MADISON, Wis. – The men’s Western Collegiate Hockey Association today announced a onegame suspension to University of Minnesota hockey player Kyle Rau for his actions in the February 10 game vs the University of Denver.

Rau’s suspension was determined after a review of the incident under the WCHA’s
Supplementary Discipline Policy and Procedures. At the time of the incident, he was assessed a 5:00-major penalty for boarding and a 10:00-game misconduct.
Rau will be required to serve this one-game suspension in his team’s next regularly scheduled game on Saturday, February 11 vs the University of Denver.
– WCHA –


My take on the WCHA suspension - I applaud the WCHA for taking this action, lets hope that other players around the league take notice; but lets also hope that these types of hits will no longer be tolerated. This was a dangerous play, Rau was late hitting Zucker and he was in a vulnerable position. These are the types of hits that need to be eliminated from Amateur hockey.

UMD Bulldog's Joe Basaraba was given a five minute major and a game misconduct for this hit on the Fighting Sioux's Nick Mattson. Some have said that this hit wasn't worthy of a five and a game but I am not so sure, it's a dangerous hit. Do you think the ref made the right call in this instance?

This is the best that I have seen UND Fighting Sioux hockey team play all season long. True to form they're already seem to be in play off mode. They don't have a lot of room for error but they will be in the tourney if they keep winning games.

The Fighting Sioux didn't give the Bulldogs a lot of great looks and this is how they have to continue to play like, if they want to be successful. It's starts in the defensive zone and it's about grinding out wins, they don't have the fire power to just skate past people but they do have a great back end.

That being said, I think everyone seems to be buying into their roles and the Fighting Sioux are becoming very hard team to play hockey against. That is a trade mark of a Dave Hakstol team. I like the fact that this is one of the more disciplined Fighting Sioux hockey teams that I have seen in some time.
