so, right now since Adrian has 23 pts and rf will likely finish w/ 23 also..wouldn't the tie break go to Adrian? so it would actually be:

1 LFC
2 Adrian
3 RF
4 Point

? i'm just wondering because I'm not sure what order the tie break criteria go in
 
Re: D3 Game Updates Continued

Hopped over the border to watch the Mville – Platty game and it seemed as though Mville gave Platty all they could handle. Game could have gone either way with a bounce here or a bounce there . The #9 team in the country taking the #1 team in the country to overtime in their barn says something. Mville being on their third game of the weekend looked as though they had more legs than Platty at times. Mville played a team game tonight I was impressed with their tenaciousness. while Platty showed why there #1 as they weathered some pressure by Mville and found a way to win. I don’t think Platty has seen a team pressure them as hard as Mville did tonight all year. Great Crowd too!
 
Re: D3 Game Updates Continued

good game at Point today. Just a question though, I did not have a good view of the Adrian goal line but two of the Adrian goalies saves appeared to be carried across the goal line from my vantage point. One she caught in the chest and looked like she with the puck fell backwards across the goal line. the other was a nice sweeping glove save that that appeared to be carried across the goal line. Not complaining at all., but what's the ruling on pucks carried over the goal line?

Adrian came through when they had to. Congrats to them.

From the NCAA Rule book P. HR-68:
If the puck is between the goalkeeper’s pads or lodged in the equipment
and is carried over the goal line by a teammate pushing the goalkeeper or if
the goalkeeper propels it over the goal line, the goal shall be allowed (see
6-18-c-13).

I believe there must be continuous movement and, of course, no whistle prior to the puck crossing the line. I have witnessed this call missed many times because the ref does not have a full view of the action, or was not in proper position to make the call. It is also a difficult call, because the goalie often recovers and quickly pulls the puck back over the line.

as much as i don't like it, you're right. straight out of the NCHA constitution:

26.4 Seeding of Teams. The teams will be seeded based on the final regular-season standings. In the
event of a tie in the standings among one or more teams, the seeding will be determined (in order) by
the following criteria:
(a) Most NCHA wins among tied teams.
(b) Goal differential in NCHA games played between tied teams.
(c) Goal differential in all NCHA games.
(d) Coin flip conducted by the Commissioner.

i'm praying Lea and the rest of Concordia can pull off a sweep over LF. Adrian has at least #2.

LF win:
LF
Adrian
RF
SP/EC/Sup

Concordia sweep:
Adrian
RF
LF
SP/EC/Sup

the #4 spot then breaks down to goal differentials. SP has the tie breaker with Sup. the only way Sup makes it in is if they get more points than SP this weekend. EC has the tie breaker with SP though. if they all still end up the same, SP has the tie breaker.

i think i covered all the situations there. if not ask and i have it figured out

Plattsburgh was all over M"ville in the Saturday game. They dominated play probably 95% of the time.

Today, a different story.....it seemed like the Cards were trying to coast to a victory, and M'ville came at them hard for the whole game. Both goalies were outstanding today and I thought the game was going to end in a tie. Moberg going in all alone with 24 seconds left in OT was the difference. She is the last person, M'ville would want to have the puck in that situation! Sunday's game was a lot more fun to watch! M'ville could surprise some teams down the stretch.
 
Re: D3 Game Updates Continued

WIrinkrat: The question I asked was a very valid question. If you would not be so concerned about my mental state and look at the facts, past and present, and not just about Chatham, you would see that in years past, other schools who were not recording wins did not lose players at the rate Chatham is. Augsburg College, 2-9-3 record with a full bench, Castleton State, 4-12-1 record with the same many players they started with, even Chatham's conference mate Potsdam, record 5-8-0 have only lost 3 players, Marian U, 1-13-0 record has only lost 2 players. So the question remains: Chatham started with 20 players, dropped to 18 early on and now can only field 11 skaters and 1 goalie, why? That is the question you have not answered. In your post you stated that maybe some were unhappy with their ice time. I am sure I am not the only one wondering, if a team is short benched, why would the reason be lack of ice time? There are many reasons players leave a team and I am not saying it is the Coach, I am not saying it is the rigorous academics nor am I saying it is because it is a all girls environment. I am saying their player loss rate seems unusually high and I am hoping the AD takes a good look at the program and attempts to ascertain why.

Oh and by the way, I did post a congrats after Oswego. I know you are very proud of those two wins against them and it is an improvement over the one win over Oswego last year and the one the year before in conference play. Just stating a fact...

Ends in another tie.....River Falls pulls goalie again in OT today. Foresters had a shot or two at the empty net but couldn't get it in.

Can someone explain why River Falls would pull their goaltender and risk losing these games? What's the coach's thinking?

I believe with a loss in either of those games RF would have still finished in top 4 and hosted a quarterfinal. But, beating LF in at least one of those games was the only way for RF to have a shot at finishing first and hosting the final four.

Are they discounting any shot at a Pool C bid? It would seem they were willing to put all of their eggs in the NCHA basket. And I'm not saying that's right or wrong....just interesting strategy.

my guess is that Cranston felt he needed to win one of these games to secure a better chance at a Pool C.


That being said...I think there will be 3 western teams this year, especially if Lake Forest loses in the final four of O'Brien cup. A case can definitely be made for River Falls to recieve a pool C at this time. Also if someone other than Gustavus wins the MIAC, I think Gustavus still has a shot.

We should get NCAA rankings tomorrow and see how things are shakin out.
