During the last Michigan game, UoM was on the penalty kill when they iced
the puck, only the linesman called icing by mistake. The ensuing face-off
take place at center ice.
        Was it the refs discretionary decision as to where the
face-off would occur? Do all refs (admitted) mistakes result in a
face-off at center ice?
        It seems to me that the face off should have been at the UIC end
because that is where the puck would have been if there was no icing call.
