Wiscy--aside from being the best women's team ever--just had that air of destiny about them this year like we did last year. No shame in losing to this team in OT.

Now pay that woman her money and build her her God damned barn.

Surprised they called that penalty shot. It only seemed like she covered it, rather than swiped it, on super slow motion.

No penalty?

They can only use replay to call a major penalty (either outright or an upgrade), they can’t call use replay to issue a minor penalty if it wasn’t called in live action.

They were using replay to decide if it was a major off the face-off.

Right, when you said “no penalty?” I thought you were looking for at least a minor.

yeah, while she did "cover it" with her glove, it seemed like she swiped it away in one motion. Hard to tell either way, because of the bodies. I'm not surprised it was called, but also I wouldn't have been surprised if it wasn't. Shame it didn't go our way. Hell of a play on the penalty shot, because the goalie had the play 98% of the time, otherwise.

 

[Thump]

Kudos also to the duo calling the game. The guy was especially good!
