Not official but would be happening this summer.
Update: Alex will continue to do UND sports next year, however be prepared for him to miss games if weather prevents him from driving from Sioux Falls.

Every goal should be reviewed and any objective action that normally would have stopped play should overturn a goal. This gets you high stick, hand pass, offside, icing, and a few others.
I'm ok with taking a goal off the board if a liney screws up an icing. If it's too close to call, let it stand but you can easily tell a race to the dots in most cases. Obviously, it should be similar to offside where full control negates it, not just touching the puck.

Question on the policy of showing replays in college hockey. It always annoying the poss out of me when they wouldn’t show replays on the big screens after or during big reviews. We are installing these big monitors yet cut the spectators out of these reviews? Seems like a good way to piss off fans. If I remember they stsrted doing that so they don’t enrage the fans, well the fans should be enraged if they are keeping these reviews from the fans. Just another reason to sit at home and watch the game.... and people still wonder why no one attends games...
It's a conference decision. Up until a few years, Atlantic Hockey didn't have a policy so if you happened to have a video board you could show whatever. Occasionally, the refs would ask you to stop showing something but there was no rule you had to stop.
Now, you're allowed to show it once at full speed and once slowed down if it's questionable, but only before the review is initiated. After the fact, it's usually just shown to confirm the ref's decision for the fans.

Notre Dame would never join the same conference with a school like Michigan and other blue-bloods like Illinois.
The search function on this website is fantastic. Once again, you completely missed the boat about Notre Dame to the B10.

Still waiting for those 4 schools to announce...

Well they signed an eagles cornerback and WR Darius Shepherd today. Haven’t seen any other announcements.
GB only had spots to sign two players so Harris will likely head to Redskins camp.

Like I’ve said before, people will look back and be grateful for what he did but not how he did it.
I don't think that's the case, though. The hockey-only mouthbreathers will always side with anything Engelstad and the faculty will hate a Republican who cut programs.
I don't see a significant movement in the public opinion.

We should have scrounged up some money and sent @Teeder11 to Vikings rookie camp for updates!

I will admit that Kennedy had some faults but I am able to over look them due to his honest assessment of the University as a whole. He made a lot of tough decisions and I believe he put the University in a better position for the future. KEM is just a spoiled B^&*( who doesn't care about the betterment of the University as a whole.
Agreed. If given the option, I'd take Kennedy again for the past 3 years. Made some tough decisions but made the University better for it.

Definitely should have kept the interlocking ND because that was original and never got confused with another team...

Apparently, neither do the players. If you get guys like Svechnikov just flat out not fight, then maybe it changes. The players themselves always bang their sticks against the boards after a fight. The players need to show they care about eliminating it first, then maybe things will change.
That's completely backwards thinking though. Many players feel fighting should be part of the game because it allows them to police dangerous hits themselves. But how many times is there a great open-ice check where two seconds later, the guy who laid a great hit now has to defend himself against punches. How does that make any sense?
The league needs to start penalizing and suspending both dangerous plays and fighting.
A punch to the back of the head like Marchand did could easily cause a concussion, yet he gets no punishment. That's a non defendable move (although Bruins fans are trying their hardest) that should have earned at least 5 games in a new NHL that actually protects its players.

So what is Schlossman’s end game in his constant rants against Bettman? Reminds me of his constant drumbeats about the women’s hockey team. Even if Bettman admitted trauma causes CTE, the players know this and choose to play the game. This can be caused by fighting as well as checking and hits to the head. We saw what happened to Pavelski. In sports like football and hockey it is going to happen. Now if he can prove the teams are forcing their guys to fight, he might have a case.
Once the NHL admits there is a direct connection to CTE and fighting, they'll be opening up to a lot of problems because they haven't done enough to stop players from fighting.
You rarely see punches thrown in football, basketball and baseball yet it's still too common in hockey. Suspend guys for intentionally hitting someone in the head would be a good start.
In every other sport, Marchand would be sitting it out for a while, but clearly the NHL is once again showing it doesn't care about a players brain.

I'd love to see a VGK style as the new Nike swift style.

Would love to see CU and CSU both go D1. That would put 5 D1 schools in Colorado. Unfortunately, they don't both have a place to go. CU and ASU would be good adds to the NCHC after a few years but I don't think that conference should go above 10 or you risk DU and CC leaving for a western conference.
That would actually be really good for college hockey but not so great for the NCHC.
Miami and Western aren't leaving, otherwise you could drop those two, add CU, CSU, ASU and another southwest school. AF would never join because they'll get pounded due to lack of resources.

Except Rigsby wasn't interfered with from covering the puck.
Like I said, I disagreed with the call however the process was correct.

The IIHF story makes no sense. Here's why.
USA took a tripping penalty on the play. It was on the goalie. Yes, the tripping was on Rigsby served by Carpenter.
Now look at the video. Rigsby never had possession*. Then she trips (put IIHF Rule 185 into the mix here). And then the next player with control of the puck ... scores. There was no change of possession for a whistle. Good goal.
I say the Fins were robbed.
*If she had possession, the trip never happened because it would've been after the whistle of goalie with possession.
It's actually easy to explain and while I disagree with the call, the process was handled correctly.
On ice official sees Rigsby come out of crease and trip Finn forward, arm goes up, goal is scored, ref signals good goal.
Then, the goal goes to review, where a person upstairs makes the call with input by the ref. Upstairs says Rigsby was still in the crease, was interfered with in trying to cover the puck, and was taken out of the play illegally.
At that point, it's a no goal. However, the penalty call cannot be reviewed, so we end up with the situation that occurred.
While not to this scale, I had a similar situation happen with AF hockey. Guy comes in offside but it wasn't called, puck stays in the zone and offensive team draws a penalty. They score on the delayed penalty but the refs overturn the goal due to being offside. Penalty still stands, clock stays the same, no goal.

As far as interim president, a few years ago the board appointed the BSC president to serve as interim chancellor for a while before hiring Hagerott. It'd be interesting to see them do something similar, appointing Minot's Shirley as interim UND president while doing the search for the full time president. Would give him a little test run before making their choice to go with him or look elsewhere.
Raise your hand if you would give up your current job for 6 months at a new one with no guarantee you'll be hired and you're unlikely to go back to your previous one.

Could be wrong on this, but I believe you can ask to be discharged without further duty as a freshman and maybe sophomore, IF they accept.
Any cadet can leave prior to the start of their junior year for any reason without having to repay the equivalent of their tuition. The Academy does not have to approve it.

So irritating that college Presidents have devolved into lying pieces of crap. St Thomas should be DI as is Loyola Chicago, Drake, Bradley, Creighton etc, but their President and MIAC ones concoct a scheme to cover their ambitions to move up for them. St Johns actually won the MIAC last year by huge scores and beat St Thomas by 40-20, but they both beat nearly every MIAC school except Bethel and Gustavous badly.
If you can’t trust supposedly Christian college Presidents not to lie, why should we expect real news from the press?
St John’s scores from last year: https://gojohnnies.com/schedule.aspx?schedule=274
St Thomas scores from last year: https://www.tommiesports.com/sports/fball/2018-19/schedule
Lying will pay dividends as alumni will donate more out of rage and anger.
So the presidents of the other MIAC schools decided they were ok with the bad press that makes them look petty in order to help St. Thomas raise money to move up?
Any source for this information? As someone who thinks like a president, how did you not see this coming?
