Brown beat Cornell 7-3 at Lynah tonight. The game was close for two
periods, but Cornell wilted in the third. They must have been pretty tired
after last night's spirited effort against Harvard.
There was one instance of the "Who comes out of the box first?" rule
that caused some discussion among the referees: Cornell took a penalty, then
Brown took a penalty, then Cornell took another penalty (all minors) and
Brown scored on the ensuing 4-on-3. The *most recently penalized* Cornell
player came out of the box at that point; he had caused the power play even
though he wasn't the player who "originally made Cornell short-handed."
I.e., everything got re-set when the Brown penalty evened things up.
Somebody raised the question: do *both* referees have to lose sight
of the puck in order for there to be a lose-sight-of-puck play stoppage?
My tentative answer is that when the puck is in one team's zone, one of the
referees is an "acting linesman," while the other one is responsible for
losing sight of the puck (or not doing so). Is there something written down
to that effect?
