Joe said today on his show that the non-5 on 3 was the right call. I still fail to see from reading the rules how that was the right call.

I asked this of an official I know and initially he said it should have been a 5x3 but upon review stated they got the call right, basically a delayed penalty doesn’t result in an added advantage when a goal is scored while a major penalty is being served. I dont really agree with this but the refs, the WCHA and my source agree now with the call.

Which I would be fine with, if somebody could point to the section in the rule book that says that. But at this point it doesn't matter anyways, on to Bowling Green.

I just hope the team puts it behind them and comes out this weekend determined to stay disciplined and make a statement. If Tech is a strong team, BG should be worried about having to face them at the Mac this weekend. It's time to prove something, boys.

Also, Shane Frederick was really critical of the refereeing on Twitter, and that's something that I don't see him do very often.

I'm not big on it either. A good team can overcome alot of mistakes from referees, but they just seemed to go overboard there at the end of the 3rd period.

Just listened to the JSH; Coach Shawhan although concerned still sounds pretty confident in his current goal tender. I watched this weekend's goals on WCHA TV, listened to the MnSU announcers and don't feel as confident. The announcers mentioned over and over again how the goal tender never had good control of the puck and gave up a lot of dangerous rebounds. Coach Shawhan seems to be more concerned about the guys in front of the goalie. Obviously Coach Shawhan knows 1000 times what I do about goaltending but from my vantage point I would try one of the other guys this weekend. You can't blame 8, three goal or more games all on bad defensive play, can you? I think the guy may be a good goalie but you need a great goalie to steal a game or two once in a while if you want to be successful. Maybe that's coming but I haven't seen anything to make me real confident.
Am I missing something?

We have a commitment from 20-year-old Janesville Jets forward TJ Polglaze. Perhaps a replacement for Chris Gerrie. Kid's character must be "off the charts" because he's got 4 goals in 56 career NAHL games.

For those of you attending the November 10th game at the JMSIA against NMU, Michigan Tech is holding a Military Appreciation weekend. They're hoping for a "Camo-Out" in the stands instead of a whiteout or blackout. And maybe more noteworthy - the Huskies will be wearing one-off camouflage hockey jerseys, which will be up for bids during the game with a silent auction. The only way to make a bid is to be in the arena, there are no online bids.

Cue the shot of Ryan both drooling at the jerseys and fuming that he can't be there.

Military auction, hmmm. At least I have time to formulate my plan of attack. I guess I'll have to commence stealth operation "Blackbird Bid".
Might be a good chance to slap that brand new Husky logo right on the front of the jersey since all the traditional fans will hate them anyway.

Back 6-7 years ago when OT Sports was producing the Huskies jerseys, they offered this design to the team, but the Tech staff didn't go forward with the concept.

There was a story in the Wisconsin State Journal this week about the future of the UND-Wisconsin rivalry.

The teams will play next year in Grand Forks, but don’t have anything scheduled beyond that.

UND coach Brad Berry said that he wants to play teams from a lot of different conferences annually. Berry specifically mentioned Michigan Tech as an opponent that he wants to get back on the schedule.

As a UND fan, I'd love to see UND/MTU play again. I know there are still some Tech fans that have angst regarding UND/NCHC but I'd love to be able to travel up to Houghton as I never did when UND was in the WCHA.

If a team like UND is up for an equal trade of home/away games, I'm all for it!

Finally listened to the Joe Shawhan show and I thought he spoke regarding the reffing on Saturday very well. Not the quality we should see at the D1 level.
