2015-2016 Division I Women's Hockey Scores & Results
- Thread starter brookyone
- Start date
I noticed WI being very physical the last time they were here. Not really dirty but well over the line for what has been acceptable in games. They deserved several more than they got. This, I assume is the future of womens hockey give the officiating we have seen this year. Wisconsin is ready for it.

For the immediate future, I was trying to remember what officiating we've been getting in our annual NCAA match-ups. Last year, it was a Hockey East pair, the year before it was WCHA. For the 2012 Final, it was WCHA.
So in two weeks (assuming...) who knows?

ne7minder, although it's a pro league, if you've watched any of the CWHL games this weekend, you'd see a much rougher game than the collegiate woman's game.....that said, I think the players like the freedom to play hard and have contact....no checking, but contact.

This wasn't really checking, though there was some of it that went uncalled. It was hooking and holding all over the ice. Even though the called penalties were four for Wisconsin and one for Minnesota, the officiating greatly benefited the Badgers. It wasn't biased, but was critically important in how the game was played. When a player chipped the puck and tried to go around a defender, it was perfectly legal to impede them. If the puck was along the boards, it was perfectly legal to grab their shoulder and pull them away from it. If a player was trying to get to a loose puck, it was perfectly legal to have your stick in their midsection, pulling them back.
The Gophers played a poor first period, but after that were much better. Overall, I'd say that Wisconsin was the better team today, given the conditions under which the game was played. That's a really big conditional, though. With a different crew, it would have been a very different game.

In December, it was Ludwig and Paskey.
In February, it was Ludwig and Morrison.

IMHO, that is a core of the Badgers game. They are relying on being able to do that.

I also don't think Wisconsin played that style in February, at least not anywhere to the same extent. Or in December; there were some bad calls in that series, but not the same sort of constant obstruction.

If they rely on being able to do that against Trivigno there will be a lot of broken noses by the end of the afternoon.
