Don't get me wrong, I wasn't defending the team or coach. That was all piss poor. Just wondering why the conference tournament has to be played under conditions that terrible. Just a bad product.
Boards were terrible, bounces off the boards were terrible, ice was terrible. All of that does not lend to play dump, chase, cycle. That leads to dump, chase, lose the zone.
No way Thorimbert stands on his head two nights in a row. UND wind tonight and the Target Center rejoices for having a team that will actually bring fans.
Is this a telling attempt? Kinda looks like it, so if one rule is to be enforced I'd think a second would be.
Let's just keep to talking about the game.
It was obvious und was missing players and the refs weren't calling anything against Minnesota, it was easy to see. UMN is a good enough team that the refs don't have to call things their way but it seems the refs call it one way. Plenty of blatant calls missed with Spivey and Lick looking right at it.
