Oswego vs Plattsburgh "The Whiteout game"

Re: Oswego vs Plattsburgh "The Whiteout game"

ok, 2 points I want to make. I agree with pretty much everyone on their analysis. the penalty shot that was called, should not have been called as the defender touched the puck before he touched the Laker skater. an OSU fan that was sitting just in front of me agreed with me. however the second breakaway should have been called for a penalty shot. the other point isn't really a point, but more of a question..... when complaining about the Plattsburgh fan spitting into the towel, first off, she didn't really spit into it, secondly why would you put a "kiss cam" on 2 girls standing next to each other? every other "couple" that I saw was male/female, except for the 2 Cardinal fans that people are now complaining about.

I was at the game as well and I agree with your judgment on the penalty shot discussion. I didn't see the whole "spit on the towel" thing, I assume they showed this on the video board? Oh well thats not important. More importantly here for some people is your last comment, which I really do agree with, to an extent, and I do not understand why they do it. Firstly, the camera crew always seems to try an embarrass the opposing team somehow; showing the opposing teams' scratched players on the kiss cam for example. I do not think they meant to place two females on the kiss cam in an attempt to 'embarrass' the Plattsburgh faithful though. I don't know if thats what you meant but I figured I'd throw it out there. They should strickly stick with male/female "couples" because it truly shows the nature of the cameramen and WTOP to willingly show two females on the "kiss cam." I might get beat down for this but whats to say two males could not be shown??? They have never ever done it but will willingly show two females on a regular basis.
 
Re: Oswego vs Plattsburgh "The Whiteout game"

Anyone from WTOP got a recap video yet? I got the penalty shot on my cell phone, but never saw the penalty. Too many people standing and was dealing with the 1 year old lol. I'd also like to see the too many men penalties. Not dissagreeing with the call as it was being looked for the whole time, but normally its only called when the "extra" player is or has control of the puck or even in the general area. I saw players changing but the puck was on the far side blue line...was just a little confusing to me. Would love to see that Fox goal

It just looked like really poor communication on Platty's part. One guy goes to the bench and two guys come onto the ice. The puck was no where near the bench but both players that came onto the ice didn't realize that someone else had also come onto the ice and thus, six players were on the ice.

That what I thought but normally thats not called unless they are involved in the play. Seeing how it was on the far blue line I was confused.

The Cards did the same thing in Elmira...

True, but I don't think neither made any attempt to quickly jump back onto the bench. If either had recognized it and jumped back onto the bench, it might have been avoided, however, it looked like neither was aware of the situation and the ref was forced to call it despite no play on the puck by either.
 
Re: Oswego vs Plattsburgh "The Whiteout game"

Finally got to see the CC and the Lakers didnt let me down...The Platts game was off the hook, a few comments first and foremost I thought the refs were how they say AWE-FULL, they missed calls, got calls wrong and looked they wanted to be a part of the game instead of just being seen NOT heard, I on the other hand was seen and heard , as a Trooper asked me to calm down, and I told him this was calm wait until you see me excited lol, I digress, ...Both teams played well, lots of good hits, skating, I thought Platts had a 1/2 step at times but the lakers have many guys who can wheel as well.....Leis basically had problems with his rebounds, not sure if this is a problem all the time?? KGT, looked very good, calm cool and collected, and played the puck well, was impressed.......Thats about it, should b interesting the rest of the way......ow yea I sat infront of the Platts faithfull, only a few, but they made some noise, especially that guy with the goatee, loud something or other LOL......

Before you start calling people out, get your facts straight. WTOP has nothing to do with the Kiss Cam - it is done by a guy in the press box who works for Campus Technology Services and handles all the scoreboard stuff.

You said that they always seem to put opposing team players up on the board. How is that not two males? And that's something that often takes place, I've seen it happen in Rochester at Amerks games.

Get off your high horse and if you're going to talk trash do it to the right people.

WOW...how about you get off your high horse.

First, I would was assuming it was WTOP's cameras that are directed at the fans, if those specific ones are not, then I apologize but don't lash out at me because of my comment. I worked with WTOP as a student, and thus I am not in a position to outright lash at WTOP. I was making a comment based on the "video" and that video I thought was brought to us by WTOP.

Secondly, I have been to every home game at the campus center since it opened in 2006 through to when I graduated in December 2007. I have made numerous observations of the video board during the kiss cam. We used to make jokes about it, drawing a fake "couple" on the whiteboard...of which had been put on. However nearly every "couple" put on was male/female of which they were placed on a kiss cam for the reason of just that. I have seen many female/female "couples" put on the kiss cam to the pleasure of the crowd, an whomever is operating the camera then. The "opposing players" are put on the kiss cam as a means of making fun of them...there is no other reason they would do that, and you can not sit here and justify any positive from that. I have seen a total of male/male FANS once on the video board and that was a jump in of someone sitting behind a male/female "couple."

Errr...I'm not arguing here and I'm not talking trash so please don't make judments on me just because I might just have made a comment that may have "irked" you and many others - male/male.

My seats were close to the Platty bench. Emery did not yell at the refs on either call. Rather her was screaming at his players who were the extra attacker. One of them he reamed into #7 as soon as it was called, and #7 knew it (apologies for not knowing his name).

What will make a probable third and possible fourth game with you guys is that is you guys will learn to count to 6 by them (I keed I keed!) :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Let's hope they don't learn to count to 3, as in 3 goals against a good team:p

No I'm not disputing it really, its just normally called when the puck is near the players getting on the ice. When the puck is all the way across the ice the players jumping on and off the ice have really no affect on the play. How many time do you see a player jump over the boards prior to the other player getting over the boards when the play is away from the bench. Having said that you could see the reff really watching the changes after that first call. I could see if all 6 players were in the attacking zone, but it was called within a split second of the players hitting the ice (from my vantage point) thats why I was wondering if we had the video yet.
 
Re: Oswego vs Plattsburgh "The Whiteout game"

That's usually the case when a guy iscoming off and the player enteringthe play touches the puck while the guy he's replacing is still on the ice.

If you have two players jump in and attempt to enter the play with only one coming off, then one of them doesn't have to touch the puck for it to be a penalty. Otherwise you could run two guys out there, pass it to whichever one ends up open, and havethe other one peel back to the bench.

Yes I know the rule, but you've seen it several times where more than one person jumps off the bench when the puck is on the other side of the ice heading up, and one does an "oh $$$$" and jumps back onto the bench. If the players are not involved in the play its normally not called. As I said, I was screened by the glass and Plattsburgh players, but from I could tell both players were on the ice for a split second. It's not as if the extra player was driving to the net or attempting to play the puck. Had that been the case (and maybe is hense the reason I was asking) then yes a penalty is warranted.

#7: Luke Moodie - Oswego

Take you're pick!

Pretty typical of how Dan Murphy works a game though. He's wildly inconsistent.
