According to Mike Schmidt it was a “clear” thigh on thigh. 

Mike Schmidt is an idiot. Was garbage back in the day and still garbage. Still wondering how UND let him be hired. Big black eye on the officials for missing that call.

In my opinion this game illustrates the best and worst about Sioux Hockey this year.  First, the best - we played a whole game with passion, intensity and grit - didn't go into a shell in the 2nd or after we got a lead.  We forechecked hard (that's a big reason we won a championship) We were hard to play against.  We played smart (for the most part) The defense was great and the offense got it done - not the prettiest but got some goals.  Honestly, this is how I thought this season would play out - maybe not the top talent could beat anyone at any time.  A decent record and perhaps a tournament run - practically home ice in the regional.  The worst - why is this game an outlier this season - especially after the break.  Why can't coaches and captains get this kind of toughness game in and game out?  Do we have to get a player a weekend kneed in order to play with intensity?  We've seen what we can do - now, let's start doing it on a regular basis.  This is on the coaches to get us ready for every game.

Maybe, but I thought you couldn't stick your leg out to check the opponent.  But I'm not an expert on the rules of hockey, so....

That’s why slot of us get quite frustrated because at times they show us what they can do, then they play Canisius.

So nice to see our raggamuffin team to hang in there against a top ranked team for a change....... wait, we’re supposed to be the top ranked team and St Cloud fans are supposed to feel that way after they only lose by 1 to us.

Hypothetically, I would think the NCHC cares more about making sure UND gets home ice than promoting a Hobey candidate. 

If that was the case, would Todd Anderson be officiating this series?

I remember the days of chanting bull Schmidt at him.

UND...St.Cloud...Hillary...

"excuses, excuses, excuses"... Excuse me!!!

St. Cloud won Friday because of refs...UND won  Saturday because of flu...Trump won because of Russians...

Get a grip....some times a loss is because the opponent is better!!!!! 

Those *@%&! Russians!

Well I guess you can stick your leg out wide and as long as you contact the oppsing players knee with your thigh then you are ok. I’m sure it will be opposite if a UND player did it. We will see Schmidt eat his words one day just like it has happended before.w

I think its equally likely that NCHC officials bend over backwards to make sure they can't be seen as favoring UND.
