    That second, slower replay of the forward angle (1:38:25) convinced me: The puck hits the inside bar. It could only be the crossbar if the puck stuck there for three or four frames of film.

    EDIT: Yep, I see the skate lace on top of the net change positions also. Too blurry to see the actual movement.

    NCAA Hockey on Facebook has been posting complete games, or highlights of previous National Championships.

    I was intrigued when they posted the 1993 LSSU/Maine matchup, if only because of the mystique that surrounds the "tying" goal LSSU scored. Or, didn't as was decided back then.

    Here's the complete game: https://www.facebook.com/ncaahockey/videos/229110831625995/
    The goal in question is at the 1 hour, 36 minute, 50 second mark. (Just under one minute of game time remaining.)


    Sure looks like it was the tying goal to me.

    You can argue what you'd like about the fact that the first two hit disadvantaged communities means that there's not a lot of desire to close those vaccines out. Okay. But Asia has the population density to be scared witless about a coronavirus, and they haven't figured it out in almost 20 years.

    That said, Bill Gates's approach of pursuing multiple vaccine regimens simultaneously is a great one.

    Also, that said, Bill Gate's back-check is freaking terrible, and no, UAH, he's not an eligible grad transfer (he violated his NCAA eligibility when he left college).

    The same reason why we, USA, don't have an approved manned spacecraft. No one put in the time, resources, testing, solved the technical challenges, met a need,...

    For HIV/AIDS they have been researching a vaccine for 20+ years. Numerous trials have been done, but none of them have proven to be safe and effective.

    For SARS and MERS, there is no need for a vaccine. They were contained and the virus died-off. Same thing happened with smallpox. If anyone on the planet is still vaccinated for smallpox, it is the small number of people who work in one of the two labs that have the last viable viruses. It has been "eliminated" and is no longer a threat to humanity.

    Ebola is a different topic completely. It is found in remote parts of the world where there is limited access. It appears, is contained, disappears. People forget about it and life goes on. Then it re-emerges and is contained. With the increased population, improved access/travel, it has an easier time getting outside of those regions where it occurs and becomes a global risk.

    You can't snap your fingers and have a vaccine. It takes a lot of testing to prove that the solution is effective and has a suitable risk profile.

    I can see there being a lot of pressure on the FDA to push this through faster though just the clinical testing will take a while. It's the data compiled and getting through it with the panels that can be forced to speed up. We'll see.

    You give Gate's too much credit as all drugs/vaccines etc have multiple regimens. The other side to multiple regimens is the FDA panels will need more time to go thru more data to say which are marketable.

    I’ll get this out there in writing so I can peel egg off my face if I’m wrong, but if the Mavericks aren’t in the top 2 of the WCHA standings next season, I’ll be shocked. Assuming there is a season.

    End of the year look at BSU's stats and such. Only losing four guys so far, three seniors and a grad transfer (wouldn't surprise me if there is another transfer or two as it is just the nature of college hockey now). Those four are going to be hard to replace. Brady put up nice numbers this year, Muck was a very strong defensive asset that scored some this year, and Sjodahl was a very strong defensive forward. Henry Johnson gave the Beavers a more than capable backup if Driscoll would have faltered (which he didn't). But, the cupboard is not bare by any means, so there is a lot to look forward to!

    You sure it's going to be a grad transfer? Beydoun allegedly had 15 teams interested. Seems like a lot of teams could be left scrambling.

    They'll have a grad transfer, Sophomore and Freshman. They're also only losing 18 goals out of 104...one of the most returning goals in the country.

    Most of the Beavers' non-conference schedule is now known:

    The Beavers will host the North Dakota Fighting Hawks October 9 and the Hawks will host the Beavers October 10.

    BSU will play St. Cloud State in Bemidji on November 20 and travel to St. Cloud on November 21.

    The Beavers will also head out east to play Mass-Lowell and Merrimack on November 27 and 28.

    UMD released their home non-conference schedule, BSU will be at Duluth on Saturday, January 2. I would assume that the 'dog will be in Bemidji on Sunday, Jan 3?

    EDIT: The Duluth News-Tribune is reporting UMD at BSU January 1.
