Can't tell you about b) or c), but I know a) isn't true, as John
Malinosky refereed a Cornell game at Lynah Rink a couple of months
ago (sorry, don't remember which one and don't have my records here
so I can't look it up), and actually did one of the better officiating
jobs we've seen this year. A lot better than Tim MacConaghy did last
night at the Cornell-BC game, which BC won, 5-4. Cornell fell behind
3-0 early in the second period, rallied to tie the game at 3-3,
then the teams traded goals before BC's David Franzosa got the game
winner midway through the third period. David Emma had two goals for
BC. Ryan Hughes scored all of Cornell's goals. The key to the game
was the power play (fueled by some of MacConaghy's strange calls and
some stupid Cornell penalties). BC converted 3 of 6 chances.
