This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Crawford was onside by at least two feet before scoring the game winning goal but yet again we were subjected to a goal review, one that took far too long. The OSU players must have gotten tired of waiting, but it was their own coach who asked for a review.

I didn't see anything out of the usual from Notre Dame during the game that would have given me reason to believe that OSU players had a gripe about their behavior. I did see one pretty egregious play by Carson Meyer though. He and Alex Steeves were going after a puck on the wall to Morris' right early in the third and Meyer took a pretty viscous slash at Steeves and got him on the wrist. After not seeing him on the ice for 4 or 5 minutes afterwards I feared he had broken his wrist, but thankfully Alex eventually returned.

Unfortunately for Meyer he looked like he sustained a pretty serious leg injury shortly after scoring the short-lived go-ahead goal in the third period. I can't imagine the OSU players thought there was anything wrong on that play, as he an an Irish skater just got tangled up along the wall.
