Originally posted by FadeToBlack&Gold View PostBecause it's turning into a joke league whose worst teams recruit thugs like Mayer and Salunier who target skill players with hits intended to injure?
Is Mayer a “thug?” Prior to that hit last night, he only had one other major penalty in 109 games at the college level.
Six strides in the 1 1/2 seconds the Tech player had the puck, and none from the time he entered the video frame? It was a big hit. He got the penalty he deserved.Last edited by davyd83; 01-27-2018, 06:28 PM."The use of common sense and logic will not be tolerated and may result in fine and/or suspension."- Western Professional Hockey League By-laws. 1999-2000.

"Just asking questions", are you?
You are so dense sometimes, it's maddening. The SPHL is a glorified wrestling league - you know it, but as a former SPHL media guy, you have to defend it; especially when a Tech fan criticizes it. Weren't you the guy who haughtily suggested John Scott belonged in the SPHL, or the late UHL?
Look again - as Mayer enters the frame he's already hauling arse like a freight train, so there were presumably multiple strides out of the frame, and there is clearly one stride in the frame before the hit.

Wrong. That's a garbage hit no matter who delivers it. That you defend it, says a lot about you, unfortunately."The use of common sense and logic will not be tolerated and may result in fine and/or suspension."- Western Professional Hockey League By-laws. 1999-2000.

Meanwhile a Tech player crushes a Ferris player's head into the boards with nary a glance from the officials. If anything's a joke on this league, it's the officiating.Last edited by bueller; 01-27-2018, 08:41 PM.This space for sale.

I thought the guy was planning that hit from 40 ft away. He lined up the poor guy from way out, knocked him flat and then he celebrated afterwards. That's why I said it was the worst in a long time.
Second, the refereeing was atrocious, in both games we played. They let too much go early, and called penalties on things that were questionable later on to try to get things under control. . Then things got out of hand.MTU: Three time NCAA champions.

Originally posted by bueller View PostHonestly, it was pretty well officiated game until the end of the second period. Then, it was just too much crap around both nets. Ferris was the better team, but not by much. They made the most of their chances. Tech's goalie was fighting the puck most of the night.
I agree but I thought the refs missed a LOT early in the game. Guys repeatedly interfered with no call. Guys taken down, no call. I thought it was not well officiated at any point.Ferris ran multiple pick plays no call. I got tired of shouting at the TV.MTU: Three time NCAA champions.
