Fetch Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 The Old man gets another - They learned more by losing tonight than if they had won Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 You remember.... the loss to the Goofs on the shorty with....what...a half second left. The emotions were much different to me. That was crushing. This just pissed me off. Quote
sioux rube Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Just curious.......in 30+ years how many times have you seen a 5x3 in OT?I'm old. My memory isn't so good. Could of happened some time. I realize it very rarely happens but it did. It sucks but it's over and done. Get the split tomorrow night. Quote
Sodbuster Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 The emotions were much different to me. That was crushing. This just pissed me off.Yeah, I have to agree. Quote
SiouxScore Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 It's because he's not a forward. He has to go back. Agreed if Olson is ready to go if he isn't then Poolman is still our best option up front. I thought the place where he struggled the most was on the powerplay especially early with the way Omaha pressured high. Quote
Snake Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I know your opinion on this, but given the two handers Omaha doled out all game long, and Massa's slash to a player standing in the exact spot MacMillan's penalty was called, I can easily see how MacMillan could consider contact in the crease fair game. And that's not even considering the context, already shorthanded in overtime. Sure, I get it, but the player has to be the one in control and not give an official the opportunity to make a bad call. Ortega was not even a threat to get the puck on that play. The puck was reversed softly to a vacant corner. Go get the damn puck Mac! Quote
scpa0305 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 You remember.... the loss to the Goofs on the shorty with....what...a half second left. Haha yeah I remeber that game. It hurt 1000 times worse than tonight's game. That the point I was trying to get across. Quote
scpa0305 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Just curious.......in 30+ years how many times have you seen a 5x3 in OT? I have 20 years....never Quote
stoneySIOUX Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Haha yeah I remeber that game. It hurt 1000 times worse than tonight's game. That the point I was trying to get across. Again, hurt is much different than anger. Quote
808287 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I also blame gfhockey for going out and saying he will not start a game day thread because of his love affair for Dean Blais. Fire Brad Berry for his piss poor power play he's in charge of. While the PP did come through and score, it would be nice to see us put one in on a five minute major for a change. When is the last time we pumped two in on a fiver? Anyone? Buehler? Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 The emotions were much different to me. That was crushing. This just pissed me off. This, very much this! Totally different emotions. This one pissed me off too. I was quiet when the Gophers won last year. I may have let out a loud expletive when Ortega scored in this one.... Quote
yzerman19 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I have 20 years....never I was always coached that its law of the jungle when you're down a man late or in OT. Tackle an opponent if there's a loose puck in your crease. Use your stick "creatively" if a guy cant use his hands, he can't score...and they never call a second penalty in OT...oh wait... Quote
jk Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 The other thing they could have done was killed the 5-on-3, which, actually, they did. (Officially, it came one second after the first penalty expired.) In fact, they held Omaha to no really good chances until the very end. Quote
SiouxScore Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 But not tonight though - who do you think will win a championship first - Hak or Blais? Blais better just worry about trying to get Omaha a NCAA Tournament win first. Quote

Brainerd Sioux Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Whatever bud. Have coached the game for 30 years. Why take a chance on letting the refs make a call?at what level?? The whole game gave the refs an opportunity to call penalties it was a physical great game, that was a brutal finish that the refs decided the outcome!!! Quote
yzerman19 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Anyone catch the "underdog" play the CBS announcer made when interviewing Ortega...ummm...it was two top 5 teams going head to head, and if I'm not mistaken UNO entered the game in first place in the NCHC... Quote
MoreSiouxForYou Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I have 20 years....never Macmillans rep for diving is catching him and it only started to be wild recently. His embellishment last weekend should have been a wakeup and instead cost us a skater at a key time after getting away with 2 in the game. Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Four letters? Me too. Hahaha, yep. Quote

The second one was never coming. I want to say I have seen this before in a regular season NHL game but it was total bloodshed. In a 25 game regular season, I can't believe this was called. Benefits of having deano I guess. Guy flipped a lid and the refs gave it back to him. Quote
jk Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Maine had a 6-on-3 against Denver late in the national title game, which ended with Denver skating away with Zach's and Bucks' trophy. (If I remember right.) Quote
808287 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Just curious.......in 30+ years how many times have you seen a 5x3 in OT? Once in my 35 years of watching college hockey. Once. Quote

Use your stick "creatively" if a guy cant use his hands, he can't score...and they never call a second penalty in OT...oh wait... But there was no scramble on this particular play, and the puck was nowhere near the crease. The puck was slowly rolling to a vacant corner, and if Mac hustles over there instead of hitting Ortega he gets the puck and clears the zone. Gotta be smarter than that. 3 Quote

Holden was awful all night and it even caught Starman off guard a couple times. Quote
