So,they basically do jack for two months, then this? Actually,it's Tirone. But the same question applies. On to Lowell.

As they say in golf, it's not "how," it's "how many?"

I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I'm just interested if some official out there has an explanation of the interpretation (and I'm not opining one way or another). Where do you draw the line between a penalty and embellishment? Put another way, if it's blatant enough to call embellishment, then how can you be sure it's a penalty in the first place? Conversely, if it's an obvious penalty (and blatant enough to be called), what difference does the embellishment make? Just wondering...

Agreed 100%. It really should be either/or. It's become an officiating cop-out IMO.

Any officials want to comment on this for us?

HR...I could see the pom poms on the Hockey East stream.

Salvaggio ENG wraps it up at 5-2 UNH. Well done, 'Cats (never saw it coming, but kudos!)!!!

5+ minutes left, UNH still hanging in there, MC apparently throwing everything but the kitchen sink at 'em ...

4-2. 12 minutes left. This is where it can get really interesting ...

The cascade of UNH penalties ("even it up") is already underway. Hopefully MC too frustrated to take advantage.

Sounds like Merrimack is starting to press, gifting UNH a brief 5 x 3 early in the 3rd period.

HUGE 20 minutes coming up, with lots of very interesting potential implications riding on the outcome. GO CATS!!

That second period was brought to you by Danny Tirone. Maller takes a hard shot. Starting the third on PP go 'Cats!!
