I think Parrottino just scored again.

The refs were having nothing of the Loughran's diving and Dirk made a couple mentioned of it.

I would agree but Laughran also got mugged a couple of times with no call. And so did a couple of other of their players. It was surprising to me that NMU had airtight defense thru 1.75 periods but as soon as we scored the first one it collapsed.

He seems to flop around on the ice like a lake trout every time he gets bumped, looking for a call. Followed by spearing guys with a butt end after whistles. He’s in for a short weekend if he thinks NMU style hockey will win playoff games. The refs can see right through it and they’re much less likely to play along in playoff games.

I'm guessing that video got around and the refs are keeping an eye on him...

I'm thinking the play at centre ice with Halonen? and Loughran would have been 2 for holding had Loughran not embellished it. The referee had the choice to call them both or let them play. There were relatively few penalties in the game. I think if there were more, they both would have been called.

Great game last night, after a slow start Tech really took care of business. Need to weather NMU's first 10 minutes tonight and bring it tonight.

Those 3 plays by Tommy P last night showed how driven he is. Total compete, total effort, and quickly becoming Mr. Clutch....

Great win Tech! Great team effort. We have some things to clean up, but overall they are getting better.

In game one in Marquette today, Calumet mercied Gaylord 11-1 in D3 state quarterfinal. Moving on to play the private hockey academies in Plymouth next week. I take it as a good sign.

Sounds like NMU was gifted this OT. Looked offside live, though.

NMU television guys said they had a clear look which the refs don’t have access to, and saw his back leg was onside. Why in the world aren’t all the views available to the refs? They’re left to just take a guess?

I don't believe that the broadcast has a view not available to the officials. Based on what I saw on Twitter, I'm assuming the refs felt his trailing skate was off the ice. So he was no longer in contact with the neutral zone when the puck entered and it became an offsides play.

They said they do. Maybe one of them snapped a Polaroid or made a quick courtroom sketch 😁
If they see tape of Bliss getting tackled we will see a quick makeup call to start the 2OT.

Flohockey wasn't flowing for me this weekend. I'm ok with Dirk and Phil - they do a great job. Until ... half way through the OT the feed failed. Epic fail. I think the service is over loaded down here with snowbirds downloading Farmville, or whatever. Oh? I am a snowbird? Shut the f^ up! I want my hockey! So what happened????? who Won???
