Last night I had a chance to look at the replay of the NMU-BU game and that 2nd period goal. Like the rest of you, I'm still not sure what to think. There is no doubt that the referee signaled a goal. But since he had a discussion with the linesmen, perhaps they somehow changed his mind. The colot (that's should be color) commentator, Wally Shaver, said that the referee had blown the whistle because he lost sight of the puck. If that had been the case we immediately should have seen the ref waving his hands signally the no-goal sign. There was also speculation that because the NMU player (can't remember his name) crashed into Bradley, anything after the collision should not be allowed. However, if you look carefully at the replay, the BU defender seemed to nonchalantly use his stick to trip up the NMU player which eventually sent him into the goalie. I'm not trying to condemn the BU defender--I'm just saying that's what it looked like on the replay. There was one more possibility--that the NMU player slapped the puck into the net with his hand just after he collided with the goalie. I could not tell from the replay if this was the case. There was no mention of this incident in the newspapers whatsoever. That surprised me. I guess we may never know. Dan Glumac University of Minnesota
