Re: Elmira Soaring Eagles 2010
OMG...chuckle, chuckle...

I think that inadvertent high stick actually struck #7 Alyssa Chwick. While this incident may have been inadvertent, a player is still responsible for her stick. If you follow play away from the puck, the Soaring Eagles always have their hands up and you can observe a lot of stick work on their part. When this type of play is allowed to pass, and then Amherst is whistled for what I can see as incidental contact (Zukas checking) and players tangled in a scrum on the boards (Dennett hooking) you wonder what the refs are thinking?
What I saw was that the Elmira player was falling on her own, and the Amherst player, in the process of playing the puck, made contact with the Elmira player's head, which was at knee level.From what I heard, Zukas did not even touch the Elmira player, she fell by herself and Zukas got the call which caused the 5 on 3 situation at the end of the game. I also heard that the refs were very inconsistent last evening.
Amherst takes care of business 3-1 vs Elmira in the re-match. Sweet.
OMG...chuckle, chuckle...
I'll be the first one to give credit, where credit is due and I thought Amherst was the better team on this night.
Having said that I've seen two posts on the D3 score update thread by people that were actually at the game that suggests the reffing was less than stellar. Apparently even missing an EC goal in the second period.
My point is....is this the best crew they can send out for a 1/2 matchup? Out of position, can't keep up with the play, inconsistent calls/non calls on both teams, officials laughing and chatting at the blue line during play.
I would have expected their # 1 crew for a # 1 game....sure hope that wasn't the best they have.
These same refs work Div 1 games also. Wonder how they keep up?

Hey the gang is all here....Prof, Seymore, and my CIS moderator.....we are missing some of the old gang ...REX I can not remember his first name on the site. We did take it serious. I am still fighting the fight against the OWHA.
Seymore.....golf away...wish I was there playing a game with you.
Prof...are you retired now?
I am not sure if you all know....but I landed a good Gig out west and at hockey factory....you may have heard of it....Notre Dame....coaching a little hockey and running a Dorm.
Take care gang....Dice

Now.... in a break from action of the "Seymore...Ol' Homeweek" thread.
Elmira actually skates 2 games against the league penalty minute leading Potsdam Bears this weekend. Perhaps an opportunity to work on their PP scheme...
Predictions?
We said they couldn't keep up with the play of Amherst and Elmira...Plattsburgh they would likley have no problem with..
Can we also assume you condone officials standing at the blueline chatting while the play is ongoing?

Classy! What in my post would give you the idea that I condone blueline chatting during the game? I was merely stating that these same refs work the D 1 games where, presumably, the speed is even faster. If they can't keep up with D3, how do they keep up with D1?
Listen aerogroup2, I would love to have a battle of wits with you however.... you are clearly unarmed.
Oh wow...now THAT'S mean! (and original too!)
The more you talk, the more clearly I see why you chose EC purple.
Yer a beaut! haha.
