26th Alaska Governor's Cup - Decade Sweep Edition

Re: 26th Alaska Governor's Cup - Decade Sweep Edition

I'm still confused as to why Sinclair was kicked out at the end of the game? The Nanook goalie took his second penalty of the night (I think) when he deliberately pushed the net off … but Sinclair wasn't even near any scrums. Head scratcher.

3429 people there tonight. If they could draw that kind of a crowd on a regular basis, the hockey program would almost pay for itself.

Rule 26.2, awarded goal. They should be in OT.

Unfortunately I'm out of town or I'd have been there, but I saw the attendance number.

Honestly even the normal 1800 or so is fairly decent for a program that's so down. There is real potential for a good fanbase but I'm not sure the program can get it together with the budget sword constantly hanging over its head. I'm rooting for you guys.

Was the puck close to going in? That goalie is a real piece of work. How many times did he punch, slash, trip, etc? Does he always play so dirty?

Certainly looked like it on replay.

26.2 Infractions – When Goalkeeper is On the Ice – A goal will be awarded when an attacking player, in the act of shooting the puck into the goal (between the normal position of the posts and completely across the goal line), is prevented from scoring as a result of a defending player or goalkeeper displacing the goal post, either deliberately or accidentally. (This is from the NHL rule book).

Well, I looked at the box score and they called unsportsmanlike conduct on Sinclair. I think that was the "ref special" for the weekend.

No, it's the NCAA Rule Book.

He was defending his ice. He may have been a bit dramatic. No worse than Mantha when he would react to people getting up in his face.

There were multiple 10 minute misconducts on Friday and another one tonight that were not associated with game misconducts.

Please explain why any were undeserved. Usually those kind are for “illegal use of the mouth.” Chirp at the ref. Use a couple of the wrong phrases. You get 10.

Anton used his upper body to block the original shot. It ended up pushing the net up when he has the action of blocking. This dislodged the net. When the refs didn’t notice it was dislodged, he pushes it back because any goal wouldn’t have counted anyways.

Had 25+ years to figure it out and one winning season since joining the WCHA. Meanwhile look at every other sport and they have done since hockey went big time.

We would have lost in OT or the shootout anyways.

Reminds me of a joke I heard on SpongeBob 15+ years ago.

You are soo cheap, you can't even pay attention.

So if that is what happened, the faceoff should have been in the defensive zone instead of the neutral zone. All this talk of awarding a goal is a bit out of context. That rule is for when there is clear evidence the puck is going in, such as on an empty net and a player knocks the net off on purpose.
