks VandeVelde's "holding" penalty was actually interference on the Gophers?
It looked like he was trying to get to the puck but the gopher player wasn't letting him.
Am I just not fully understanding interference?
He pretty much always sounds like that. It takes him far too long to get a thought out. He may know what he's talking about, but he can't actually talk.
Because when it was only played once or twice during a game they would get students screaming at them "play the beer song!"
It was constant complaining that they didn't hear the beer song enough. So now it's a consistant thing. Goal = Beer song.
Can't please everybody and this seemed like a simple way to solve the problem.
Jones didn't have his stick. I saw it flying out of the area of play. After he lost it, it probably got thrown away by a UAA guy and Jones was pissed about that.
I'm not a fan of fighting at all, but if they fight because of what somebody did to THEM it's a bit more understandable.
I don't like when the "enforcer" comes in to fight a guy because they did something to somebody else.
These guys are hockey players. If they can't take the hits, then they shouldn't be playing.
