Re: 2019-20 D1 Scores
I've noticed that a lot of fans at women's games are easily confused by loud crashes into the boards. Women players master a skill that their male counterparts don't need: the ability to skate into the boards in front of an opposing player to cut her off without running into her directly. Plenty of folks in the crowd think that it's a check when it happens, but it's not. That's not quite what happened on this play, but it was similar. The two players skated hard, were engaged with each other, and ran into the boards next to each other. It's unfortunate that Bowlby went down, though I also thought it was a ridiculously quick whistle to stop the play.
