Boy, all the whining about officiating is really something! I’m old enough to remember fans being thrilled to leave bad WCHA officiating in the dust when the NCHC was formed! What happened?
My recollection is that when the shoe was on the other foot about character issues, we wanted the past left in the past and felt Matt Frattin deserved the Hobey Baker Trophy.
That’s not quite how it works...
Losses to #30 (Colorado College), #34 (Bemidji State), #44 (Omaha) and #52 (Canisius College TWICE) pretty much ruin everything positive about beating the #1 team at home once.
To be fair to Berry, it’s sometimes hard to string together an explanation on anything while dealing with the distraction of Hennessy humping his leg like a two year old Golden Retriever.
The fact that fans even try to justify losing not once but TWICE to Canisius College really speaks volumes about how far the program has sunk in just three seasons. It’s Titanic-esque.
