So in my home with a sick kid spare time play around with PWR I found that this weekend: -Omaha, enjoy St. Paul, then Sioux Falls. -UND needs to win Friday to get a #1. Even if Sparty wins Saturday, winning Friday locks it in. -Denver needs 2 wins to assure a 1. But if Michigan wins/any Maine loss they are still a 1 seed with a loss. You aren't Spartan fans at all, or black bears fans. -If you are CC, you don't want St. Cloud to win Friday night. And death to St. Lawrence, Dartmouth, and Cornell. If SCSU does they can't win Saturday and no other upsets. -If you are SCSU you need a win Friday. Saturday would be good too, but if you don't, you'd need Cornell to lose at some point. It's to your liking if Omaha doesn't win the NCHC, but if they do, Maine can save you by winning hockey east. -If you are Western Michigan, you really can't have St. Lawrence, UMass, and SCSU win their conference tournament. You are fans of North Dakota, BU, BC, Denver, and the Q. I'm sure I missed something.

Ciskie of all people posted this. That game was a gong show, with Duluth winning the game on a late 5x3 goal. Official Todd Anderson should have tossed Pionk and should have tossed Dominic Toninato for abuse of officials. First time in a non fight situation I've seen a linesman have to restrain a player, albeit a captain.

Agreed. I think they'll need a bridge splitting time goalie for next season while Hedquist gradually becomes the #1 guy.

Duran to start the year on the injured list with an oblique strain. Because why not.

Four emails about buying tickets for this weekend: -The NCHC -UND -The XCEL Energy Center -Ticket master Yup, time to move the event to campus sites.....sad, but it was a good run.

Omaha playing for their season for two weeks. After that loss Friday I had written them off, but as good teams do they found a way. I hope our guys can match their intensity on Friday. That was lacking the last time they played.

My guess for times on Friday: UNO vs. UND 4:30 SCSU vs. Denver 7:30

Hats off to Omaha. Backs against the wall and found their way to St. Paul.

Omaha! Alright! Good to see them get to St. Paul.

So what happens to CC in the PWR with an L tonight?

Look at Omaha go.

I think it was the right call, even without a great angle.

That's super close. Where is the puck at behind the CC player.

Not calling a major opens it up for more dumb stuff. SCSU just passing the puck around on a 5x3.

Slew foot on Western. That's a 5.

So now Western is firmly on the bubble after laying an egg tonight. Guess we will see how far they fall.

I think it's gonna be first to 5 or 6 in this game.

I'm surprised that SCSU has gone with the Freshman here again. Figured they'd go with Basse as an experienced guy.

I believe they are out now.

So in the current scenarios you've got to be 14th in the pairwise to get in with the Atlantic and the CCHA winner getting in. You've got to hope that BC and the Q take care of business against UMass and St. Lawrence in their tournaments to breathe a bit easier.

Hedquist good in the net for UND this weekend, but Latkozcy for Omaha has been the story in that series. Almost stole the first game when his team got outshot badly, and now has the Mavs on the brink of history. Teams playing for their lives tonight. Will make for good hockey.

If Ludvig takes off I'm fine with Hobie in the net. Like how calm he plays.

That's when you feel bad for Miami. That's a reflection of their last few years in the NCHC.

@MafiaMan reportedly in the building smoozing up to @Goon. Somebody get security.
