  • WCHA Playoff Thread

    Come on! We have to have a playoff thread, don't we?

    Anyway, some interesting numbers concerning who's "coming in hot."

    Second Half of the Season records
    Kato 11-2-1
    LSSU 9-4-1
    NMU 8-4-2
    UAF 8-5-1
    BGSU 7-5-2
    BSU 6-5-3
    Tech 4-8-2
    UAH 4-8-2
    Ferris 4-8-2
    UAA 1-11-2

    I know, I know. Some teams played twice in the second half, some not at all, but take it for what it is. And a special word of caution to Northern. That's not your normal #7 seed coming to town.

      I’m certain the coaching staff and players are well aware of the team they are facing. They also recall going to game 3 after blowing out #7 Huntsville last year.

          The WCHA needs to fire Greg Shepherd, what a disgrace. All season, the reffing on both sides of each WCHA game is atrocious.

          The Div 1 players deserve so much better....

            And the least they can do, if they’re going to be terrible, is to be quick. I’m so tired of the endless huddles.

                NMU closes out the Home sweep of Night 1....

                All 4 games were competitive. It's cliche but someone will have an upset tomorrow. So who's going to drop the ball tomorrow?

                  Considering that fans gripe about PeeWee refs, high school refs, refs in Juniors, college refs, minor league refs and NHL refs too, where will we find a system that makes fans happy? Or even on that makes them complain less?

                    Does he even ever attend any of the WCHA games outside of Mankato?

                      I’ve talked to him here several times over the past couple years. Also at Ferris, Tech and a couple others.

                        Not to mention that at the NCAA level, EVERY game is filmed and a copy is provided for analysis... So yea, Greg knows exactly what is going on with officials in this league. And contrary to popular opinion, the officiating is fine...

                            After watching that travesty at BG tonight I have to agree it wasn’t well reffed. IMHO the refs in that game determined the outcome

                              The WCHA used to make refs view the Friday night game before officiating the Saturday night game. And then they had to view the Saturday game as well. Does the league still require this?

                              From ADN:

                              "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

                              UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.
