Tech goal that was waved off.

[1:10 mark of video] With about 4 seconds remaining in the second period of Tuesday's game between MTU and NMU, it appeared that Michigan Tech forward Tanner Kero had scored a legitimate goal for the Michigan Tech Huskies... After further review by the CCHA officials, the goal by was waved off.

The ruling on the ice, the officials decided that Kero had interfered with the Northern Michigan goalie Jared Coreau. In looking at this video, I disagree, I this is a bad call. In my opinion, there is no reason this goal wasn't counted, albeit the video wasn't very good, I see no reason this was a goal on the score sheet.

In watching this video a dozen times, I don't see the goalie interference and if anything the goalie took a blatant dive. There is no reason that goalie should be flopping on the ice, in my opinion.  If the MTU forward touched the goaltender Coreau it was very minimal and not worthy of goalie interference, that's going hard to the net. I think that Mel Pearson has every right to be upset with this call.

Dash Cam Video: Hockey Player DUI dressed as Teletubby

Check out this video of Grand Rapids Griffin and Detroit Red Wing Riley Sheahan's drunk driving arrest from the dashcame of a Grand Rapids Michigan Police Crusier. I was surprised that the female cop patted Sheahan down when there was a male officer standing right there.

GWG by Mark MacMilian

Danny Kristo described what he saw on the game winning goal.

“Just a chip in,” Kristo said. “Just kind of read the play to the Duluth “D” – rimmed it – beat the guy to the puck and luckily beat the guy off of the wall. Originally, looked shot then I saw Mark [MacMilan] out of the corner of my eye and he was opened up for a one-timer so just tried to make a good pass and it went through and he buried it.

From the new INCH blog, Gladdy says...

• Of course, one of the games we dialed up was the Friday night contest between North Dakota and Minnesota Duluth. I encourage the readers to take advantage of your opportunities to watch Danny Kristo play hockey. He’s one of the best offensive talents I’ve seen in my years of closely following college hockey. I consider some of Kristo’s attributes as a combination of the players involved in the great Hobey debate of 2008. His anticipation to make plays and to be in the right places on the ice matches Michigan’s Kevin Porter. Kristo’s skill, excitement, and big-game contributions compare favorably to Boston College’s Nathan Gerbe. Even Jess Myers would buy a ticket to watch Kristo play.

Jacob Trouba destroys NMU's Reed Secke

[click to view video] Ouch!!! Check out this hit by Michigan Defenseman Jacob Trouba as he absolutely destroyed Northern Michigan’s sophomore Reed Secke with a monster hit. Trouba was given a five minute major and a game misconduct and the CCHA gave Trouba an extra game suspension. Secke was cleared by the NMU medical staff but you can tell by the picture that Secke was absolutely lit up.

Winter Classic to be cancelled

Michael Russo, beat writer for the Star Tribune also said on tweeter today the Winter Classic is dead. Russo is one of the most in tuned beat writers for an NHL team and if he says that the Winter Classic is going to get cancelled, I will believe that it’s true as well.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP)--- A person familiar with the situation tells The Associated Press that the NHL has cancelled the 2013 Winter Classic at Michigan Stadium.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity Friday because the league had not yet announced the cancellation of its signature event. The person also the NHL will schedule its next Winter Classic at the iconic stadium that seats more than 100,000 people.

Last week, the NHL wiped out all of its previously scheduled games through the end of November.

Detroit and Toronto, two of the league's Original Six teams, were going to play outdoors on Jan. 1 at the stadium known as the Big House. The league was hoping the matchup would break the world record for hockey attendance. Michigan and Michigan State's hockey teams drew a record 104,173 fans in 2010.

 Nice to see that the NHL is finally becoming the No Hockey League... One has to wonder if and when will the two sides finally put their differences aside and come to an agreement so we can have an NHL season. It's obvious that the NHL Owners are trying to get the NHLPA to crack and I don't see it happening this time around.

