That was a great game!

Second that. That's what I call playing with intensity. Not so much the score (which was terrific), rather the effort, energy, and attention to detail. I recall one play where someone took it off and it almost cost the team a goal. One play in 60 minutes. If they bring that effort to Union good things will happen.

LGR...

could anyone else see the HUGE grin on Ray's face as he stepped into the box?

Isn't J Devin just serving the second penalty for Barlow (so someone can come out of the box)?

As was said later in the thread, Anne was correct. They actually sent Barlow to the locker room since it was 2 min. to go and he had 4 min. in penalties. As much as I think Barlow hasn't played up to potential, I'm happy he did what he did. The penalty by Gaudet was vicious. Barlow saw it and just came and took him out. I don't think we should have been penalized more than they were however.

The crowd was great, on Stephens and Johnson all night. The students had Johnson and I heard a lot of townies after Stephens. Hopefully Stephens will learn to clean it up, otherwise he'll be in a lot of trouble in future years.

Hooray Townies for giving the Dartmouth bench so much crap after the Gaudet hit on Davenport that Arthur had to page security to hurry over to the M/N aisle.

This had to be one of the worst officiated games I've seen. In addition to the called off icings in the first period, Murphy was very inconsistent. It went both ways, but mainly favored Dartmouth. The most blatant missed call on us was when Brendon Nash just took down one of their players by climbing over his back along the boards. I had to yell "Murphy sucks" on that one it was so blatant. I still can't figure out the icings in the first period.

Another great idea for a TBRW table would be the number of times, "This had to be one of the worst officiated games I've ever seen!" was uttered per game/season. You could also see how that correlates with winning/losing seasons, strength of officiating, etc.

Seriously though, I feel like I hear this a lot, especially this year (which I guess proves my point).

Yeah, I know, why couldn't I put everything in one post. However I need to post two more points. First, this weekend shows why it's so important to have senior leadership. Sawada really stepped it up on offense, although defense suffered yesterday. Five goal weekend, and he's certainly not an offensive power. If our underclassmen can pick it up as upperclassmen we can have some good years coming up.

Second, I know Ari doesn't like the line matchups that Schafer goes for, but Fontas' line has been great. No goals by their first line and Johnson and Wyman have 35 and 30 points this season. They far outdistance anyone else on their team. They are a big reason why we win.

The funny thing about that particular incident is that Murphy watched it happen and waved it off. Officiating was horrible both ways; it was only a matter of time before someone got hurt. Hopefully Taylor is alright.

Seconded. I really enjoy just watching them work. They do, also, generate some scoring chances, which is remarkable considering that their job is to shut down the other team's top line.

Union isn't top-heavy the way Dartmouth was. I would be surprised if Mike changed any of the lines, since they all worked well this weekend (with the Sawada and Fontas lines off the charts), but that will change the checking line's usage. It's a good thing, too, since we don't have last change.

I think arthur was calling security to protect himself.. not dartmouth.
