YDM! (You da man!)

Folks were wondering why SEA wasn't doing like VGK did at their expansion draft and collect picks like seashells on the beach. Seems SEA was just biding their time. They have 32 picks over the next three drafts (normal is 21). They have FOUR second rounders in the 2022 draft right now. https://www.capfriendly.com/teams/kraken

For MAF I heard CHI was asking somewhere between "arm" and "leg" plus one more "favorite appendage".

Aren't we all?

@jimdahl is this happening this year?

Leaving this here in case the NCAA populates it right at 5:30 Central (instead of waiting to end of selection show). https://www.ncaa.com/brackets/icehockey-men/d1/2022?utm_campaign=inline-superpage

Bid sites must hold 5000. Many USHL rinks don’t. Fargo, Sioux Falls, Green Bay do. Not sure on others that do.
-
The committee worries about “flights”. So why select three regional sites that are within 300 miles of each other when the fly/drive cutoff is 500 miles?

The simplest bracket is straight chalk. The only conflict is UND/SCSU. You swap SCSU and UMass. You look at that and see … Mankato/Harvard and UND/UMass and say Worcester because of two MA teams. You quietly ask Michigan “Albany or Allentown” and WMU gets the other. Presto. Done.

If it’s not this we’ll need a drinking game for all the rationalizations they’ll use.
-
… and the league signed a three year extension …
-
No on-campus sites, but we’ll jiggle the bracket integrity for attendance. <- NCAA logic
-
More so coaches complaining about the 1 having to play at 7 Friday and 5 Saturday, or the like. Now there’s an off day. Great for teams, bad for fans.
-
It’s because people complained about short notice travel and the expense of having to buy a three game pass. They made it better by giving less travel notice/planning time and adding an extra regional hotel day as an added expense. <- NCAA logic Changes this year: going Thu/Sat and Fri/Sun (not Fri/Sat and Sat/Sun); moved selection show time 8 hours later;

Worcester, Albany, Allentown … its about the same as having the regionals in Fargo, Minot, and Dickinson. Not kidding. Look up distances for yourself.
-
Expect more NCHC bleeding as teams are eliminated. UND had its monster roster turnover a year ago. The rest of the league comes due soon.
-
I see Mankato/Harvard and UND/UMass in Worcester Massachusetts.

Television link?

Would a hearty Go Beavs be inappropriate?

Took the trophy, hats, beers, and told them to get on the ice. Clown show.

What kind of clown show is Lucia running?

Ask Michigan Tech maybe?