WCHA Power Rankings (10/21/12)

Here is this week’s, the WCHA Power Rankings. This season, I will be doing the WCHA Power Rankings for Inside Hockey with Taylor Seibel who is a contributor of College Hockey Weekly.

1.  Minnesota Gophers – (3-1-0, WCHA 1-1-0) – This past weekend, the Minnesota Gophers split their weekend series with Michigan Tech (2-5 L – 3-2 W) in Houghton, Michigan.  This weekend, the Gophers have an exhibition game with the US National Development Under 18 team on Friday night.

2. Denver University – (2-0-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Pioneers beat nonconference foes University of Mass-Lowell and Air Force Academy (5-1 W – 5-2) at Magness Arena. This weekend, the Pioneers entertain Michigan Tech in WCHA action.

3. University of North Dakota – (1-1-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, UND traveled to Fairbanks Alaska to play in the Brice Alaska Goal Rush Tourney, where they won their first game against of the tourney against the UAA Seawolves 5-0 W, then lost in the championship game against the UA Nanooks 1-2 L. This weekend, the Green and White entertain UAA Seawolves in WCHA action.

4. Colorado College – (3-1-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Tigers spit their weekend nonconference games. In their first game, the Tigers beat Atlantic Hockey foe Air Force Academy 6-2, the following night the Tigers lost to Hockey East Foe University of Mass-Lowell 1-3.  This weekend, the Tigers travel to Ithaca, New York to play nonconference foe Cornell University of the ECAC.

5. Minnesota Duluth – (2-2-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, UMD Bulldogs split their weekend series with CCHA foe Notre Dame at the new Compton Family Ice Arena in South Bend Indiana (3-1 W – 1-4 L). This weekend, the Bull Dogs entertain the Wisconsin Badgers in WCHA action.

6. Michigan Tech – (2-2-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Huskies split their weekend series against the high flying Minnesota Gophers (5-2 W – 2-3 L) at the John J. MacInnes Student Ice Arena. This weekend, the Huskies travel to Denver to play the Pioneers in WCHA action.

7. Nebraska Omaha – (2-2-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Red Mavericks split their weekend series with the Northern Michigan Wildcats (5-2 – 1-2 L) in Omaha, Nebraska. This weekend, the Mavericks stay home to host the Bemidji State Beavers in WCHA action.

8. Saint Cloud State – (2-2-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Huskies swept the Alabama Huntsville Chargers (8-3 W – 4-0W) at the National Hockey Center.  This weekend, the Huskies entertain the Minnesota State Mavericks in WCHA action.

9. Wisconsin – (0-2-0, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Badgers were idle. This weekend, the Badgers travel to Duluth to play the University of Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs in a crucial WCHA series at Amsoil Arena.

10. Minnesota State Mankato – (2-0-2, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Purple Mavericks beat and tied the Rensselaer Engineers (3-3 T – 4-3 W O.T.) at the Verizon Wireless Center, in Mankato, Minnesota. This weekend, the Mavericks travel to Saint Cloud to play the Huskies
11. Bemidji State – (1-1-0, WCHA) – This past weekend, the Beavers split their weekend series with the Lakers of Lake Superior State University (0-2 L – 5-0 W). This weekend, the Beavers travel to Nebraska, Omaha to play the UNO Mavericks.

12. Alaska Anchorage – (2-1-1, WCHA 0-0-0) – This past weekend, the Seawolves Traveled to the Brice Alaska Goal Rush Tourney, where the Seawolves lost to UND 0-5 L and beat Merrimack College 6-3. This weekend, the Seawolves travel to Grand Forks to play UND in WCHA action.

Here is Taylor Seibel’s power rankings for the WCHA.

