Now we just need the No Dak hicks to lose; and all will be right with the world!

Both CHN and USCHO missed the most important part of this game, which is that the officiating was terrible. I don’t just mean the ridiculous no-check rules they called. I think the worst moment was when Tim Miller beat an Air Force defenseman down the left wing, and then couldn’t go to the net because the ref was in the way.

Also, I like Frank Serratore a lot, but someone needed to call him on his postgame assertions that they kept Michigan to the outside and prevented rebounds. Michigan was able to walk into the slot off the boards almost at will, and the reason they only had two shots on rebounds is because they missed an open net three times and had a puck bounce over a stick once.
