    Part of me thinks he'd like another kick at the can with the senior class he has teed up for next year. On the other hand, it is getting harder and harder to win a title. There were times looking at the field when I wondered who was even going to come close to giving UW a game in the tourney...

    More like 34, but yes. It was a strangely called game overall. There were so many obvious calls both ways let go, while the first call on each team was something we normally wouldn't see. WCHA refs would have taken a player from each team on the first call and would have made no call on the...

    The only thing that I'm sure of is that the officials messed it up. The review happened with 18.9. They look at a play that happens with around 53 seconds left. Then they assess that penalty, award the penalty shot, and drop the puck again -- still with 18.9 seconds left. That isn't right; the...

    The way this forum has been for much of the season, the surprise is that there is much in the way of conversation at all. Thanks for contributing! I think I started in "Scores" because we never had a FF thread, nor a UW vs tOSU Championship, or any other "official" thread. To the extent that I...

    It's a call you could make. It's also a call where you could say that she just swatted it out of the crease. Had she done so from the side, I think she's okay, but she did so from the top. It also hurt that when they showed the refs reviewing it, they always were looking at it in slow mo. Had...

    Congratulations on being the first program to 8 national titles.

    It was. It's also a cruel game. Dunne was the hero last year, and much of today, but she winds up being the player who wasn't able to control the rebound on the final play. I'm glad it didn't go for 3 OTs, because the quality of play would have fallen off of a cliff at some point.

    It's the puck. The puck has to keep moving forward. So if you pull back with your hands, but your momentum as a skater is still forward, it typically doesn't matter. It's when you are stopped and pull back that it would be a problem.

    First off, try not to give up a goal in the first 10 seconds while down a skater. After that, count your skaters.

    Sometimes the pulling back doesn't matter, because the skater is still moving forward, so the puck is, too. Here, she savored it a bit, so the whole play slowed down. As with most things, no way that these officials are going to be able to make that call unless they knew to take a look at it...

    Is that a legal goal? I looked at it several times, and I'm not sure. The puck must be kept in motion towards the goal line. If they used such a tight definition of covering a puck (called on replay, not live, so they figure it is clear and obvious), then I don't think that puck was moving...

    Now both teams look gassed. Last team standing wins.

    High level of play, even for one who would like both teams to lose.

    It's been a great final so far, and I'm really impressed by that Ohio team. However, they look to be running out of gas here late in the second.

    It wasn't me. There are people who follow the preps and U-18 ranks closely and know who is who; it was likely one of them. It wasn't until Covid days when those two made the difference in your 2021 title that I realized their true abilities.

    Sam isn't defending Murphy's play at all, or saying it shouldn't have been 5. I haven't seen anyone defend it. Ultimately, the officials didn't give her the game misconduct, or something more severe, for whatever reason. Worst hockey play you've ever seen? You can make statements like that...

    In recent interviews, Frost said that he'd never seen a player with Murphy's mix of grit and skill. I think the coach has a short memory. To me, she seems like a faster, smaller Lam w/o a sister. Add in Amy Potomak, and that's four players who Frost coached that had huge talent but discipline...

    The SH goal and this sequence seemed to be the key stretches of the game. Dan felt strongly that the rush that made it 4-2 was started by an uncalled interference penalty on UW against Huber. Given you and others didn't mention it, maybe not. Either way, UM is enough of an underdog that they...
