Alaska / UAA : the Strategic, Restructured, Combined 2019-20 Season Thread.

Re: Alaska / UAA : the Strategic, Restructured, Combined 2019-20 Season Thread.

At least we don't reside in Fairbanks. The school doesn't want to be there either. That's why they are UA_.

Dang, a shoot out win feels like a loss. Up 4-1, UAA was in full control of the game. I don't believe I have seen a 5 minute major call without the refs at least reviewing the hit. The 5 on 3 and then the 5 minute penalty killed it for UAA. Stay out of the box Seawolves!!!

They played much of the overtime short handed on weak calls. It is amazing they pulled off the win. They are playing with a lot more heart than I’ve seen in the past.

It has to be said to both UAA and UAF fans, expect these kind of weak calls this season and next.

Simple truth is that referees are looking for jobs and in college athletics there’s one way to do that: keep the coaches happy.

Close game, something happens it’s gonna go against UAA/UAF every time.

And the sad part is there’s nothing they can do about it.

Anyone know what the official shots were? The stat sheet seems way off from what Kurt announced.

I don’t believe that for a second. The refs have sucked equally in a lot of the games I’ve watched between top teams. Seems like WCHA reffing is just not consistent.

Don’t base your assumptions on observations of games that didn’t involve UAA or UAF. This is something that is very specific to UAA/UAF vs MMO school games.

Well another week, and another chance to come out of it in first place. Seven straight series have ended in splits, although hoping for a sweep, with the next two series against Bemidji and Mankato I would be plenty happy with a couple more splits. Though we have played more games than everyone except Tech, it would be awesome to finish our first half of the season at least tied for first place. GoNanooks!!
 
Re: Alaska / UAA : the Strategic, Restructured, Combined 2019-20 Season Thread.

Well 18 sog isn't going to win a lot of games against a quality goalie.
 
Re: Alaska / UAA : the Strategic, Restructured, Combined 2019-20 Season Thread.

Nooks lose to Bemidji last night 1-3. They went through the motions but for the most part had no pep in their step. Hope they come back tonight with more intensity and determination.

I was waiting for the ref to blow his whistle during the Beavers pp. They were firing the puck at our goalie. That must be a violation. If that was allowed, then surely our guys would also shoot the puck at their goalie on a pp.

Go Nooks!

I didn't watch the sucky flo hockey stream, but I did listen in. Sounds like UAA played a solid game, and Carlson stood on his head. I was so thrilled with the short handed goal Wicks got to put UAA up 1-0. Once again, third period 5 minute majors are the teams undoing. STOP IT GUYS!

That was not the "undoing" that happen with 45 seconds left already down 2-1...it did make getting the tying goal that much harder but thats not the reason UAA lost. Michigan Tech finally broke through for a goal...
