My point exactly... they already DO! Not sure it could get any worse.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
I am pretty stunned by this whole "UND loses a game, fire the ref" thing that happens when UND loses. Just like clockwork on here. It is kinda like the whole "your goon is a worse goon then our goon this game, so you guys need to stop it" whenever a team stands up to UND.
I like this whining, so please keep it up.

You should head over to GPL then, they were whining nicely earlier this week.
"Is player X leaving UMN...no, but I heard player Y was leaving at Xmas. Oh crap, player Z just left school!"

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
Yeah, I'm just not sure we'll have the space for him, unfortunately.
Especially with Mattson and Forbort coming in next season. He'll make a good practice squad dman though for the Sioux.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
he is not from Canada, and he isn't 25 years old yet, so UND wouldn't want him. besides, he wants to play for a coach that can win a National Championship or two, not one like hasktool that always chokes.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
it's a burden when you have all that NHL ready talent.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
I doubt that's it. Judging by all the UMN players leaving at midseason recently (is that four years in a row now?), it doesn't look like many players want to play for Lucia.
Wrong again. Lofquist couldn't even play in the ECHL, let alone the NHL.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
I doubt it and here's why:
1. You don't pretend to not have a bias. You are a Gopher fan and everyone knows it. So, both sides know what they're getting.
2. I doubt you'd enforce parity by calling the better team more than the lesser team.
3. Home cooking to you is undoubtedly something the wife/mother/mother-in-law (maybe) cooks up not something that occurs at a sporting event.
4. I'd pray for consistency, for sure, but at least you'd be more consistent than Don Adam.
So, there you go.
Oh, and to modify a Lucia quote: "How come when a hit-related injury involving UND occurs, does Don Adam always seem to be the official that misses it?"
Todd Anderson might not know the understanding of Interference as a penalty, but I've never met an official who didn't understand CFB majors could cause injury. Anderson sucks as an official, but Adam is 1 million times worse because he blows calls, sure, but he tends to blow calls that result in unsafe playing situations. So, when Adam is on the ice, I, as a fan, am now worrying which Sioux or opposing player for that matter is going to get injured.
I think Motzko pulled Marvin not because of the hit. I think he pulled him because to not do so would have invited potential injury without any recourse or protection from the officials. A wise move.
Remember: Don Adam is the guy in stripes you don't want to hear is officiating your game... especially when you don't have health care coverage.
Oh, would you guys hate me.

Re: Fire Don Adam!!!!!!
To be fair to Don, him missing the call was the result of really awkward timing. Looking at the replay, from what I can tell, the hit occurred at just about the same time as an attempted clear along the boards toward Adam, which caused him to turn away to protect himself from the puck.

hopefully Adam will ref every sue game, that way the Ralph will be flooded by all the tears, and float down to Winnipeg, where it belongs.

Maybe a couple Gophers can hitch a ride so they can float on up to Canada. It'll make things even easier for them to sign with their respective NHL team.
