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.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

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.

I only saw the replay posted by CJ fogler, which was the live feed, but the contact I saw from both UMass players didn't look like it should take him down and the second guy didn't make contact until he was already falling. Anybody have any more clear replays?
 
The shittiest thing about the Gophers debacle is that I wanted to see what Alex Bump would bring against his home team and now we don't.


Can't wait til refs are replaced entirely by AI - surely coming within the next 40 yrs, if not sooner - so tired of their ticky tack calls and non-calls NHL and NCAA effecting outcomes anymore.

As someone who routinely works with AI to generate a secondary income from my main job, I can definitely wait. AI is certainly flawed when it comes to interpretation.

Do you worry at all about AI models feeding themselves more and more data over time as it outputs more and more into the web? I've seen that happen to some once-awesome data aggregating websites, and now they are useful, but also output a lot of slop.

This is why the human filter needs to be maintained. AI can do a lot, but it still comes out as a rough draft for a lot nonlinear of things.

I don't doubt that but I see AI having a major role in upper level leagues in the near future. Offsides for sure should be implemented, just implant a tiny tracking device in pucks. I've seen so many sketchy offsides calls in NCAA and NHL is mind boggling.

Ehh, I’m not super worried about that. I’m more worried about human over reliance on AI for every little thing.

You're not worried that one leads to the other? I can certainly envision a future in which people don't filter the AI in any way, and just release the unfiltered AI output into the wild, causing the AI to find its own work and reprocess it. I think it would take a lot of mass-laziness, but humans are fairly lazy in a lot of regards.

I see it more for determining if the puck crossed the goal line when it can’t be seen, but what sucks for hockey is that it is not like football where the ball just needs to reach the line for a score. It has to completely cross the line.

It’s probably a future issue. I’m just not worried about it currently. There will hopefully be coding that can work around issues like that.

We seriously should just scoop up Devine, Davis and Carle this summer. Can't hurt to have known, certified winners in the system.
