Yes it would since the WCHA officials disreguarded the rules that the NCAA
set forward at the beginning of the year. After calling the game really
close for the first few weeks of the season the WCHA officals disregarded
the rules and went back to calling the games the way they did last season.

"Chances are very good that you will not see WCHA refs at the Frozen  Four."



That's an interesting consideration, since this would be the one time it
would logically make sense to use refs from a conference that's competing.
Wouldn't having the teams compete in the style of play they're accustomed to
make more sense in this case than springing a different reffing style on
them at the crucial juncture?  There's certainly nothing unfair about using
refs from their own conference, unless the refs come with existing team
biases.
