Now you wait for the NDSU vs. UM/BC game tonight.

NDSU had one good year about 5-6 year ago, making the Final Five, and now everyone thinks that they will win it all. WILL NOT HAPPEN!

That being said, the BC-Mankato game tonight should be a good one.

:p:D:D

If anyone outside New England tries to watch the game on NESN, post if the game is blacked out please. According to FSN, ESPN is forcing blackouts for anyone outside the channel's "footprint"
Be interesting to see if NESN has to black the game out...

Live in Minnesota and just turn on NESN, no blackout on that channel.

So it appears to be ESPN just screwing with Fox Sports affiliates. Thanks, ESPN!

Where did they dig up these officials? Cripes, they make Benedetto look like Andy Van Hellemond.
 
Re: 2012 West Regional: North Dakota vs Western Michigan; Minnesota vs Boston Univers

The BU defense needs to MOVE THE PUCK!!! Jeez...they just hold it...MOVE IT!!!!
 
Re: 2012 West Regional: North Dakota vs Western Michigan; Minnesota vs Boston Univers

You're right. NCAA Rule book gives no discretion to referee for contact to head penalty. Huh, learned something there. I guess that the first time I've seen that called is in NCAA regional is more a comment on the rest of the officiating in college hockey....

Weakest 5 minute major....evah. Minor, sure, left his feet. Major, total joke, like this crew

Yeah, but your reputation precedes you. They've been the most penalized team in the country most of the year. They beat themselves every time with ridiculous penalties. It's too bad...they have a lot of talent and could certainly have won this game...

See, that's the thing with noobs. After you choke down the first one, they start to go down reeeal smooth. Just like water and you feel like a million bucks (no pun intended ;)) and then the next thing you know it's morning and you wake up in the giraffe enclosure.
 
Re: 2012 West Regional: North Dakota vs Western Michigan; Minnesota vs Boston Univers

Well, after a quick check of the rule book, it looks like they were major call there was defensible. Left his feet, and seemed to target the head. Rule states 5 and a game, no discretion.

BTW, I'm not even trying to say these officials are biased against BU. There have been some borderline / bad calls on Minny, too. I just hate that, like in the roundball tournament, high stakes 1 and done games are being officiated so, so poorly. Is it that hard to find competant officials to not screw up these games?
