The net was barely dislodged, maybe an inch off the ice. I thought they might call high stick on the shot.

My opinion was that the puck definitely went in, the net was definitely not dislodged, but I'm not sure you could conclusively say the stick wasn't high.  Of course that wasn't the rationale the official used, but I didn't see an angle were you could tell definitively whether the stick was too high or not, so in my opinion the call on the ice had to stand.  If it was called a goal on the ice, I would say that should stand too.  I also wouldn't be surprised if someone produces a still picture showing it wasn't high at some point, just saying I personally didn't see an angle where I could tell definitively.

Melrose has already called the Union goalie "Grossman" and said that Western Michigan was playing.

Who wants to sign the RPItv for NCAA tournament petition?

I think that this has to do with longitude.  If the game were a little further west, say on the eastern edge of Lake Erie then it would have been a high stick.::cuss::

Does anyone here know if Chelios had a game misconduct or a game disqualification?

I heard misconduct, so he'd be available to play tomorrow if Michigan State advances.

MSU just cut it to 2-1 with less than a minute in the 2nd -- right after Union blew a 3 on 0 break.
