Surprised me, too. Especially since I keep thinking there's new news on committed recruits every time I see this thread pop up. And since I'm commenting here anyway, I just want to say I think some people aren't recognizing the difference between our "team" and our "program". SCSU's 2018-19 "team" is certainly playing better than UND's team. But to compare the entirety of the "programs", I think there can't really be any argument about how that discussion would end.

I initially heard he was likely going to be allowed to play in the WJC, but now I see they officially said he can't play in that.

They also don't know when they missed an offside call, which is really the purpose of the whole "defending team gained possession" rule change. So if a goal is scored, they'll review the tape going backwards until they either see the defending team gaining possession, or the attacking team enter the zone, either onside or offside. Then they'll know if it's a good goal or not. I would guess in most cases zone time isn't really all that long. The situation in last year's tournament game was definitely the exception rather than the rule, in that we held the zone for a long time before the goal was scored. And even that wouldn't take more than a minute to review to see if the other team gained possession during that time. It's only during a challenge that this looked at, anyway.

Yes! Please!

I heard that, too, and laughed.

Did a Union guy just dive on the puck in open ice and cover it for no reason?

You're way ahead of me on NCHC.tv. How are you watching the game?

Care to revise your opinion? If nothing else, the officiating for tonight's Wild game rivals the quality of officiating on Saturday night in Denver.

Thank you

What was the result of the review?

This game is eerily similar to last night's Wild/Preds game.... Just sayin...

That was two years ago. Anybody who would have committed due to that team would still be in high school or juniors.

Root definitely didn't allow it. Denver's contract with Root Sports was in place before the NCHC formed and Root had exclusive rights to the broadcasts. I don't know about Altitude.

The ruling was that the goalie had the puck covered and was pushed into the net. I admit I was staring at the puck during the replays and not paying attention to who was making contact with Larkin.

I was ready to downvote you, until I realized you were quoting yourself.

Jones gets another. 3-0 UND

Nice quick reflexes by Gardner to realize the puck popped out to him and to flip it in without any delay.

Going by the book, like they did last week, it seems like it should be a penalty shot.

Sweet move by Jones!

Who's that announcing tonight?

You’re having a petty argument on a public forum! Anybody has the right to jump in.

This is the difference between “general rule” and “actual rule”.

May have gotten tangled up with somebody but it happened outside the crease.

Horrible call giving him a penalty shot! He did not have anywhere near the separation necessary for that call to be made.

Congrats to Thome on his first win!
