But why do we really need this chicken sh*t penalty? I should think a zebra could let a player know that if he does that again, he won't get the next call. I guess it boils down to valuing a zebra's pride and dignity as highly as an actual violation. I don't agree.<br /><br />Remember the scene in "League of their Own" where the very large babe is arguing a ball/strike call with a tiny little up. He tells her it might have been a strike yesterday, it might be a strike tomorrow, but today it's a ball.<br /><br />Andy Gambucci didn't need embellishment calls to keep players from flopping. He'd just skate away after a player got carved up like a Christmas goose, whistling a little tune. They usually got the message.old pionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-79160307843394697402012-02-18T10:45:05.500-07:002012-02-18T10:45:05.500-07:00Kinda irresponsible to suggest DU fans should go t...Kinda irresponsible to suggest DU fans should go to a BAR to watch the game, don't you think?old pionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-52762140357439835822012-02-18T10:20:48.312-07:002012-02-18T10:20:48.312-07:00Tonight the game will definitely be on DirecTV #66...Tonight the game will definitely be on DirecTV #669.

I didn't agree with the call. JZ skating fast out of the zone, he chips the puck up the ice and kinda awkwardly and off balance does a little jump to get around the guy..gets slightly bumped in air and falls over. Seemed like he honestly just lost his balance to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-2167355843477020532012-02-18T09:11:38.452-07:002012-02-18T09:11:38.452-07:00That's why Brittain is DU's #1 goalie.That's why Brittain is DU's #1 goalie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-27191430395131130482012-02-18T08:47:29.010-07:002012-02-18T08:47:29.010-07:00I agree.

Embellishment is when a player dives or uses another motion in an attempt to influence a call by the referee, tripping and hooking are the most common occurrences for embellishment. More than likely Zucker did not know the referee was going to make a call because he did not see him put his arm in the air. I know it is part of the game but one respect it is like showing the referee up..."hey stupid make the call" two things players should not do to a referee, drop an "F bomb" and dive all over the ice.

When the play stopped, their goalie shook his hand a couple times as if it hurt, looked at it, then looked over at their bench and waived their alternate goalie onto the ice. Before the trainer could get to him, they opened the boards and he went off the ice. He threw his blocker against the wall and was cussing. He obviously knew he was ufcKed up and he knew it right away. Doubt he'll play tomorrow.<br /><br />Hey ref - what's the NCAA Referee signal for Embelishment, anyway? The call against Zucker was bologna. How can you call embelishment and a trip? It's one or the other.

And we all know and subscribe to the cliche about how important it is to have a goalie with hot hand come tournament time. Besides, I'd guess Sammy's anxious to live up to his pre-season billing. And getting hot down the stretch would be a great way to do it.old pionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-89579988085515048402012-02-17T20:50:35.094-07:002012-02-17T20:50:35.094-07:00We have a fresh goaltender.

So much parity this year. It will be interesting to see the continued shifts in PWR as the season ends up and we get into tournaments.<br /><br />It's a pity the goalies collectively have only 2 shutouts- they've definitely been a strong point for the most part, and we were all thinking it was the biggest question mark in the preseason.Jordanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08476704730263267223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17196208.post-13350612077828028182012-02-17T20:35:25.540-07:002012-02-17T20:35:25.540-07:00DU up to tied for #6 in Pairwise immediately after...DU up to tied for #6 in Pairwise immediately after the game.
