a thought just came to my mind... Do you think that since the teams, tonka and hill, were that good of teams that it makes it easier for the officials to swallow their whistle? IMO yes it does...but what are your thoughts? I think taking this into consideration could be why Southern MN has a problem...

As a current Ref, and now former High School Player from the region of SW MN I can vouch for the inconsitency. We are a more "northern" southern team and often have the officials come to our home ice from the Suburban Officials Association..They do a great job calling the game both ways an...

This is just embarassing...There is no excuse for that kind of hockey. Honestly, I would be ashamed to be apart of that team (Virginia), yes you may be a great hockey team, but there is no excuse for beating a team 22-0.

Section Prelims? Feb 23

Does anyone know what the cut off is for the teams who have to play a game Feb. 23rd? Or does it vary from section to section.


(ex. seeds 6 and above do not play prelim game on 23...seeds 7 and below do play..)

Thanks

Coaches Interaction in OFF-Season

Can anyone give me specifics...

I guess I just get the feeling that it is not truly a neutral site because of what town it is in. I dont see how you can realistically say any Rochester team does not have an advantage there. The only thing neutral about it is the ice and rink specs, and thats where it stops. No Lakeville or New Pr...

Does anyone agree with me when i would say that Rochester, no matter what rink it is at, is the farthest from a neutral site for sections 1a and 1aa teams to play at? I say this because of the NP vs Lourdes game. I was down there to watch it and couldn't help but notice all the Lourdes signs all ove...

I definitely dont see that happening considering NP beat AL 7-3? i think that was the score, and they beat Lourdes 4-3 in OT, when Lourdes was actually playing at the top of their game.

I don't see how you can say the game was close. NP dominated Albert Lea. Who cares if they were garbage goals? The Albert Lea goalie should have stopped them, controlled the rebound, or covered the puck. Or their D men should have cleared it. NP clearly played better hockey, not to mention that at l...

They are not on the market yet, 34 +2, it will be a while before they are on the market, depends on how long you will wait. They are in pretty good condition, the only thing thats wrong with them is the ...

"And by no means, from what I hear, the officials calls didn't decide the game." You are correct, Nip, no spelling errors, but it is certainly an interesting sentence. Sorry Ms. Bitchonastick, I will be sure to never start another sentence with "And" ever again. Now, what is the...

Nippen, I hope you are a good official, because you are not very good at spelling, grammar or putting together an intelligent sentence. Bruce, acutally, Hemingway DID try out for the Fargo team. He would have been one of 3 goalies and decided to stay in school, you are close, but again, incorrect. ...

Another thing, Obviously 2 people cannot be everywhere at once or see everything at once. That is one of the "downfalls" of being an official. You can be perfectly positioned and be doing exactly what you are supposed to be doing and miss a call because of an obstruction of view. It happens.
