Where is Esposito and Gotovets?

According to College Hockey News, Espo "had a setback in practice this week."

This is what I heard at the game Saturday:
Gotovets: ankle (stepped on a puck in practice)
Espo:  Shoulder ("setback" would lead one to think it's his ankle again. I think shoulder is a new problem).

[upprdeck]

did anyone actually watch the game to see the deal with the waived off goal?  sounded like the whistle blew way after the puck was in the net, it didnt look like the goalie had the puck so why would the whistle be blowing?  just wondered what it looked like on video?

So to sum up, Esposito either suffered a concussion against Colorado College, or had a "setback in practice" which could either be shoulder injury or an ankle injury, or, as one person (somewhat unfairly) speculated, there are off ice issues. Well, that makes the reason for his absence crystal clear.

Broadcast comment on the waved-off goal was that whistle blew so play should have stopped even though puck was still in play [presumably official lost sight of it] so no goal

I hate the goddamn intent rule.

He was hanging out around the ref locker room throughout the game with some other scratched players.  Wasn't limping and I doubt they'd be allowed to hang out with the team if they had "off ice" issues.  Gotovets wasn't there, maybe he had the sickness? Speculation is fun

Also, who was the 3rd string goalie on the bench without a name on his jersey?  Someone they pulled off the club team?

[LaJollaRed]

For those of us who weren't there, would anyone care to describe, in full, what happened during the handshakes?

I'm thrilled to be 3-0-1. Iles is putting up some good numbers.

But if the whistle blew then it wasn't intent. The play was dead.

Intent is when the ref tries to blow the whistle and he doesn't blow it. The play its dead in his mind before the toot.

Yes, but if the puck was in the net before the whistle blew (which it appeared to be), he had to have disallowed it on intent.

i thought he blew the whistle way after the play. it was after red light came on as well so did he "intent" it that far before it happened?  didnt see the replay was the goalie even covering the puck or trying to smother it?

Fortunately we have the definitive source for review.  No doubt that the HD Redcast archive will put the issue to rest.::rolleyes::

The Colgate announcer seemed to think it was a no-goal because Mihalek was pushed into the net.  Or, that the scrum pushed Mihalek into the puck into the net.  Or something like that.

Well, then the Colgate announcer didn't listen to Arthur, who relayed (from the ref) that the whistle had blown the play dead.
