UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

Absolutely terrible first period. How they managed to be only down 2-0 is a minor miracle. The offense sucked, the defense sucked and the goaltending sucked.

Speaking of crappy penalties, let's talk about a penalty that wasn't called. VandeVelde is tripped behind the net, Wisconsin gets the puck, goes down and scores the first goal of the game. Then Blood gets a penalty because a Wisconsin player steps off the bench in front of him when he's going to celebrate his goal.

The refs blew tonight, but what do you expect from Todd Anderson?

McDonagh's penalty that allowed Kristo to tie it up was the worst call of the game. First of all they barely even touched, my 4 year old daughter would not have gotten knocked down on that hit. Secondly, they called a cross check, yet McDonagh's stick was on the ice.

Either way after the first period the Badgers were coasting out there, reaching for the puck instead of getting in front of the man. Effort was seriously lacking after the first.

Sue Sweep?

They swept the last two periods and OT. That's what counts.

Really? Go back and watch it again. I did 3 or 4 times. Smith swung his stick at the puck, and it hit the ND players stick. The ND player was off balance and fell forward. Smith's stick never touched him. And since he had the puck, he can be checked.

Careful with these comments. We don't want the UW fans to be lumped in with UAA and UND fans for whining about the refs.

Swinging a stick at a guy is checking him? It was a penalty, but I wouldn't call it in OT, not after the stuff they let go in the last 5 minutes of the third.

Re: UW @ UND... The DOTA travels West

I usually try to stay away from the name-calling, except for the gophers, in which case name-calling is just being honest. But I have to wonder: how do these red and white people deal with being a rodent and ugly both. Gophs are rodents, but they can at least lay claim to being a little cute, with that big, toothy grin. Badgers, though, get the double whammy. If I were both rodent and that ugly, I have to ask the Hamlet question. You can have the top rated offense, the top rated defense, all kinds of top draft picks, and sweep the weekend series. But knowing you will wake up tomorrow still that ugly and living in a hole . . . I don't know. Kinda makes you have tender feelings for them.

Is that kind of like being both hostile AND abusive?
