2009-2010 New Hampshire Wildcats Season

Re: 2009-2010 New Hampshire Wildcats Season

Beaten Like a Rented Mule ...
All mule references aside, Syracuse results over the first two weekends demonstrate that they are better than your typical 2nd-year program -- especially notable given their coach's late hire date.

Dammmn skippy they are. A very hard working, in your face, group of girls who are very well coached.

Really? Are we talking boiled? Baked stuffed? Lobster Rolls?

PLEASE elaborate!

Hey, Big Daddy's is the real deal. Technically not all you can eat as they limit you at six 1 - 1.25 pound steamed lobsters served w/drawn butter. No sides of any kind. Thought I'd eat six but topped out at 5. They bring you 2 and then 2 more the last 2 they bring one at a time. But they were fresh and tasty. Big menue w/lots of other fish, seafood & meat items. Wife had the prime rib special - cooked just right w/homemade mashed and fresh geen beans. $10. All in, no alchohol, $38. Best value I've had in NE.

The place is a big Texas road house type place w/big bar & big TV screens w/all the sports going. Stage for live music at night. Very local. I was the only Mass lic plate on the lot.

It's less than an hour to the UNH rink on some beautiful windy back roads. Leaves were great. Could be harder to navigate in mid-winter snows though.

You may have talked Hux into a trip up:)

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, guess mine (Mass plates) will be the only one there next weekend then. Only 30 minutes from Casa de DC, so it will be hard to pass up given your review.

Getting ready for the weekend series against Niagara, and admittedly working a post bump.

Do purple eagles exist in the nature?

Gib,

Tell me you got a shot of the "no goal" in OT.

I got a shot of the "no goal" in OT

I actually didn't, but I like to do what I'm told...
I couldn't see it from the side where I was, just have the players reacting.

Either way, they played poorly for the last 40 minutes of regulation and it shouldn't have come to that. It was a ridiculous call from everyone I've heard who actually saw it, but what can you do...

Yeah, it all comes down to the angle the officials have of the play. On the tying goal by Niagara, the play had been in the UNH zone for a minute or so, and the official was behind the net farside. He had a perfect view, and though Minton got a solid chunk of the puck, it had enough momentum to trickle over the goal line. I could see both the ref and the goal judge lean forward after the thunk of the "save" and I knew it was loose. Minton was frozen, thinking she had the puck, but the ref never called it loose.

Then you had UNH's goal that was no goal in OT that came on entry into the zone, before the officials got below the goal line, and when that puck was loose (and in the process of going over the line) they blew the whistle once they lost sight of it.

are they waiting for league games for replay?

Agreed.

That said, I never like when it comes down to a referee's call.

I was behind the Niagara net on that goal, and the puck definitely squirted through and crossed the line. the goal judge put the light on, but as Hux said, the referee lost sight and blew a quick whistle. If he's straddling the goal line we get two points today instead of one, because the puck was definitely loose and moving over the line when the whistle blew.

That said, Gibber hit the nail on the head. UNH mailed it in after the first, and it obviously got delivered to the wrong bench:(

That particular call (whistle blew) is one that never seems to be much helped by replay. If they rule "no goal" on the ice, even if replay shows the puck going in, it seems like the referee tends to just say, "but I whistled the play dead".

UNH mailed it in after the first, and it obviously got delivered to the wrong bench:(
Just so it doesn't wind up in Brad Frost's office; don't want to get the Duluth folks upset again.:p