1. Minnesota – (3-1-0, 1-1-0 WCHA) – Despite nearly getting swept in Houghton, Minnesota stays at #1 on my list.  Michigan Tech is a very strong team that should get plenty of victories over top teams this season.  However, Minnesota will have to fix some of their defensive miscues if they want to keep the top spot.  Up next for the Gophers is Canisius on Sunday.  
                                             
2. North Dakota – (1-1-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – North Dakota played very well in a 5-0 victory on Friday.  Then on Saturday, UND laid an egg.  Now, certainly there are plenty of excuses that could be used to explain the loss, but at the end of the day a top team should win that game.  UND will have a chance to get back on track next weekend as they open up WCHA play against Anchorage.

 3. Denver – (2-0-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – Denver looked shaky coming into the season, but put everything together this weekend, as they beat Lowell 5-1 on Friday and followed that up with a 5-2 victory over Air Force.  Denver begins WCHA play next weekend as they host Michigan Tech in what should be a great early season contest.

 4. Michigan Tech – (2-2-0, 1-1-0 WCHA) – The Huskies move up to #4 for me after a very impressive weekend.  Tech split a series with the consensus #1 team in the country, and they dominated stretches of the weekend.  Tech could have very well swept the series if not for some impressive goaltending by Minnesota’s Adam Wilcox.  Michigan Tech travels to Denver this weekend.

5. SCSU – (2-2-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – St. Cloud was able to handle Alabama Huntsville this past weekend getting the sweep.  The Huskies’ defense shut down the Chargers in getting the shutout, and they will have to keep that up if they wish to compete for the MacNaughton Cup this season.  SCSU hosts Minnesota State Mankato this weekend in WCHA play.

 6. Wisconsin – (0-2-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – The Badgers did not play this weekend, but they received some decent news that star Freshman Nic Kerdiles’ suspension would be reduced to 10 games (as opposed to the whole season).  We’ll see if Kerdiles still decides to stay at Wisconsin, but hopefully he can provide a boost for the Badgers.  Wisconsin travels to Duluth to take on the Bulldogs this weekend in WCHA play.

 7. Minnesota Duluth – (2-2-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – Duluth traveled to South Bend and split a Thursday-Friday series with the Irish.  Duluth has shown flashes of brilliance that could very well land them in the top half of my rankings sooner than later.  Duluth hosts Wisconsin in WCHA play next weekend.

 8. Colorado College – (3-1-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – The Tigers beat local rival Air Force on Friday before falling to Doug Carr and the Massachusetts Lowell Riverhawks on Saturday.  Lowell is a very strong team, so nothing to get too worked up about down in the Springs.  CC continues their non-conference schedule next weekend, as they travel to Cornell.

 9. Nebraska Omaha – (2-2-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – Another weekend, another split for the Mavericks.  This time, UNO split a series against Northern Michigan.  Early on, UNO has been very inconsistent, scoring 10 goals in their 2 wins, but only 3 in their 2 losses.  Next weekend, UNO will look to cure those inconsistencies as they host Bemidji State.

 10. Minnesota State – (2-0-2, 0-0-0 WCHA) – The Mavericks proved that they continue to be the cardiac kids, as they came back to tie and beat ECAC foe RPI this past weekend.  Mankato has the talent and coaching to make a significant rise up these rankings, and that could very well start next weekend as the Mavericks travel to St. Cloud to take on the Huskies.

11. Bemidji State – (1-1-0, 0-0-0 WCHA) – The Beavers met up with future WCHA foe Lake Superior State in Bemidji this weekend and managed to split, losing 2-0 on Friday before turning the tables and shutting out the Lakers 5-0 on Saturday.  The Beavers will need strong defensive performances like they had on Saturday if they wish to challenge for home ice this season.  Bemidji travels to Omaha next weekend to take on UNO.

 12. Alaska Anchorage – (2-1-1, 0-0-0 WCHA) – Anchorage was soundly defeated by North Dakota on Friday at the Alaska Goal Rush 5-0, but the Seawolves responded nicely with a 6-3 victory over Merrimack on Friday.  The Seawolves look to get some revenge next weekend as they travel to Grand Forks to take on North Dakota, this time in WCHA play.

