  1. Those are my seats for the F5 each year.
  2. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the final voting has already taken place. The voting takes place just a couple days after the regionals are completed, and then the Hobey Hattrick is announced (essentially just the top 3 vote getters). Then they just wait to announce the winner until the F4. Agreed on Atkinson though...kind of a dumb thing to announce already when it hasn't been officially released.
  3. According to Cam Atkinson's twitter (http://twitter.com/CamAtkinson13), he is one of the Hobey Hattrick, which will officially be announced on Thursday. So he will be the sole Eastern player...with the other two being Frattin and Miele. Frattin is the only player of those three still playing...and neither of the other two advanced past the 1st round. That has to increase his odds a bit.
  4. That's too familiar to the now infamous DU checklist from last year. Chambers and the DU blog had that checklist going pretty early in the year. Once they hit the F5 and beyond though...didn't work out so well for them.
  5. No doubt. If Gwoz agrees to let us wear black, I'm all for it!
  6. From Brad: Not sure if any opposing coach would agree to have UND wear the black at this point.
  7. The business suits are retired for the season at this point. The Sioux are the highest seed remaining in the tourney. So they are the home team from here on...
  8. Updates are going on right now in the NCAA thread...
  9. Omaha already up 1-0 on Michigan?
  10. I think Yale can give UMD a good game. I just think that UMD can take them, especially if the Connolly line has a good game. Definitely agreed though. UMD has by far the easiest road to the F4 of any WCHA team.
  11. WOW. Boatload of penalties. Doesn't Union have one of the best PP in the nation too? ECAC, of course, though.
  12. Nice work UMD! Keep it up!
  13. Any updates would be greatly appreciated. I'm stuck here at work.
  14. It doesn't matter for UMD though, since that line is on the ice every other shift anyway.
  15. Something tells me that DU will beat WMU. I would be very surprised to see DU exit in the 1st round for a third straight season... Especially with how well they played on Saturday against UND. I think a DU/UND rematch (should UND beat RPI, of course) would be a toss-up. I still think that UND hasn't played their best hockey yet against DU, and if they did they should be able to beat them. But anything is possible in a one and done.
  16. I got shafted.
  17. Western? You think DU will lose in the 1st round again?
  18. We can hope so. That would be great to see.
  19. No conspiracy. It's just maintaining bracket integrity. It's what many of the "experts" predicted last night. Can't think about BC yet, still two games to get through before that. Same for BC, they are in a tough regional as well.
  20. The only time Gopher teams play on the East coast is if they get shipped there for a NCAA game.
  21. I hate having to possibly play DU again in a week (don't want them to flip the tables on us like we did with MN a few years ago), but that's life. Can't overlook RPI like we did with Yale last year.
  22. Predicted bracket from USCHO: I'd hate to have to face DU again in a potential regional final matchup (they're a tough team and would be out looking for revenge for tonight), but these brackets would be doable. I think UMD could challenge Yale. The NE regional is a toss-up IMO. The West regional is the bracket of death. If BC wants to repeat, they would have their work cut out for them there.
  23. The only way we get shipped out to Manchester is if UNH is a #4 seed AND Merrimack gets the final #1 seed. The latter is the one that isn't as likely. Could still happen, but it looks like Miami has the best shot at the final #1 seed.
