NC game

[DeltaOne81]

Wisconsin leads 2-1 with 7:30 to go... scoring a PP goal after killing a few BC powerplays

[Trotsky]

Wisco has dominated the game, BC doesn't even belong on the same ice.

[DeltaOne81]

BC takes a stupid penalty with about 3:30 left

[DeltaOne81]

but BC kills it with a lot of great effort

I agree Wisco looks much better, but BCs playing their hearts out right now too

[DeltaOne81]

Wisconsin wins it!

[Jordan 04]

wow.  BC hitting the post at the end.

[DeltaOne81]

A BC shot with ~1.5 seconds left went off the post. Wisc may have been better tonight, but BC was awfully close. Quite a game.

That last post hit would make me cry if I were a BC fan/player.  A cm to the left, it would have gone in.  Half a cm, it would have bounced enough towards the center to bounce off Elliott's back and go in.  As far as sports go, I don't think tough breaks get much tougher than that.

well having a goal that was a true goal not called a goal is tougher. wow, that was an interesting sentence

Not having ever played at any level higher than intramural, I can't say from experience.  But I'd think that if a true goal were called off, at least part of your emotions would be diverted to frustration and anger at the ref, and you could also rationalize with "well we really won, scoreboard be damned."  A near-hit like this, you have nothing to blame but God/luck/the-butterfly-who-flapped-his-wing-in-China, and I'd think all your emotions would be focused in on the miss and loss itself.  I dunno if I said that right, but you know what I mean?

Didn't make it to the lazy boy.  I was standing and sitting cross legged on the floor.  Only sad that we weren't there to root another red team on.

Should have been 5.  But then I said that about Thursday night and got chewed out by some linesman I met in the elevator.  Apparently we're in the officals' hotel.

BTW, did Piotrowski ref the final?  We heard the ref yelling "MOVE IT!  NO WHISTLE!" from the upper deck and assumed it was a CCHA guy.