Weekend Match-Ups (by Sioux 7)

We have our first official WCHA games this weekend with MTU hosting UM in Houghton.  We also really get cracking with the “official” start of the season, with a slew of non-conference and tournaments.  Maybe college hockey will gain a few more fans this season with the NHL still not playing games, with their lock-out.

On a completely different tangent, I would like to take this paragraph and say thanks to the Goon.  Last week he and I went out to the “hunting shack” (the “t” is silent in hunting by the way) bird hunting.  We shot some nice ducks and some humungous canadain geese.  It was relaxing time away from work and the big city (I think Fargo is getting big enough, ugh).  Thanks Goon!  (Thanks to Dakota Dog too, for retrieving all those birds.)

WCHA Games

#1 Minnesota @ Michigan Tech

Last weekend the Gophers stomped Michigan State by scores of 5-1 and 7-1 in Minneapolis and last Thursday, the 11^th, the Huskies lost their opener to Upper Peninsula rival Northern Michigan, 4-2, in Marquette.

Now that both teams have gotten legitimate games under their belts, the first game jitters should be out of the way.  These games also are the first of the last WCHA season (well the WCHA as it currently is).   Last December these teams played one series in Minneapolis with the Huskies winning the opener 3-2 in OT and the Gophers winning the closer 6-2.  This time it’s Tech has the home ice, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Huskies give Minnesota all the can handle, with second year coach Pearson’s leading the pack.  Gophers 3-pts.

Non Conference Games

#13 Minnesota-Duluth @ #9 Notre Dame (Thurs/Fri)

Last weekend the Bulldogs split with Ohio State in Duluth with UMD winning the opener 6-2 and the Buckeyes getting even on Saturday winning 3-2.  Notre Dame beat Maine 1-0 and then beat Nebraska-Omaha 3-2 in the IceBreaker in Kansas City.

Since this season is still in its infancy, I’m not sure what to expect with the rankings teams have, but it the pollsters are close, this should be a heckuva match-up.  I’m going to call it a split.

#19 Colorado College @ Air Force (Fri)

Last weekend the Tigers swept Clarkson in Colorado Springs by identical 5-4 scores and Air Force tied Alaska and Alaska-Anchorage by identical scores of 3-3 in the Kendall Hockey Classic in Anchorage.

This game is literally across town affair.  Even though it is non-conference, it’s always nice to win and have bragging rights around town.  Tigers Win.

#10 Massachusetts-Lowell @ #7 Denver (Fri)

Last weekend the River Hawks tied Vermont 1-1 in Lowell and the Pioneers were off last weekend.

With the Pioneers only having one “unofficial” game under their belt, I’m not sure how this one will play out.  But you know me; I got to go with the WCHA while I can, Pioneers Win.

#10 Massachusetts-Lowell @ #19 Colorado College (Sat)

After playing the Pioneers on Friday, the River Hawks travel down the road an hour or so to play the Tigers.  I’m going with the higher ranked team in this match-up, River Hawks Win.

Air Force @ #7 Denver (Sat)

I’m going with the Pioneers in this match-up; DU has just too much depth for the Falcons to match them.  DU Wins

Rensselaer @ Minnesota State

Last weekend the Engineers beat and tied Ferris State, 3-1 and 2-2, and the Mavericks beat and tied the UAH Chargers, with scores of 4-1 and 2-2 in Huntsville.

I don’t much about the Engineers, other than I like their name J, so just going with that I’m going to say a SPLIT is on tap for this series.

Alabama-Huntsville @ St. Could St. 

Last weekend the Chargers lost and tied the Minnesota State Mavericks and the Huskies were swept by the New Hampshire Wildcats in Durham.

