This seems to be a reoccuring theme in the WCHA this season and it seems to be involving the same on ice officials.

The WCHA has officially admitted error by its officiating crew in disallowing a Wisconsin goal that would have tied Friday's game against Denver as time expired.
It marks the second time this year that the WCHA has apologized for an error by its officials — and both times the referee was Randy Schmidt.
The next statement the WCHA should issue is Randy Schmidt has been relieved from his reffing duties in the WCHA and will no longer be allowed to ref games in the WCHA ever again. The WCHA should not and can no longer tolerate this kind of incompetence by its on the ice officials.
The league could have made this right, the proper response should have been to have a 5 minute period of overtime before this evenings game. I think short of firing Schmidt that is the only way they could saved face in this incident. While I don't blame DU, hey they got the win they do have two tainted wins.
Derp.
ReplyDeleteLet's demote Mick McGeough and let him ref WCHA. I've got a few things to say to that guy about the messes he's created for the Oil. Marco Hunt sucks balls too. He had no control over the Goofer game. What a bunch of clowns
