Couldn't tell you the last time I saw a 5 on 3 shorty.

Skarzynski from Ostertag and Boreen makes it 3-0. Minnesota looks both faster and stronger than SLU.Comment

It would help if the refs could come to a firm decision about what is and isn't a penalty.Originally posted by D2D View PostComment

Re: Minnesota Gophers 2018-2019
After giving up a power play goal, Knowles makes it 4-1 from Pannek and Schammel.
I'm not sure just how much better the D is playing today (obviously some, just based on the scoring), because the backchecking forwards are just swallowing the Saints whole. Which is a positive development in its own right.Comment

Re: Minnesota Gophers 2018-2019
The line calls are even more bizarre than the penalties. SLU just got called for icing on a play where Gulstene came out and played the puck.Comment

Re: Minnesota Gophers 2018-2019
Pannek nets another shortie to make it 5-1. Over the last two weeks, the Gophers are scoring far more goals on their opponents' power play than on their own.
Edit: The balance of play is indicated by the fact that I didn't even realize that Minnesota was short handed until I looked at the box score.Comment

So 5-1 after two. Pannek with the 5th goal after missing what looked like an open net.Minnesota Golden Gopher HockeyComment

Seems like breathing is a penalty on the Gophers. Man, St Lawrence looks like their skating with cement galoshes on...At the outset, we could hang with the dude...Comment

Re: Minnesota Gophers 2018-2019
I may stop praising a Gopher player's play. It seems when I do they have issues in their next game (see #13). Also, with less than a minute to go in the 2nd period there was another example of the defense getting too "cute" with the puck around their own goal, whew.

Re: Minnesota Gophers 2018-2019
I do feel for those who have to deal with HEA officiating on a regular basis. This game is not an outlier; they love to blow their whistles.Originally posted by TovarishchLisa View Post
It's not that what they call couldn't be interpreted as penalties. They just don't have any feel for the game, and their silly calls on things that wouldn't impact the flow of play, do end up having an impact because it totally tilts the ice. I've definitely seen worse games than this in terms of what they call.
On the plus side, the video coverage of today's game is very watchable. Fine work, UVM.

Pannek makes it 6-1. Skarzynski makes it 7-1.
At least SLU has that rouge.Comment
