Cornell 5 RPI 0

[Big Red Colonel]

I hope that many of our penalties are from scrappiness and toughness, but we simply can't succeed in March by taking 11 penalties against a team like BC or Minny.

Gotta be thrilled with a shutout and a 5 goal game however.  Can't wait for next week!

It definitely was incorrect and the goal was legit because none of the players stopped.  The linesman originally skated out from the boards as if we were offsides but they decided we weren't and had the faceoff at center ice.  Poor call.

Just read the USCHO board http://board.uscho.com/showthread.php?t=45246&page=5&pp=20 about there being a special situation with goalies on a delayed call where it's not a too many men on the ice call but a stoppage...a new rule for me?  It would make sense having the faceoff in the center circle...I took the center circle faceoff as an admission of mistake by the refs...man, I'm not doing well tonight.

From the NCAA Rule Book (which is a couple years old, but I'm guessing this rule hasn't changed).

"A goalkeeper may be changed for another player at any time under the
conditions of this section. When a goalkeeper leaves the goal area and proceeds
to the players’ bench for the purpose of substituting another player,
an on-ice official shall be responsible for seeing that the substitution is not
illegal because of the premature departure of the substitute from the bench
(before the goalkeeper is at the players’ bench and out of the play). If the
substitution is made prematurely, an on-ice official shall stop the play
immediately by blowing the whistle unless the nonoffending team has
possession of the puck, in which event the stoppage shall be delayed until
the puck changes hands. A time penalty shall not be assessed against the
team making the premature substitution.

FACE-OFFâ€"Center face-off spot. When play has stopped with the puck
in the offending team’s defending half of the ice, the faceoff
shall take place at the point of the stoppage of play."
