Badger D player trips over the refs skate (or the ref gets in the way of the Badger D!) causing the puck to go straight to a Gopher player, who dekes a shocker Badger goalie. 1-0, end of one period.
Just horrible, bad luck.

Wisconsin ties on a PP goal, but Minn gets a goal to go up 2-1, at the end of two. The difference is still the 'referee trip' goal.

A low slot shot that just trickles through, and then one that pinballs off of three or four players, and Minn wins 4-1.
All the luck went Minnesota's way today. They don't need it.

I think it was more than that, if that was the case at all.
Difficult and disappointing game to watch...not much flow, very choppy. Three strange goals.
UW were often sloppy and slow...losing the puck off their sticks with no one around them and often very content to be beaten to the puck when it didn't have to be that way. Although Desbiens played well, UW sure didn't look like a 3rd ranked team to me while UM did look like a 2nd ranked team especially as the game wore on...their skills became more apparent.

If there is a better team at protecting a third period lead than the Gophers I'd be surprised. Wisconsin had one big flurry in the first half of the third resulting in two shots and a good chance but otherwise didn't have a shot until there were about five minutes left and the game was out of reach. They make you go 200 feet and earn every inch of it. I thought the first two periods were very even but the third wasn't.
And I'll be shocked if you see anther Gopher game on TV any time soon because the puck loves Dani Cameranesi in ways the FCC usually won't let you broadcast.

Wow... that's quite an analogy. Not saying it's not legitimate, but... wow.
The eventual game-winning goal by Hannah Brandt completely changed the momentum of the game after UW had tied it less than 5 minutes earlier. Hannah collected a pass and fired through Desbiens' five-hole before the Badger defender could get to her. It felt like that really deflated the visitors.

It actually went under her right arm and in.

Correct -- low blocker. Cameranesi's shot also went in another spot that's hard for goalies to cover, tight to the body on the glove side, even if robertearle didn't like it.
Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread
Thats funny because I thought Wisconsin looked plenty fast, perhaps the fastest team MN has played all year. I also thought UW looked as good as any team MN has played all year, they looked like a solid #2 to MNs #1. Through most of 2 periods UW had a slight edge in shots It was choppy in parts but that was because neither team was giving an inch & breakaways were not going to happen.

Agreed. Maybe it didn't come through on TV but live I thought this was easily the best hockey game I've seen this year in terms of two teams playing great and playing hard throughout. Even in the third I thought Wisconsin played hard and well, but the Gophers not only had another gear and were also doing something that they do very well.

Re: 2014-2015 Division I Scores & Results Thread
I also agree with this. The pace was very fast throughout, or at least until the Gophers were able to take a commanding lead in the 3rd period. Until then, players on both teams had little time to make decisions with the puck and make a play. Two very good hockey teams competing very hard on every shift, and just from a hockey fan's perspective it was a lot of fun to watch. This one just happened to go the Gophers' way; they definitely got a few bounces that on another day might not have shown up on the scoreboard. Should be a great rematch tomorrow.

Elaine Chuli tied the UConn record for saves in a game, so congrats to her.
The final goal was into an empty net, so it's four goals on 20 shots versus a goalie. The most lopsided period was the second, where Vermont had a 23-5 shot advantage, but was outscored 2-0, one a PP goal.

BC's already chased Desjardins, it's 5-0 after 1.
