Any thoughts on the West Fargo kid getting 1 game suspension (which he will have to serve in the fist game of the state tournament) after being tackled by the Firebird player.

At some point the refs need to keep in mind the score of the game and the motive behind what happened on the ice. You have to be able to protect yourself. Suspending the Packer player was not good. The Firebird player had nothing to lose as he was done for the season anyway.

I saw the game, the DL player did attack the West Fargo player but at some point the WF player needs to get away. Good call by the refs.


I agree with you^that he should be suspended. Yes, he got mauled by a big guy, but obviously Tendeland was opening his mouth to the DL kid earlier in the game and that DL kid wasn't going to take that...kids don't just take you out to that extent just cause your season is over.
