Gesturing is 5 and a game misconduct. Except it's not a spear. If anything at all, it's a slash, and a one-handed slash at that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a trip for sure but probably wouldn't be given as a penalty shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do they rule that the faceoff stays in the zone because Albrecht didn't skate into the net on purpose, but also decide that the diving stick swinging player didn't trip him? Can't have it both ways unless you are officiating by the scoreboard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about high sticking; Intent doesn't matter. if you hit someone high its two minutes. You can't just run around the rink swinging your stick all willy-nilly not giving a !@#$. If you accidently slash someone, it's a slash. And there was no "hockey play" reason for him to swing his stick out like he did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Announcers were pretty quiet about why Sandy wouldn't put Biondi out in last couple minutes. Quite a classless move by Sandy. Kid should have got ran by Kleven. Duluth has no class. Did Sandy (a) hide him to protect him from a visit from The Bogeyman, (b) put him away so he could tell the league he’s been punished already, or (c) bench him for being an idiot and risking penalty. No matter what, you are responsible for your stick at all times. That was a slash. Biondi may not have whiffed, but the officials did. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem I have is that irony, satire, sarcasm, all have a literal believability aspect that makes them work. Openly declaring those kinds of comments robs them of that, IMO. But we live in a hot/cold world, unfortunately, where nuance has been devalued. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the announcers were very puzzled why UMD’s leading goal scorer was not on the ice at the end when the goalie was pulled for an extra attacker.

Not sure why you keep your best forward on the bench at the end when he's been out every other shift even after the cup check moment. Was Sandy was protecting him possibly? At the same time UND doesn't have enough healthy bodies to be taking runs at anyone at the moment with league discipline guy happy to hand out additional games.

Godsmack Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Maybe a petty gripe but the league inexplicably omitted Jamernick’s goal in the highlights from last night.

I thought they did a great job for most of the weekend. Its sad because I thought Friday was extremely well officiated yet you've got Sandy and Bruce Ciskie complaining to bulldog nation afterwards that the PP discrepancy was 4-1 and we scored two PP goals (off clear penalties) 4x3. So the dogs dominated most of the 5x5 and our goalie battled like crazy to get us a win, yet they were better 5x5 so who is the scapegoat? Not your team that played a $hit second period, the reffs. This from the team represented most in the NCAA watch for divers video.... Sig always had great lines about the reffs and heavy pockets with marbles....I miss that guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them play games while we win games. Very petty of the NCHC. We’re gonna win the PennRose anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
