How was the faceoff that led to that goal an offensive zone faceoff?

 

[huskymedic]

PP goal by Samu Salminen makes it 4-3 Merrimack.

UConn is going down to three men on an extremely similar play that Merrimack did not get penalized earlier.

Sigh… getting jobbed on home ice.

UConn absolutely hosed in this game officiating wise.

Benny and potvin have been HORRIBLE

EDIT: I was right in front of that lucas before the whistle and Kinal hit after the whistle. Absolute BS they called NOTHING after that, yet call 2 calls against UConn for absolutely nothing right after?

Ughhhhhhh. After 2
5-3 MC

The unforgivable part is they went to the monitor and still said no penalty.

Segree is in ?

I agree, clearly a penalty for the Lucas board before the whistle and kinal obvious major after the whistle

Woof.

ENG makes it 7-3.

Split the H/H against a decent River Hawk team (Even w/o the Officials assistance)

You’re not gonna win them all.

You mean warriors? River hawks was a couple weeks ago.

Northern mass. Close enough

 

[Bomber36]

That was some of the worst officiating I have ever seen.

Partial answer on Kinal hit:

 

[Sea Goat]

Prior to the goal two uncalled boarding penalties, one that should have been a 5 minute major, within the span of literally two seconds. How was not one of those called? How?

Potvin needs a dog from Fidelco or he just is inept. The problem with the "no call" is the frustration level sky rockets. It should have been a major and a game misconduct - a very dangerous hit. After such a "no call" it is hard to keep your composure. And we didn't! Cav might have used a time out then to cool everything down and explain that life ain't fair. He could have exhorted the boys to ignore Potvin and the other sight challenged bastard Benedetto...

Oh, well one ugly loss does not a season make.... Let's move on and get ready for BU.
