Smoggy Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Big victory!!! Need to get more consistent. Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 What I like is that everytime CASiouxFan starts a thread complaining about JPL, he comes back and has a great weekend!!! Only 2 goals allowed on the weekend, great job Jean-Phillipe! Quote
The Whistler Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 apparently bruce mccleod was there last night and wasn't happy with the officiating, he needs to take the bull by the horns and do something about it. the wcha "refs" need to start calling the game the way it is supposed to, or we need to bring in a new commish who will do something about it. case and point, guys like stastny, parise, zajac, toews and other offensive forces who were stifled by the wcha non-reffing are now fluorishing in the nhl, where the refs are now calling the game the way it should be. on the flip side, wcha defensemen are having trouble adjusting. guys like smaby, carsle, jones, hale and other big mean defensive forces who were used to manhandling guys are having trouble even staying up with the big club. the wcha, which is the best college hockey in the nation, is going to start losing the top end talent, whether it be more early defections or guys deciding to go other routes all together. i LOVE college hockey, but the wcha officiating is bringing down the product we see on the ice. sorry about the long rant, but i feel very strongly about this, and if things continue this way, i think wcha hockey as a whole will suffer greatly. lets finish this game sioux!!! I believe the problem is that McCloud and especially Sheppard don't want the game called right. I think they want the refs to call it this one sometimes and another way at other times. "Do it so much and no more." How else do you explain how every officials calls it equally bad? Quote
andrea6977 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Too bad these weekend series aren't total goal series. yeah i wish that sometimes too lol Quote
redwing77 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 What do you bet it's Lil' Shep in GF next weekend. Could he be any worse than Mason was this weekend or Adam was every time we've seen him? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Great bounce back win and something to build on for next weekend! Quote
mygarske Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Too bad these weekend series aren't total goal series. Now those were the day!! Quote
The Whistler Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Too bad these weekend series aren't total goal series. They aren't? Why wasn't I told? Quote
Sioux-cia Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 OK! We sweep the Goofs next week end and it will be a Merry Christmas! Quote
Oxbow6 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Could he be any worse than Mason was this weekend or Adam was every time we've seen him? Mason was BRUTAL! Quote
Siouxper Kev Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Too bad these weekend series aren't total goal series. Gawd I used to hate those back in the day Quote
GoTAILS Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Every WCHA series this year has been L-W on the road and W-L at home. Splitsville? Quote
Siouxdonyms Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Could he be any worse than Mason was this weekend or Adam was every time we've seen him? Or Marco Hunt Quote
Taz Boy Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Good job, Sioux. Have a solid week of practice and then get 4 more sweet points before break. taz Quote
dagies Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 A 1-0 loss means you had a chance to win, but a split on the road is not to bad against the #3 team in the country. Good job, Sioux. Quote

I completely agree. If the reffing doesn't start changing, and soon, guys won't play in this league because they can go another route to get to the nhl, and do better without having to play against the refs as well as the other team.

The Whistler Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Gawd I used to hate those back in the day I liked 'em when we won them. Led to some bizarre situation, like having the opponents team pull their goalie while they had a lead in the game. Quote
redwing77 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 How else do you explain how every officials calls it equally bad? Poor leadership is absolutely correct. But then again, nothing will be done because McLeod does a good job of placating or diverting the coaches' attentions and Shepherd has done a good job with buddying up to McLeod. To be honest, the McLeod-Shepherd relationship is a lot like the Ford Family and Matt Millen. Or Gene Taylor and Kevin McHale. Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Could he be any worse than Mason was this weekend or Adam was every time we've seen him? Agreed! They are all garbage! Hak stated that he was unsure if he was in favor of the 4 official system. His main reason was that the WCHA has a hard enough time recruiting quality referees for a three official system. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 What a gritty performance by Oshie! Having a leader step up like that makes everyone else very accountable for this evening's game. Quote
nodak hockey fanatic Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 I believe the problem is that McCloud and especially Sheppard don't want the game called right. I think they want the refs to call it this one sometimes and another way at other times. "Do it so much and no more." How else do you explain how every officials calls it equally bad? you could be right, and if that is the case, then we need a changing of the guard. i have heard this mentioned before, claiming that it is supposed to keep some of the lower teams competitive with the stronger, faster, better teams, but that reasoning is a bunch of bs. if a team is better than you, then you better figure out a better way to beat them. and i don't blame the teams that continue to do this clutch and grab, because they continue to get away with it. it just is frustrating to watch. we could have such a better product on the ice if it was called correctly.
