I've never seen anyone else included that was not there that Fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK! I know that Connor Ford was one of the top Faceoff guys in the country, so, he has the skill set. Also, Calder has another year. With that said, I was impressed with what these two players brought to the table this past season. As far as @Wilbur and @MafiaMan go, I will have to let them answer this question. Your question made me laugh. Both said players in question were at the Hoggsbreath this past weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valid point but does winning one NCAA tournament game in the last five years qualify as a "Fortune 500 company"? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we weren't Rizzo's number 1 choice? I remember when we were recruiting Jason Gregoire and we told him we wanted to bring him to UND in 08-09 and Denver said they would bring him to campus in 07-08 so he committed to Denver even though UND was where he preferred to go. Then Denver told him they wanted him to play an extra year of Juniors and arrive on campus in 08-09. Since now since the circumstances were the same Gregoire flipped back to UND. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time Rizzo would have committed we would have been. He was on the Jost path (had a year in the BCHL under his belt), year # 2 (draft year) ahead of him. He was a year out when he committed. He was a monster recruit, there's no way a school wouldn't have offered him. I remember Wisconsin, but I think Denver was also one of his Final 3.

There was no replay that could conclusively say that the left wing was offside. The side views were blocked by fans. The only view you had was from the far end zone which will always be distorted due to the parallax view. There is no way to precisely determine the correct relationship between the players skate and the blue line from that far away. Not only is the foot above the blue line due to the skate blade but the blue line is not painted directly on top of the ice. If the evidence to overturn if not conclusive then you have to go with the call on the ice. Absolutely pathetic job by the linesman.

We’ll never know what angles the refs had, but the broadcast eventually showed a zoomed in view from the opposite goal/end that showed (to me at least, and I’m as biased as they come) that it was offsides. It was still a no-win call, but I would have had to rule it offsides conclusively if I saw that angle and had to make the call…despite the heartbreak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
