I think u'll find Lomberg's suspension came from the play where he laid out the Merrimack player just inside our blue line in the second period. (He got a penalty for interference on the play). I don't think his suspension had anything to do with his "bump" of Marotta. 
That was a pathetic bit of acting. If anything he may have hurt himself when he flopped to the ice. If not he was doing his best to look "groggy" as he skated off.

I saw this "arguably best goalie" against umass a couple weeks ago and umass's mastalerz in that game made many far better saves...  Witt was very beatable high glove side, iirc.  
Granted nu's defense  was standing around that game.

And for my money, providence has an even better goalie than Witt 

All that said... Did anyone else think they saw Lemberg chop down on Marorra's collarbone after the "dive"?

So much for the embellishment call on Marotta.  You'll never get a referee to admit he calls what he thinks sees, not what happened.  Embellishment is a call better left uncalled IMHO.

The rest of the story is that Ryan's absence Friday at Matthews Arena will be significant.  Arguably, NU has the best goalie in the country and a  number of dangerous forwards.   Maine will have to be better in all areas than the MC series to have a chance to win.  Changing lines may make us better in the playoffs, but will make this series very tough.
