Ohio State Buckeyes 2023-24 The Muzzinator Gonna Muzzinate!!

[robertearle]

The sticking point for me was our disallowed goal because the ref lost sight of the puck but you had the exact same situation but the Wisconsin goal counted when there was no way the ref could see the puck beneath Thiele.

When was there a "disallowed goal"?

It was right in front of me in the second. The puck went into the net behind MacNaughton in the second, but several players had crashed into her before it happened and the ref waived it off immediately. And even none of the OSU players took issue with it.

On the replay I watched when I got home with O'Brien's goal (it was on the other end live) you could absolutely still see the puck behind Thiele's right pad and there was no major contact that would have changed the fact that everything was sliding backwards. The ref was right on top of the net to the point that he pointed directly downwards to signal goal.

Thiele never stopped moving. To have stopped or 'frozen' the puck, the goalie has to stop moving.

Based on the BTN Replay, the whistle clearly blew before the puck crossed the line. I was actually impressed that the audio in LaBahn could pick up the whistle so clearly.

The replay hasn't shown up on the BTN-Plus page for Saturday yet, at least not on my PC. Where are you seeing a replay?

Both teams learned that you can play solid for 59 minutes but in that 1 minute where you don't play great can lead to a loss. The first two goals you scored Friday were off horrific Wisconsin turnovers, bad decisions made in a split second. Wisconsin's second and third goals were scored in transition where obviously there was some bad decisions positionally in allowing those transitions to work out against you.

I do think overall that Tosu is the better team.

I think the two teams are pretty evenly matched, despite our 3-1 record against the Badgers this season. We won an overtime game in Columbus. If that one goes the other way, the record vs UW is 2-2. One thing we have going for us this season is this is the deepest team we have ever had. Coach can send all four of our forward lines out there and get scoring from any of them. We are solid on the back end as well (Ds and goaltending). Gonna be a fun ride.

Wisconsin could put out a fourth line, too, if we could just get 12 of them healthy at the same time!

For those of us at the watch party there was no audio and if there was I'm pretty certain the background noise at the Block O would have drowned it out so we had no idea when the whistle blew. It's just bad luck on the quick whistle and didn't get the same when the puck was under Thiele.

I was watching the BTN Telecast live, at home. Unlike the watch party, I had the volume on.

The replay I'm referring to is just the brief segment shown immediately following the live action. Instant Replay; not replay of the full game.

OSU still dragging it’s feet on a new arena and others move on.

I wish a reporter would ask OSU what the current status is. It was a positive when they approved the architect spend of last year….but what’s the current status?

I think this a way bigger threat to Muzerall’s sustaining success than the covid eligibility getting used up. The rink is an embarrassing display of inequity. Everyone knows it. At a certain point the recruits will take a hard pass.

As for RMU, good luck to them in getting that state funding. I hope they succeed.

It seems priorities shifted at the end of football season that the athletic department needed to right that ship before all else.

Do you have an opinion on if the whistle was on the quick side?

Well that hasn't hurt Coaches efforts in the last 8 years. Athletes come to play for her and the system that she put in place. Joy Dunne didn't come for a rink. Amos didn't come for a rink. Baxter didn't come for a rink. Next years class isn't coming for a rink and all the girls that came before didn't come for a rink. If thats what you want as an athlete then good luck. ELITE athletes want to become elite. I love our rink and all the great Buckeye fans that show up. All these beautiful rinks in college hockey and look at their programs ... it just shows what Muzerall has been able to build since arriving in 2017 way before covid.

I know you're completely serious but this is a very funny tweet.
