    I really hate to see Kevin Shea show up to referee any NU game. He's actually not bad overall but has a really bad habit of presuming any hard hit that makes a lot of noise or sends an opponent flying is a penalty. He made the exact same call on Steve Quailer vs BU at Matthews last year and it turned the game around. I'm not looking to run the guy off but really, Dan Schachte needs to call him in for some video reviews.

      Is anyone a member or ex-member over at die hard dogs, if so is it worth it? 30 bucks seems a bit steep for a message board and some inside news.

          Thoughts on the game:

          1) Standard reffing for a Beanpot/BU game. While BU was able to haul people down, interfere, etc. NU was playing under women hockey rules. All three penalties in the late 2nd were not even close to being penalties.

          2) Manson's hit was a trademark hit. It is the definition of a hip check. It should be used as a tool to coach it to future generations. The fact that it was called for boarding is insulting to all hockey fans.

          3) That was the longest 20 minutes of hockey I have ever seen. The 3rd period was painful at times to watch. Everything that has ever been said about how USA felt in 1980, I now understand. It felt as though that every whistle, the clock had moved 3-4 seconds. While I'm extremely happy Rawlings made some key saves, we were lucky. We were trying to give that away. We completely collapsed and played a game that was just trying to hold on. BU just couldn't get that shot.

          Who's to blame for this? Coaching. It's Madigan's job to continue to coach the team to play their game. We stopped that after the 2nd and he went into that locker room and told the team to hold on and survive 20 minutes.

          4) Because of that coaching, Madigan is now 60 minutes away from a lifetime contract at NU.

          5) Did anyone else think that during the review of the 3rd goal, there were people frantically flipping through the rulebook looking for anything they could use to disallow that goal?

          6) The true Rawlings we know and love finally made an appearance on that last goal. Boy did he look like a new born deer trying to walk.

            They were gassed in the 3rd period, they pretty much played 2 forward lines and 4 d all night. The last 8 minutes they just held on. No depth. Are element and darou out for the season?

                    ouch!

                    Anyway, besides checking for high sticking.. & BU had already played the puck thereafter.. what else were they looking for or at? It was a simple, hustle play (talk about hand eye coordination).. and a clear goal. What were they checking that long?

                    Some of the bias (including review, officiating etc) is ridiculous in some of these games..

                        ..no kidding

                        even the 2nd goal (the gift).. Roy was skating top of the crease at high speed & managed to get his stick out & tip that puck.. so as fluky as the 3rd goal might have been (i think it was a hustle play).. both the 2nd & 3rd g, he had some amazing eye hand coordination going. Smart player.

                          Congrats guys! Any win against BU is a good win and in the Beanpot it's all that much sweeter. I hope you kick BCs arse.

                            The slashing penalty off the first powerplay faceoff was a good call. NU player was out of position and slashed the living daylights out of the BU player, who was probably otherwise going to walk in on Rawlings with the puck. Had to be called.

                            The call on Manson was putrid.

                            Congrats on the W by the way.

                              Just hope our last 'L' to you guys (score wise anyway).. was the fluke.. not our 'W' earlier this season.

                              Just make a gm of it team.. let the chips fall where they may!
