Fedorov Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 I suggested forfeiting earlier in protest of the reffing. Nothing is going to change in this league until some coach/school/team makes a dramatic statement. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wonder if UND could request non-WCHA refs for all exhibition and non-conference games.

Smoggy Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Probably since I believe UND pays the officials. But then the refs would hate us even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greyeagle Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Hey guys, inspired effort from your squad this afternoon. Well earned victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supertrex Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Watching the Michigan - OSU game. Pretty fast, end-to-end action. Lots of penalties are being called, but they seem to be called evenly... Also, NH and BC are tied 1-1... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestateofhockey Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Interesting game to say the least. Its always a power struggle between these teams in the WCHA but it looks like the UND Sioux wanted it more. Nice goal by Stafford also!

sagard Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Great effort by the Sioux this weekend. I hope the doctors can get Bina going again. Good luck in the post season unless we cross paths again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCM Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 (edited) Guess which team averaged the most goals per game in the tournament? Congratulations to Rastislav Spirko and Nick Fuher on making the WCHA Final Five all-tournament team. Edited March 20, 2005 by PCM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Congratulations to Rastislav Spirko and Nick Fuher on making the WCHA Final Five all-tournament team? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So did they make it or are you asking if they made it? Can you give the list of the full tournament team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthDakotaHockey Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Gauthier. Fulgham. Sterling. Spirko. Fuhrer. McElhinney. That's it, as best I recall. I was a bit busy giving Gwod a short lesson in civility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall it now. Laatch. The Pioneers had about eight what I assume were players in street clothes on the ice. Are there any restrictions on the number of roster players a team can have? The Sioux are down to bare bones. Thank God those bones are some of the best in the Country. Let the Selections begin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MafiaMan Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 I find it interesting all the comments on here about the officiating, yet no one mentioned the obvious spear dished out by Harrington on Stafford with 26 seconds left in the game. Stafford took a shot from the slot that deflected off of Harrington's stick, hitting him just under the mask, and Harrington immediately jabbed his stick into Stafford's gut. All while Anderson was standing about 4 feet from the two of them. Honest to goodness, it was 4-2, the game had been decided, call the da** penalty.

I heard that crowd reaction and saw Stafford down on the ice, but I wasn't sure what happened. Curiously, Frank and Doug didn't mention it.

WPoS Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 you guys won, fair and square. For the record, you guys had too many men on the ice a bunch of times, because Harrington counts as a player for our opponents! WPoS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthDakotaHockey Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Next week's regional is played at Mariucci Arena <{POST_SNAPBACK}> More appropriately named The John. Ralph Engelstad . . . .

sprig Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 you guys won, fair and square. For the record, you guys had too many men on the ice a bunch of times, because Harrington counts as a player for our opponents! WPoS <{POST_SNAPBACK}> After the Spirko goal, however, Harrington was playing "lighter" due to the undressing. Kinda like parts falling off a car and improving gas mileage. And a shining example that very few offensive dmen are in the Leopold/Martin class. Thought Frank and Doug were more "even-handed" than they have ever been when the Sioux are playing. Credit for the defensive side of dmen's game; I fell out of my lazy boy. Would like FSN to show replays of Gopher penalties and potential penalties like they do the opponent penalties and potential penalties. Can't say I've ever understood that, although I guess it's keeping with the Gophers "clean" image as opposed to the Sioux's "thug" image that they prefer to potray.

PCM Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 For the first period and a half, I thought the players were just going through the motions. Their heads didn't seem to be in the game, and understandably so. Then came Spirko's shorthanded goal and it was as if the fuse was lit. (Note: Woog pronounces Sparky's first name as "RAT-i-slav." I can't complain too much about that because Greg Lotysz says it the same way. It's RAST-i-slav guys.) After the Spirko goal, it was as if the entire team suddenly woke up and thought, "Hey, we can win this. We must win it for Robbie!" From there on, it was a new game.

7>4 Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 What did Hirsh do after this game? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It will be interesting to see what happens with Hirsh in the playoffs and beyond. His leaving his stick at center ice COULD be symbolic that his days playing in the brown and yellow are over, although I doubt it. Similar to when a wrestler leaves his shoes on the matt after his last match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: One thing Woog did do was heap a ton of credit on Jordan Parise, the Sioux D, and Travis Zajac. He also was complimentary of Spirko once he gave up on trying to say his name correctly.
