The Fighting Sioux raced to a 3-0 lead with goals by Darcy Zajac, Mario Lamoureux, David Toews before they gave up two untimely goals by Ryan Lasch and Tony Mosey of the SCSU Huskies. David Toews padded his point total by scoring his second goal of the game in the third period to seal the game for the Fighting Sioux.
For the Sioux I thought that Ben Blood had a break out performance and one of his best games offensively in a Fighting Sioux uniform. If Blood keeps playing like this he will be wearing a Senators uniform very soon. Also, David Toews was nothing short of amazing tonight his two goals were high light material.
Home Sweet Ralph
The Ralph Engelstad Arena. has become a tough place for opponents to play in as UND has not lost in 17 games dating back to last season when the Fighting Sioux started the streak against the game SCSU Huskies.
No room for CFB's in hockey
I am sick and tired of watching players check their opponent head first into the boards. Someone is going to get hurt and possibly maimed if players can’t respect their opponents. The rules are cut and dried and pretty black and white, if an opposition player has their back is turned and they are facing away from you; they cannot be checked. There is no discussion.
Checking from Behind – A check from behind is a check delivered on a player who is not aware of the impending hit, therefore unable to protect or defend himself, and contact is made on the back part of the body.Tonight we watched a bush league checking from behind play that could land UND’s top defenseman Chay Genoway on the injury list. Aaron Marvin's checking from behind on Chay Genoway was blatant, unnecessary, uncalled for and Marvin needs to be suspended for another game or two.
Edit: I just went back and watched the bush league Marvin hit five times. This is one of the dirtiest checking from behind hits I have seen for some time. Genoway took the puck up ice in an end to end rush. Genoway had the puck checked off his stick by number 3 Sam Zabkowicz and Marvin came in and pounded Chay's head into the boards with a high elbow to the back of Genoway's head. This was a dirty blatant inexcusable hit. If this hack gets to play tomorrow night the Sioux players need to answer this gutless act. I can't believe that Husky coach Bob Motzko had the gall to argue about this call with the ref on the players bench.

End of Game
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a brutal hit and there is no way Marvin can step on the ice tonight. I will be shocked if that happens. I say he needs to miss at least 2 more series and tonights game for that hit. It was brutal to hear the sound.
ReplyDeleteGoon...why do you have to bring up the unbeaten streak? You realize that you just set us up to lose tonight?
ReplyDeleteYou never know what Motzko was arguing about, if they got the call wrong it could be he was saying it was Marvin, not Hepp... But I doubt it!!!
ReplyDeleteSt. Cloud gets away with more than any other team.
Squash 'em tonight, Sioux. I don't even like UND but I HATE St. Cloud! And CedarBrewSioux better be wrong about jinxing!
The hit was bad and I'm sure that a 1 game DQ will be done. Doubtful that anything more than that will be done, as I think the league has pretty much been sticking to 1 game.
ReplyDeleteWhile this hit was bad, I can tell you that Smith's CFB on Irwin was worse and he only got a game. I think part of this hit being a problem is the size difference between Marvin and Genoway. Sometimes the players need to think about that when they go in on smaller guys. I know Kilburg was always getting nailed on that, especially when we played smaller teams, and finally had to avoid the little guys.
Obviously RWD hasn't been paying attention to her Maroon and Gold hacks on the ice. UMD and WI are the cheapest and dirtiest teams I've watched play this year...and it's not like I've only watched them against the Mavs. Several channels in Kato carry WI and UMD games when the Mavs are on the road.
While our refs sucked last night, at least I was happy that CC was playing clean, as well as the Mavs.
Also, I wouldn't talk to much shit on Marvin or Heather will hunt you down Goon! Keep in mind that she has the Marvin game worn throw back from last year:)
If I were the other coach I'd have argued it as well. I'd be saying that you didn't call it right away so you shouldn't be calling it.
ReplyDelete"The Goon" has no effect on the outcome of the game. Although Cedar tried blaming me for the game last night if the Sioux had lost.
