Goon

Here is the hit that should have been a 5 minute major and a game misconduct, these are the types of hits that hockey is trying to illeminate this is what the NHL is cracking down on, not Don Adam though. I have a picture of the still frame on my blog but I can't figure out how to up load it. My good buddy GFG is defending this hit.

Ha! They play the Tigers this week and I wouldn't be surprised if the Gophers split with the Tigers this weekend.

Yeah good luck with that... He probably won't answer that.

That’s right, people are calling for a review of this incident, but there isn't precedence for it. There is no transparency, in this league what-so-ever. It's blatant cronyism, we have a whole family of Shepherds starting with Greg and their buddies ruining a once great hockey league, because none of these buffoons can ref a game per the rule book, Sprig posted on my blog that he counted 5 CFB that went uncalled, I counted a few myself that went uncalled and that's unacceptable. Someone will say, Goon, you're just bagging on the officials because you don't like them... Yep, but I ask you seriously, name one official that is any good in this league??? Lets Review the names... Todd Anderson, not even close, Don Adam, not!!! Marco and D-Shep are the best of the worst. If I have to watch Brad Shepherd screw up another game after the NCHC starts league play I am going to be disappointed. The problem with this league is the refs and the leadership at the top, they are corrupt. These buffoons can get their officials to even call the game correctly and they look befuddled when there is a near brawl at the end of the game. Both Hand Shake games where a Gophers was pulled out of the handshake line was officiated by Don Adam. Coincidence? Both players at the end of the scrum should have been sent to the dressing rooms. The only thing that is consistent about the way the games are called is they are called poorly both ways. Enough is enough...

Like you just did, you're going to blow up twitter again...

Are you 100% sure about that. I think appology can be interpreted both ways...

That's a good point, Kristo also apologized for his antics on Friday night, that was a dangerous hit... I have yet to see Mark Alt's apology for trying to plant Parks into the boards who is now hurt.

I think UND would probably welcome Mike Lee, he has never won a game against UND and has trouble finishing game that he plays against UND in.

This is why I am happy we are breaking away from the WCHA. The teams are supposed to go to the locker room not pile on to the ice after each period. I am not sure why the WCHA leadership likes to look the other way all of the time. The rules are there for a reason.

I thought that I read that Blood played 35 minutes last night so he might be a bit run down.

You can alway chose not to watch the games and sell your tickets to someone that wants to see the games.

The Rules don't apply to the Gophers and it was a big mistake to let those two teams shake hands after the game, the officials are culpable for that one as well, this game was a potential Power Keg and Don “I make Sh*t up as I go” Adam, true to form let the game get out of hand again. His buddy Todd Anderson is just as bad… McLeod could spend all Monday and Tuesday reviewing the game film but in the end it’s probably better to let sleeping dogs lie. They keep looking and they will end up with one of their players suspended as well.

Blood will play next weekend. [Box Score]

I have been told that for FSSN/UND Sports Channel or what ever it's called needs a 2 million dollar HD truck before we can have the game in HD. So if one of our rich alums wants to step up and make a donation by all means lets get it going. I was also told that they would need new cameras as well.

I wish I could take the survey as well.

I am not mistaken isn't that Kelly Inn the one with the Green Mill in the Hotel as well? In St Cloud...

The more I think about this; this is a great idea, potential recruiting tool to either convince the CIS to jump up to NCAA hockey or to entice highly touted kids that don't want to play MJ hockey...

I just thought it was a web page, I was shocked when I found out that it was a Canadian channel. I am hoping DirecTV will pick it up.

It's a sports channel in Canada.

I wish we would see the day where that happens.

Actually, I have never thought of it that way but they are getting involved in states right's business. They Sout Carolina what they can have on their state house. They have also told state schools what they can call their sports teams.

I am sure we can get that question answered this week.

I am going to agree with OxBow here, SCSU has bled a few players this season, you have to wonder what's going on there? You never know, he could show up here and develop chemistry with some of the players on the team and we end up with a two year forward that adds a dynamic we didn't have before. It's too bad he can't play now.

I imagine we will find out on Wednesday...
