Sorry, I had to.

Didn't think of that. Thanks, Jericho.

Hey, that's why I'm here, to make lousy jokes. I do that on the air as well.

Great day for RPI hockey. Wins over Cornell and Union to start conference play for women's and men's teams. Sweet.

There were a lot of things to be pleasantly surprised about in this game.

Perhaps one of the most pleasant is the fact that RPI managed to make it through a very chippy third period without anybody getting called for the type of penalty that would have resulted in a suspension.

Hopefully they don't hand one out after the fact.

We made it past 300 posts.

Do us a favor-when you start the scores thread for tomorrow, make it RPI @ Union and try to make the same mistake as today.

That crossed my mind, but remember that I wrote November for the Michigan game in the D-I forum and we still lost.

Meaningless call at the end makes the scoresheet imbalance of penalty calls a bit less obvious.

Chip McDonald is a disgrace. How does the league keep putting this guy on RPI vs. Union?

Of the last 7 games between RPI & Union, Chip has officiated 5 of them (over 70%. Of those 5, here's the power play breakdown.

11/15/2013: 5 PPs for Union, 4 for RPI
11/16/2013: 9 PPs for Union, 6 for RPI
1/25/2014: 5 PPs for Union, 3 for RPI
1/25/2015: 7 PPs for Union, 1 for RPI
10/30/2015: 9 PPs for Union, 4 for RPI

That's 7 PPs on average for Union and 3.6 for RPI...almost 2:1.

It's particularly offensive on a night like tonight where RPI outshot and outplayed Union.

We better not get this guy again tomorrow night...

Ah. But you should have perhaps written Minnesota.

And that is just the power plays listed. I would bet the minutes of penalty time is even more telling.
