It's always the case with controversial calls that the team that is wronged will re-visit it afterwords if they lose and point that as the excuse. I won't do that. The Wolverines dominated that first OT with the number of chances they got...credit to Knapp on coming up big when he needed to.

The puck only came free from his pad when he turned his body. In the overhead replay you couldn't even see the puck until his body turned away from the goal line. That's when the Michigan player took the first poke to free the puck, then shot the puck in the net on the second attempt.

Not what I saw at all. I'll try to find a copy of the video. But it's all moot when Wisconsin hoists the trophy April 10.

It's not irrelevant, it's a measure of their excellence. Kind of the opposite of Kalamazoo Tech, which repeatedly loses two or three games in a row. Have they considered making hockey a club sport there? They probably should.

Yes, it is irrelevant. It would be relevant if this was the first round of the WCHA playoffs where as you know it is a best of 3 series. Nobody cares now if Wisky hasn't lost two in a row all season because all it takes is one.
Pull your head out of your fucking ass for once. Christ almighty.

You know I've been following college hockey for a long time (obviously not as long as you, grandpa) and I'm sure if it wasn't for you waving your wrinkled pin-dick around this board, I'm sure I'd never know Wisky was a traditional power. Of course we both remember when they were getting fucked on a regular basis in the 90s. I miss those days.

Wisconsin has won 6 NCAA titles; their 7th this year will tie them for second place all-time with two other WCHA teams. During the 1990s, the Badgers won three WCHA titles, and one NCAA title. Yeah, I guess that’s a down period for us.

You do realize most of Wisky's (and the WCHA's) national titles came during an era where the WCHA was recruiting overage professionals from Canada, right?

I never said there was a Big Ten hockey conference. It was a comment on the relative disparity between the upstarts from Rochester and Wisconsin, which offers more full rides for competitive douching than RIT does period.
Their own dime? Or maybe a bunch of rich kids on daddy's dime.
Whatever, they still made the Frozen Four without offering a single athletic scholarship. And they did so only a few years after going D1. Rack the motherfucking Tigers!

You never said there was a Big Ten hockey conference, you just called a WCHA team a Big Ten team. This why you’re the Rodney Dangerfield of T1B (minus the sense of humor). You never can say “yeah, I misspoke”, you always backpedal and spin.
Yeah, I’d expect RIT to be able to get some decent players there. Hockey is not a poor kid’s sport, and it’s getting more expensive as a youth sport all of the time. A lot of rich kid’s play hockey. So yeah, it’s not surprising that some of the rich kid hockey players might wind up paying their own way at RIT. Or Yale.
Of course, a lot of schools that don’t hand out D1 athletic scholarships do hand out scholarships based on financial need. I wonder how many RIT players are on such scholarships. That’s just a way around a rule that I believe is still in place that says if you aren’t D1 in all of your sports, you can’t hand out athletic scholarships.

Wisconsin is a Big 10 University.
http://www.bigten.org/schools/wisc/big1 ... -body.html
Note that Big 10 website has a feature article on a Wisconsin hockey player.
http://www.bigten.org/genrel/122909aaa.html
Now all know that Wisconsin is aligned with a bunch of no-name schools who also happen to play hockey because it is impossible to teach Iowans how to skate. That fact does not stop their coffers from being full thanks to their Big 10 affiliations in every other sport nor does it hamper their visibility during recruiting. They are a Big 10 University, and the more time you spend denying it, the stupider you look.
This why you’re the Rodney Dangerfield of T1B (minus the sense of humor). You never can say “yeah, I misspoke”, you always backpedal and spin.

Don't know or care. All I know is that this game is a no lose proposition for the Tigers. Lose, and that is just what they were expected to do. Win, and the Badgers will take their place right next to the 1980 Soviets and the 1983 Nebraska Cornhuskers.

Sorry, I misspoke. To clarify, RIT is Division III in all other sports and as such, could not offer athletic scholarships unless they moved all athletic programs to at least Division II. The point still stands that RIT could easily be offering non-athletic scholarships to their hockey players, assuming any of them actually needed the help.
Screwball, I've forgotten more about college hockey than you'll ever know. Which probably explains the above fuckup.
Brian, Wisconsin is a Big 10 university with a WCHA hockey team. You referred to them as a Big 10 team. But thanks for just reinforcing my point. Wisconsin's coffers are full because of their Big 10 affiliation, yes, but that has little to do with hockey, which is an INCOME sport for Wisconsin. It more than pays its own way.

Very true. I hear they draw 15,000 to the Kohl Center to see them play. And meanwhile RIT plays in front of 2,100 at tiny Ritter Ice Arena. Anything else you would like to offer to counter my point that Wisconsin is Goliath to RIT's David?

Shouldn’t that be Goliath vs Cinderella? Hopefully Goliath takes Cinderella’s glass slipper and stuffs it up her cunt.
All kidding aside, I don’t take RIT lightly. They haven’t beaten a ton of top notch competition, but since an 0-5 start, they are 28-6-1. They have a very hot goalie; they’ve given up 16 goals in their last 12 games. Interesting matchup going against one of the top scoring teams in the country.
They won their last 12 games, but against suspect competition. Yes, they beat Denver but Denver struggled down the stretch, and lost their last three games of the season. And RIT also beat a mediocre New Hampshire team. The rest of the wins were over the likes of Army, Air Force and Canisius.
On paper the game should not be close. But college hockey fans know that tournament hockey is less likely to follow to form than most other sports. Hopefully the Badgers take care of business and send the bandwagon RIT fans back to where they came from. Wisconsin-Miami could be an exceptional title game. I just wish we didn’t have to wait the extra week for it.

Here's a story for you, Gobbles: This coach played at Kalamazoo Tech.
JESENICE, Slovenia (AP) -- Six Slovenian ice hockey players who beat up their American coach after winning a league title were released by the team Thursday.
Mike Posma, a former American Hockey League player who took over as coach last year, was beaten up by his players Saturday following Acroni Jesenice's celebrations for winning the title. The 42-year-old New Jersey native was cut and bruised but not seriously injured.
The team denounced the incident Thursday and announced the end of the players' contracts. Club president Slavko Kanalec said the team was "shocked" and "strongly condemns" the incident.
The team said it also suspended further contract talks with Posma, who reportedly left Slovenia for the United States earlier Thursday.
Slovenian media say that both the six players and Posma were drunk while celebrating the team's third consecutive national league title.
The six players were reportedly angry at Posma because he allegedly told a 19-year-old backup goaltender to drive a car -- even though he knew the man was drunk. The goaltender subsequently crashed the car.
The six then turned on the coach, reportedly beating him with wooden traffic signs that they found by the side of the road.
Earlier this week, five of the six players denied that they attacked Posma, claiming they attempted to convince the coach to go to the police and take the blame for the goaltender's accident.
The Slovenian public and team's fans warmly welcomed Posma when he took over as coach last November. He had previously coached rival Olimpija Ljubljana.
On Friday, Acroni Jesenice beat Olimpija to win its eighth Slovenian league title since the country's independence in 1991. Olimpija has won 11.
Posma played defense for the Utica Devils in the 1990-91 AHL season and later spent several seasons playing professional hockey in Switzerland and Germany.
