What's the status of the two WMU forwards that didn't play at Target? That's going to be huge for WMU.

Looks like I know what's for lunch Thursday ...

He should've driven the cap of his right shin pad (full weight) into the spot he landed those two punches. Don't risk a hand or wrist when better tools for the job are available.

... depending which direction you are coming from ...

So ... Healey sets precedence that in-season/post-season play can cost you a couple NCAA games. Hmmmm.....

My Sweet 16 predictions: 8-8 My Elite 8 predictions: 3 gone already My bracket? Dead.

What stuns me is that the NCAA selection show yesterday showed the Pionk hit on a goaltender. Full speed; no change of path; lower the shoulder; aim and ram. And, so far, ... < crickets > ...

Dude ... 6 for 6 and the UMD/UND score.

Well, there are West Regional event banners going up on light poles on Veterans Boulevard (west of Scheels).

I'd hate for your drain plug to get wet. I'll bring that to you in the rink after I park your car.

Leave your keys with me. I'll park it for you a bit west of Scheels on 32nd, under the Sheyenne River bridge. Perfect spot for it.

There is one game. UND and BU. Nothing else matters. Jost lost last time he faced most of those guys. It's books balancing time.

Swapping two games from "chalk" (DU/MTU to Fargo, UMD/OSU to Cincy) gives an undeserved advantage to OSU, but it'll raise attendance by ... maybe 3?

Wodon's take is out. (I haven't read it yet either.) http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2017/03/19_Bracket-ABCs-Final-NCAA-Projection.php EDIT: Now that I've read it, Wodon's lost it this time.

OSU is all house money. They got in because UW had a terrible defensive breakdown in 2OT.

Showcase. < facepalm >

I expect a UMD/OSU match up Friday in Fargo with HEA/AHA officials. And I smile ...

Prov needed BC or UW to lose. OSU needed BC and UW to lose. Prov and OSU got some bounces tonight.

No, Fenton needs to apply supplementary discipline to a certain UMD defenseman for dropping a shoulder and running a goalie. To be the man you gotta be a man.

A defense of Ausmus, Wolanin, Shaw, Peski, and Colton Poolman just played UMD for 40 minutes to a draw (and probably should've won).

I'm using the PWR predictors at USCHO and CHN and getting UND at 10. That's what I believe.

Schlossman just tweeted:

Ugly question: Given the outcomes of the other conferences now known, would UND have gotten in without at least one win? Paging Mr. Dahl, Mr. Jim Dahl ...

I expect this. It's simple, clean, and no first round conference conflicts.
