Unbelievable. The NCHC tournament was just a smoke screen to come to Minneapolis, get drunk, and have some fake b00bies rubbed in his face. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he didn't even take in a game...

Bus is still used by some of us 'common folk' who can't afford a $750-$1000 last-second flight booking to the hub of Cincinnati...how is the shrimp and lobster up in first class?

Wichita State lost to Kentucky...Iowa State was wearing home whites (3 seed) against the Tar Heels (6 seed) so that's an "upset" in reputation only...

Lack of interest? I still hope the every game's a home game rule applies in Cincy!

Check with Wilbur or sprig...they're local yokels...

$4,500 on lap dances?

Great hit by James Neal against Detroit's Luke Glendening the other night, too. Cross-check to the face...OUCH! http://nesncom.files...gif?w=500&h=276

Damn Edmonton's home blue and orange jerseys are a thing of beauty out there on the ice...

I just assumed that the "90" in your moniker meant that you graduated from UND in 1990. I guess I was wrong - you're ACTUALLY 90! Very cool! Get on the bus!

YaneA sent me a text regarding that score. I didn't believe it. Sounds like Clarkson had a heckofa team. Kinda like the east when it comes to men's hockey, nobody seems to think women play hockey anywhere east of Madison. Good for Clarkson! Interesting note to online article linked below - the last two Gopher title teams have murals in Ridder Arena - one wearing maroon jerseys, the other wearing yellow jerseys. The Gopher women decided to wear white in the '14 championship game so that they could have a third mural done in the third different jersey. I don't know...sounds a bit cocky to me... http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_25404769/gophers-womens-hockey-stunned-by-clarkson-ncaa-title

LOL!

Nice!

I suppose that's a possibility...after all, Ben Holden had no idea who the Penrose Cup was being awarded to.

Yea I thought his Hobey pick was quite stunning...no way Gaudreau isn't the winner.

Typical NCAA...Louisville and Kentucky meeting in Sweet 16...think that would ever happen to Duke and North Carolina?

D WP, check your PM's please.

Niagara had upset New Hampshire in the semi-final game...quite a shock at the time. Other regional team from Mariucci to move on to the Frozen Four was Boston College.

Both. See my post above. '99 was blown third period lead against Denver in title game followed by loss to BC at regional in Madison...'00 was upset win over MacNaughton Cup winner Wisconsin followed by win over Niagara at regional at Mariucci...

You must be referring to '99 or '00...the '97 tournament was at the old St Paul Civic Center and '98 was in Milwaukee at The Bradley Center.

Now THAT'S a review, Snake, not gfhockey's Minneapolis strip club review.

If MSU and Michigan are both playing beyond Thursday, attendance will be better than this year.

Did I say they should be overlooked? No I did not. But the comparison is only valid if you're comparing 04 Holy Cross to 14 Robert Morris.

99% of your pluses have ZERO to do with actual hockey...

Spot-on. Tony Quesada and the bulk of that 2006 team had the experience of being in the tournament in 2004. How can anyone forget Tony puking his guts out during the game? They did indeed play North Dakota tough...and I think the experience in 2004 most certainly helped the Crusaders in 2006. If Robert Morris beats Minnesota, it'll make 2006 Holy Cross look like chump change.

Starman's "Yale-like team" that could come from out of nowhere to win the whole thing? North Dakota. He ultimately picked Union College as his national championship game winner.
