Re: RPI @Clarkson - Game Two 3/7/15
Age has mellowed both of us. But there was a time I did have to pull her back from going after Mike Noeth at HFH as he left the ice. I really do not ask much from the officials. Just call it consistently and use equal judgement for both teams. I always figure they are doing a great job when I do not even notice they are on the ice. If we lose by playing poorly, then so be it. If we lose because the opponents played better than we did, that's fine. But when we lose because of a spurious call or a job poorly done by a linesman, that i have a problem with. This year has seen some highly questionable calls and I find it odd that in almost every game we have been called for more penalties than the opponent. Lack of discipline can account for some of it, but the numbers are just staggering.
Maybe you should buy some tickets in the front row, and if the refs get out of hand, have Jenny stand up and start waving that fiery Italian pointer finger at them....then they'll think twice![]()
