UW vs. SCSU: Final Five Semifinal: Buck 'Em if they Can't Take a Joke

Re: UW vs. SCSU: Final Five Semifinal: Buck 'Em if they Can't Take a Joke

So the BADger goalie throws his stick to prevent a goal and gets away with it? Nice officiating.

I'm not saying the two directly off-set, but you can see my previous post about what I honestly thought about the non-stick-throw, and the badgers are owed a call from McCabe's "slash" earlier in the game. I understand why the slashing rules include hitting an opponent's stick, but that was most likely simply dropped to draw a call. Hopefully the bad officiating goes both ways.

They just said on the radio that the thrown stick play was not reviewable by rule. They said that 5 officials in the box all agreed on that. Then Shepherd evidently skated over and said "Yep, it's reviewable."

Can you imagine if he had screwed that up on this stage? The guy is a joke.

Who'd be surprised tho?

Honestly, if the replay had shown a clear throw, I'd be more bothered by "properly" getting the call wrong (meaning no review) than I would be by "improperly" getting it right.

You can't have a ref making things up as he goes. I get your point, but we have a bad history with shep and this would have been the ripper. The guys a clown.
