The Sicatoka

In the past they've used ESPN News to cover overlaps like that.

Agree. That single difference from what they did could have significantly helped attendance in South Bend (and saved HU a flight; UMTC was flying either way).

The 1 seeds are pretty simple: MSUM to South Bend, UND to Fargo, BU to Providence, Miami to Manchester. In the 4 seeds I see four eastern schools. About the only concern is do they keep Providence (not a host) in Providence, otherwise I expect "straight chalk" (1 v 16, 2 v 15, etc). In the 3 seeds I see two east, two west. My guess is they'll try to keep east east and west west for attendance and travel. Their problem is South Bend attendance with MSU-Mankato as the 1 there. They need a "name" -- Minnesota -- on the marquee there. That would put SCSU in Fargo. The 2 seeds I expect "chalk" also: 8 UNO to MSUM (which works for travel also); 7 MTU to Fargo; 6 Duluth to BU; 5 DU to Miami

You miscalculated Lakeville North's RPI again I bet.

CHN has 8 Harv 9 UNO; USCHO has 8 UNO 9 Harv. CHN has 13 QU 14 Yale ; USCHO has 13 Yale 14 QU

Interested to know how the right knee on 24 Minnesota feels about now after going into the boards hard late in the third against Michigan also.

No, Tech needs to come out fired up and wanting to hold onto that PWR4 slot, and UND needs to heed the immortal advice of Al Davis*. The rest is just minor details, because from here on out, Al's right ... and the hulls are in flames. * "Just win baby."

Getting that goal gave DU some confidence. Now it's 4-3 with 13:30 to go. Keep playing hard guys. Why not overtime. What the heck, why not a couple OTs.

Colgate 2 SLU 1 13:30 left in 2nd

This has to be about the tenth year of eligibility at MSU for McEachern. Seems like he's been there forever.

Off the MSU defender, PPG Michigan. 1-0 Ugly Buckets.

SLU and Colgate tied at 1.

Where'd you pick up that stat? You channeling Jim Dahl?

The AHA regular season champion's season is over 3:04 into OT. Mercyhurst 4 Robert Morris 3 F

If they had to give up 2 in 30 seconds at some point this season to learn the lesson from that, better now. (Too often it's been "lesson learning time" at a far worse time.) They played well, didn't seem to take any injuries, and have something to stew on for a while. Good.

Colgate --- (can't say 'red' anymore so you don't accidentally think it's Indian related) Raiders 1 St. Lawrence 0 16 left in first.

Mercyhurst ties AHA regular season champs RMU at 3 and they are headed to OT. Colgate and St. Lawrence about to drop it in Lake Placid.

ENG Lowell. 4-1 UML, under 90 seconds

"Paging Mr. Gaarder, Mr. Connor Gaarder ... "

BGSU takes bonehead penalty with Tech still up 4-2 and four to play.

Schlossman just tweeted line charts. No Prochno, no Kossila for SCSU.

You'd think a highly educated B1G person would know that if it's countable it's "fewer" as in "two fewer teams."

Do some Google searching on CBSSN and live stream ... not sayin', jus' sayin'.

It's the conference that dissolved after North Dakota became a hockey-only affiliate member of the B1G.

Glad you clarified. Thought it might be "Alcatraz Class of '61".
