If you watched the selection show, Starman was all about players, stats, who had good special teams etc. Bucci was all about "it's going to be a great jersey game" between LSSU and UMass. I mean he literally adds nothing. Melrose knows hockey but he sounds like spends about 10 minutes before the game reading over the players names and then just slaughters them during the action. College hockey needs more guys like Starman and Ben Holden. End of rant.

Right! Comcast sports package for me does not include ESPNU anymore...moved it up to the next tier package a few years ago. I mean why would you want to have a college sports station in the sports package?

Yeah, but it isn’t just this year...it’s every year. I liked it better when the games were carried by local Fox Sports affiliates...at least you had announcers who knew the teams. I’m not sure why ESPN carries these games; just to bury them on channels that a lot of people don’t have. (ESPNU, ESPN News)

Wow! Massey really going out on a limb picking 5 of 8 games with a 3-2 score, two with 3-1 score, and one with a 4-2 score.

I guess it's only fair since UND had Chay Genoway for about 8 years.

Seemed like the Shore's that played for DU were all there for 6-7 years.

I think AIC is going to be a solid team. This is a good opening round opponent for UND, especially for getting some of our injured players back in the mix. They dominated their competition and won the regular season as well as the playoff title. The Sioux should be able to take control of the game with their depth and explosiveness but they cannot just show up and think theyre going to win. #StCloud

Hey! This isn't easy!

Always thought they picked the wrong defenseman from Nashville in that deal...should've taken Shea Weber.

Cheese and beer?

He'd look good in Sioux green!

What kind of amateur hour bullsh#t is this? Oh, right, this is an NCAA event.

Don’t think so...US International was based out of San Diego IIRC.

Mankato is the Purple Cows.

The guy just can’t help himself.

We’ll see if ‘little brother’ (Omaha) can play as tough against Minny as they try against UND.

Mankato squeezes the life out of the Q first round. Will not be an easy matchup for Minny/Omaha.

So you’re saying there’s a chance...

As long as he’s not doing the Fargo regional, I’m fine.

But the Badgers have Hobey favorite Cole Caulfield...

If you get ESPN you should have access to ESPN3

THIS^^^^

How in the hell do people have Mankato coming to the Fargo regional? They've been a #1 seed throughout almost the entire season; if they did drop enough to be a 2 wouldn't they be the highest banded 2? The highest 2 should not be in the same bracket as the overall #1...am I crazy here?

Rand Pecknold insists that it’s his team’s culture that earned them the auto-bid.

David Carle on line 1 for you...
