GREEN BAY, Wisc. -- Cornell hockey coach Mike Schafer called the fastest timeout of his 22-year coaching career on Friday night. It was also the most effective. Ninety-three seconds into the first period of a Midwest Regional semifinal at the Resch Center, Michigan had already scored two goals on its first two shifts. Schafer called a timeout so the team could regain its composure and help slow the momentum of Michigan's offense. He got more than he bargained for as the referees -- who were ready to drop the puck before the timeout -- reviewed and eventually disallowed Lynch's goal. Had play resumed, the goal would not have been reviewable. Lynch would get his goal back fifty-four minutes later, with just 4:01 left in regulation to force overtime, but it was a different game by then and the goal would only delay the heartbreak. Cornell's Rodger Craig scored 3:35 into overtime to beat No. 1 seed Michigan, 3-2, and end the Wolverines' season. |
