The video feed is so bad right now that the Gametracker is actually ahead of video...so much for 'live.'

Anyone else having issues?

Glad I wasn't the only one. It was about 10 minutes behind. Of course, this means I have not seen the OT penalty yet which I hear was a real winner. Just an embarassing night for the zebras. The Tomassoni penalty toward the end of the second was one of the most comical things I've ever seen.

In our last 2 home games, we have given away 6 leads. Not acceptable.

Keith is no longer my favorite ref. More venting to come.

Well, there were about three penalties on big Wideman at the same time and all they saw was him hit the kid to get him off of him? Buuulllllll.

We got ref-balled pretty hard tonight...

That being said, we didn't play that well anyway.

Hey, it cuts both ways. Good goal disallowed because it deflected off the ref before deflecting off another player and/or the goaltender into the net? Absolutely no basis for disallowing a goal. No call on an obvious trip that led to the shorty? A 5 min major tonight against OSU on a hit that was no different than 6 other hits by both teams in the game? I daresay that both teams have legit beefs with the officiating, but the bottom line is that they have to find a way to win by controlling what they can control on the ice (which is definitely not the officiating). Miami did that last night by dominating control of the game with intensity, skill and perseverence, which took OSU off their game big time. OSU did the same to Miami tonight. End of story. Miami is definitely much better than their record. Much better. I have no doubt they will be knocking teams off regularly after the break and making major noise in the playoffs.

At the end of the day, we had a terrible turnover leading to goal (again) and there's the difference. Hope everyone enjoyed their Miami tripleheader weekend, I head All-Access was on it's A game for it :D

It's getting to the point that it's more exciting and enjoyable to follow the Twitter coverage of the game than to try to suffer through All-Access feeds. Combine that with the price hike this year and I'm not sure how anyone can justifying renewing their accounts.

And we'll end this vent session with a quote from the game tonight... "When the sorority girls know you missed the call, you know you fu**ed up."

We talked to the whole officiating crew before the game. The puck hit the lineman's face mask, then hit our goalie in the back, then went into the goal. That is not allowed. Not many people saw what happened so that is why there was confusion. As for tonight, it's always the player that retaliates that gets caught. That's hockey.

So I'm at 45, this ******** referee is walking around giving his number to every girl he can find, one of which is my girlfriend who proceeds to give me the number, not that exciting I suppose, but funny none the less.

Edit: I've been drinking, currently posting from my phone at the bar. Please spam the **** out of this guy.
