I am talking about the newer crop of Refs. If there were some way to collate data on this in this century alone, and also the no. of times a Maine goal was disallowed due to crease violations vs. when the other team did it and was not disallowed and these were similiar, I think we'd be shocked at the results. Ref Bias, I tell ya :D

Someone at NHL.com thinks that Abbott and Flynn may see some action after this season is over for Maine: http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=621766

These two players have flown under the radar and have developed tremendously at Maine. The slapshot by Abbott last night was a howitzer. The way he strided into the puck on the pass from Shemansky was incredible. There was no way Cannata could have reacted quick enough to stop that one.

Reminded me of the blast the Minnesota player put past Jimmy Howard in an NCAA game years ago to win it I think 1-0 for Minnie...played at Marriucci ?

By the way, how's that petition going on Facebook?;) I don't do Facebook.
 
Re: Maine thread (cont) - Hobey Abbott goes Dancing

Did anybody else notice Shemansky had one heck of a game yesterday?

Yes, I did. He also took a big hit into the boards that required a visit from Culina. It appeared he was o.k. as he returned to the ice on the next shift. I was worried that he may have received another concussion.

When did this team turnaround? About the same time Tim started talking about the internet crazies on Facebook, coincidence?? I'm sure it is to you

I've never been a fan of his, blown off the puck too easy but he must have worked real hard this past summer as he has really improved. His first 2 steps are as good as anyone?? on the team. Not only did he play well last night but he had a great game friday also.
 
Re: Maine thread (cont) - Hobey Abbott goes Dancing

Well, based on years of following Maine Hockey, this particular law is immutable: if a puck goes off a Maine player's skate into an opponent's net, it is No Goal. If a puck goes off an opponent's skate into Maine net, it is a Goal. You should know better than that. :D

You should be thankful they didn't adopt the original BU proposal: no matter which goal it goes into, BU gets the tally. So, stop your whining!! ;-)

NHL signings for Flynn & Abbott...maybe...Flynn/N.Y.Islanders -- Abbott/Toronto...?
 
Re: Maine thread (cont) - Hobey Abbott goes Dancing

If you're referring to the Fire Tim Whitehead facebook group, it is a vocal crowd with 385 members. 3 new ones this week!

The 3 new ones this week are no doubt also MENSA candidates!:p

I heard last year Florida and the Pens were interested in Flynny, and I believe I read somewhere that he attended the Philly camp.
 
Re: Maine thread (cont) - Hobey Abbott goes Dancing

Does anybody know what section Maine fans will be in Friday night?

The ticket office said loge 21+22, they are sold out through the Maine ticket office already apparently. I dunno if you can get in there via ticketmaster or anything.

Right. There was nothing else to it. It was all Facebook. :rolleyes:

ADD to the conversation for once.... why is it alway "nuuuh uhhh, I know you are but what am I?"

of course the facebook crap coincided with timmy taking a look at what needed fixing... I am SURE he never thought that he was doing anything wrong.

I suppose you are next going to tell us that your meeting with the assistant AD bore fruit?

I noticed you dropped the name, but never reported results of that meeting?

I wonder if he just wanted to ask for your expert advice on how to clean up beer cans after Merrimack Students sullied the alfond floors?
