OT: 2024 25 NCAA Hockey Thread

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Horrific loss. I knew right when the goalie fiasco thing occured they were f***Ed. The most under productive program in college hockey history

Maybe UM should hire Sandelin at least he knows how to win a few of these things with a bunch of MN boys 🙄

The refs followed the rule book on that situation. ESPN doesn’t know the rules.
I've seen goalies be given time before. The entire season was on the line.


Also, Airey didn't even stretch. It was just weird all the way around. The hockey gods wanted the Gophers to lose 😆

He was gone for like 5-10 “real” minutes. That’s way too much time.

Usually they get like 30 seconds to stretch. Not sure what happened with why Airey didn’t.
 
Love the tourney but I have to gripe about scheduling BC-Bentley in the afternoon and Providence-Denver / UConn-Quinnipiac against each other. One of these games is likely to be an unwatchable blowout and the other two should be good.

Well at least the Gophers choked again

It's Motzko. He choked repeatedly at SCSU and lost multiple times against teams that his teams had no business losing to. Ferris State, Air Force, American International, Clarkson, etc

You absolutely have to find a way to win when up 3-1 going into the 3rd. Gophers still my 2nd favorite team. Go Dawgs and screw you Howard for leaving.
 
Chelsey went down like he got shot when the UMass players stick touched his. That wasn't a trip
I was trying to figure out what happened. The UMass stick hit the top of his skate just enough that the toe part of the blade caught the ice and pulled his feet out from under him. Not sure how that stands in the rule book.

Stick made contact with his skate( I think it got in between the ice and skate blade), and Chesley went down as a result. Pretty clear trip, to me. Looked like one when I saw it in real time, and also on the replay. I get the ref not wanting to call things in OT and influencing the game, but in this case, MASS went down on the transition and scored while Chesley was spinning along the ice towards the opposing Blue line, putting MN down a defender.

As i said earlier, the ref had to be cringing inside when UMass scored. I'm sure he thought that nothing would come from the non call, and that he had done the right thing by swallowing the whistle, and not putting the Gophers on the PP.

Go ahead and provide some proof. I’ll wait.
