Fedorov Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 I can see that. I guess I just heard the early year penalty troubles as more to do with the obstruction crackdown than just above and beyond poor reffing. I can't believe I was fooled. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, it is just my opinion. Others may believe differently, even though they would be wrong.

UMDDogz Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 I wonder if we get the "best" ref because it is the most competitive series, or do we get the "fifth" best ref because we are the fifth seed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If we get the fifth best...then we will get Campion... That's probably what Sioux fans are hoping for anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redwing77 Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Although I feel the level of officiating in the WCHA is poor, I believe Champion is one of the beter ones in the league. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think Campion and Zelkin are the two refs that will call a good game. However, this is Daddy's WCHA. I don't think this is going to be the case for us. Ok, I'm going to guess who is going to ref which series and see how many I get right: CC series: Zelkin DU series: Campion UW series: Mason UMN series: Hunt UND series: Shepherd That's my guess. Don't think I'll be close, but maybe I can get one right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wreckincrew Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 About the only good thing to say about Shepherd is that he always tries to spread his incompetence around by making a bad call, then following it up by missing a good call, equally to both teams. That way nobody knows what to expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkHockeyGuy Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 It'd be nice to see Schwabe get his bell rung a few times, but someone has to catch him first. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wow, spoken like a true redneck hockey fan. "I hope he gets his bell rung." Like I said, way to be a classy hockey fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkHockeyGuy Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I hope we get Mason, this way when the bulldogs win, you can all cryout "he is an ex-bulldog" blah blah blah blah blah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me that "Johnny Punchclock" Zelkin. He's got the smallest helmet size of any ref in tWCHA, if you know what I mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the #1 team in the nation loses to and ties Vermont, something is wrong with said ranking. Should they have chanted that....no, but you can understand the frustration (and inebriaton) that led to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux7 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I guess I'll start the prognostication... Friday night we usually have our better game, so if I'm going to pick a 3 game series we'll probably have to go with UND first UND Friday 3-1 UMD Saturday 4-2 UND Sunday 5-4 OT This is the time when teams show the different directions they're going to go. Good teams will step up and do what it takes to move to the next level. The Sioux have been back and forth, and I'm hoping this will be their statement series. It will be a nailbiting series no doubt. Much like the Denver series in 2002, which was also won in OT game 3...on an Andy Schneider slapper from the point. Hopefully history repeats itself, but I'd take Fri/Sat wins to rest for Thursday. Think I can get FSNN in NY? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nobody in the media is giving the Sioux a chance. I hope they prove them wrong. GO SIOUX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sioux_Hab-it Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 What media is that, sioux7? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sioux 7 is right just look at the various site predictions USCHO, INCH. In fact your question should be has anyone found a writer outside of GF who has picked the Sioux to win. If this isn't enough motivation for the team what is?

beersong Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 There aren't many fans except those on this board that think the Sioux will win the series either. I don't get why people are so confident the Dogs can pull this out. I think the chance that tUMD wins this series is less than 50/50. Hope the Dogs can get a win tonight in my absence and then finish the deal with me in attendence Sat or Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two refs I thought were not good enough to be given playoff jobs made it (Anderson and Adam) which displaced every prediction I made. The only two I got right? UND and UW series refs.
