NCHC Playoff Preview: UND vs. Colorado College Discuss. Dave

Yep, yep. North Dakota is currently at 6th in the Pairwise, but, according to the CHN Probability Matrix, still has a 19% chance of earning one of the NCAA tournament's four #1 regional seeds (11% chance at #3 overall; 8% chance of #4 overall). It is far more likely that UND will be a #2 regional seed somewhere; here is the rundown... #5 overall: 17% #6 overall: 29% #7 overall: 18% #8 overall: 12% That leaves slightly less than a 4% chance that North Dakota is a #3 regional seed (either #9 or #10 overall). The numbers won't add up to 100% due to rounding. Of course, the higher the PWR ranking on Saturday, March 19th, the better the matchups, and, of course, the top two seeds in each regional get last line change in the regional semifinals, with the highest seed remaining earning last change in the regional final.

Will UND be able to catch Denver and hoist the program's fifth Penrose Cup? Is home ice for the playoffs a more reasonable goal? Is home ice for the playoffs a lock at this point? All of those questions and more answered in my latest article... Down The Home Stretch: Who Will Win the 2022 Penrose Cup? Discuss. Dave
