I wonder if Zmolek’s absence as a leader was felt tonight?   They seemed off stride for the first 40+ minutes.

And yesterday?

[SiouxFanatic]

So I missed it, did Liver get banged up from a hit and not come back after? Seeing some people mention that on X.

What call is he crying about now

Maybe your #1 power play should score on the 3 straight power plays in the first.

Maybe he should be questioning why Sandelin didn't challenge the non call. Obviously the UMD coaches didn't think it was severe enough to challenge and risk a 2 minute penalty against if it didn't go their way. It was definitely more embellishment on the UMD player. He was pushed up against the boards, picked up his skates and flopped down.

He was back on the ice after that, I went back and checked.
He was on the ice for the first James goal with 5min left in game.

I didn't see him after that, but it looked like they were putting Laurila, Strath, and Jubs out there more (I'm assuming for playing time).
Then he was skating fine after the game for the celebration and the handshake line.

So hopefully all ok...

Sandelin said in the Duluth Tribune that he didn’t challenge because the ref came over and said it was a dive by the UMD player.

Yep.
I imagine that Ciskie wasn't upset about the pile of UMD PP chances earlier in the game.  Or the missed calls on UMD (the Cleveland cross-checks to the face of Croal comes to mind...could/should have been another 5min PP).  Or the overturned Jubs goal, despite the replay that we were shown not being conclusive that the puck crossed the line).
Schloss will say that he doesn't agree with a call.  But he doesn't whine or bitch about it, ever.

They do that for youth hockey now which is even more ridiculous especially while trying to develop young athletes/hockey players 3v3 full ice for dumb

Super dumb to do 3v3 in youth hockey.

There's this saying about Darwinism. This was by far one of the dumbest tweets of the night. So, Reschny dived into the boards. You can't make this stuff up.

I’m not sure if they call a 5 on the hit on Strathmann if the puck wasn’t already gone for a while when the hit was made.  That, combined with the hit knocking him towards the boards head first probably pushed it to a five.  I don’t know how you complain vociferously about that, as it met the definition, even if you felt it could go either way, which they obviously did.  
It cracks me up that when Dane complained about Rickwood being taken down that would have given us a 5-3 power play like Duluth had, Medak said he whined and it wasn’t a penalty, then changed his view that it was a trip when Dane challenged it for a major.  Think he was worried about a replay showing what a complete homer he is.

Safe to say this squad/program is used to playing without him.

During pregame interview Jax made it sound like a rest day saying we’re managing his past injuries

The refs didn't call a major penalty because they said the UMD player dived.

Sandy is right, call the dive. It's not hard to do that and the NCHC supervisor of officials should review each game and make a list of players that dive. Give this list to on ice officials so they know who dives a lot so they can be on the lookout for it. If diving is called as the only penalty instead of taking both it would stop, or better yet make diving an auto double minor.

The on ice officials know who dives, but having a “list” I easier than seeing it live on ice level. 
 

y’all don’t really understand officiating ice hockey other than what y’all want for your favorite team.

I've watched NCHC officials be hot garbage in multiple games that UND isn't in. 

In the WMU/Miami game if the refs were doing their job Miami shouldn't have to challenge two goals. A goalie interference that somehow is never a penalty and a slew foot that both led to a goal. Both refs looking at the plays made no call, so Miami had to challenge both goals. 

Last weekend they can't review a pick on the GWG on the Duluth player, because of some rule. 

These on ice officials are just being lazy not calling diving because it happens in every game by every team, yet nothing gets called 99.9% of the time it happens.

I mean, there really is a difference. Ciskie was being an unreasonable baby as per usual, but the standards for radio guys and writers are very different. You won’t see Matt Wellens whining on social media like Ciskie. Although very few media folk whine as much as Ciskie lol

If the ref said it was a dive then why didn’t he call a diving penalty?
Start calling all the dives and make the diving team have to kill a penalty, that’s the only way you will have any chance of eliminating it. Right now there is every incentive for coaches to encourage players to embellish as it almost never gets called as a standalone penalty. You either get a power play or matching minors. With the decrease in scoring over the years, power plays have a greater impact on the outcome of games, hence a greater incentive to try and “draw” penalties.

While you’re at please start calling interference and pick plays. See too many of these go uncalled.