Last season the Chargers managed to get 2 wins all season and 1 tie, losing all the rest.  I’m not sure things are going to fair any better this year for the boys down south.  Huskies Sweep

#17 Northern Michigan @ Nebraska-Omaha

Last weekend the Wildcats swept the Wisconsin Badgers in Marquette by scores of 2-1 and 4-2 and the UNO Mavericks beat Army 5-1 and lost to Notre Dame 3-2 in the IceBreaker in Kansas City.

Those of you that are old enough remember the days when NMU was in the WCHA, and UNO didn’t have a D1 program.  The Mavericks will no doubt want to bounce back after losing the championship game last weekend.  This means trying to take out their frustration this weekend on the visiting Wildcats.  I think they will get a win, but not two, SPLIT.

Alaska Gold Rush Tournament (Fairbanks, Alaska)

#2 North Dakota vs Alaska-Anchorage (Fri)

Last weekend NoDak beat the US U-18 team 6-4 in Grand Forks and the Seawolves beat Canisius 2-0 and tied Air Force 3-3 in the Kendall Hockey Classic in Anchorage.

This will be the first of three games between these teams in a two weekend span, this one is non-conference game, and next weekend they play a pair of WCHA games in Grand Forks.  It is early and the flight up North is a long one, but in the end, NoDak has just too talent for the Seawolves.  NoDak Wins

Merrimack vs Alaska (Fri)

I’ll take the home team, Nanooks win.

#2 North Dakota vs Alaska (Sat)

Last weekend the Nanooks tied Air Force 3-3 and lost to Canisius 3-1 in the Kendall Hockey Classic in Anchorage.

The Nanooks (I like their jersey’s) will have the home crowd advantage.  It will give them some inspiration, but that doesn’t win games, goals do.  NoDak Wins

Merrimack vs Alaska-Anchorage (Sat)

Last weekend the Warriors lost to fellow Hockey East foe Northeastern 4-2.

The Seawolves will not be heading south (not but once, maybe twice, a year I can say that) empty this weekend, Seawolves Win

Updated College Hockey Television Schedule

CBS Sports I.D. From 1990 (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Orginally posted at the Hockey Writers - Combine

One of the themes I have been hitting on this fall is – College Hockey can fill the void left by the NHL Lockout – there is a very good chance that there will not be any NHL Hockey this season.

From every thing that I have read - it doesn't appear that the two sides aren't very close to solving their differences nor do they seem to be in any hurry to settle the labor dispute.

Keep hope alive - the two sides are meeting but that's about it.

From the average fans perspective, it doesn't appear that the two sides are making very much progress. 

According to TSN's Bob McKenzie, the NHL is close to announcing that they're going to cancel some regular season games on the schedule - that announcement could come in the very  near future.

I have posted television schedules for college hockey in couple of previous posts and today I got my hands on the updated national television college hockey schedule. If my math is correct, there are going to be over 125 college hockey games to choose from this season.

Starting this Saturday, you will be able to watch a Division I college hockey exhibition game between the University of North Dakota and University of Manitoba Bison on Fox College Sports.

You can check your local listing but FCS is on the following DirecTV channels 617, 623, 626. As of right now, Dish Network does not include Fox College Sports. Games with a (C) are also available in Canada.

The 32 game National College Hockey Schedule - CBS sport announced 18 game schedule

CBS Sports Network (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

As the Lockout enters the tenth day with no end in sight – hockey fans have been given even more options to fill the void left by theNHL lockout.

Earlier, I posted a 24 game college hockey schedule for NBC Sports Network. Today, CBS Sports Network announced their 18 game schedule and starting on Thursday November 15, 2012 with a game between Notre Dame and Michigan in Ann Arbor Michigan.

I took the liberty of combining the two schedules and now between the CBS Sports Network and NBC Sports Network schedules hockey fans have 32 game national college hockey schedule that hockey fans can choose from. You can check your local cable companies listings for what channel these sports networks are on. For those fans that have DirecTV, NBCSN is on channel 603 and CBSSN is on channel 613.
