und used to be the team you didn't want to play at the final five. now they are turning into the team you want to play at the frozen faceoff. miami is looking like the team you don't want to play at the frozen faceoff.

I know but he still should have laid longer. he must not have taken too many acting classes.

the husky player should have laid on the ice longer.

I'm sure they will send the gophers to fargo to try and boost attendance

so in the brief history of this nchc thing. the penrose cup champions are a combined winless at the frozen faceoff. who wants to win this thing next year.

not in the first round.

my money would be on BU.

I'm using chn and I get if everything stays the same with the current results. und vs providence and tech vs minny in fargo.

3-2 minny

hak's teams have won 3 regular season conference championships. 2009 they went 0-2 at final five 2011 won final five 2015 went 0-2 at frozen faceoff. not a good trend.

they would be number 12 overall

minnesota would be three seed and would probably be there as well with duluth. und v mich, duluth v minny

I think it is set in stone that the way it will fall if michigan wins, they will be in fargo as the 4 seed. could be outside chance bc ends up there as well.

that yale team didn't have too many problems finding the back of the net during the tourney. hopefully und can do the same.

hopefully history isn't repeating itself. flashback 2009. und clinches the cup on fri night on the road, next night lose while giving up 2 shorthanded goals. same this season. then sweep the last place team with two uninspiring wins in the first round. same this season. lose on fri at conference championship tourney. same this season. in meaningless third place game go up 1-0 on wisconsin, badgers score 4 unanswered and win 4-1 this season, go up 1-0 in meaningless third place game, pioneers score 5 unanswered . the debacle in manchester followed a week later. final result still to be determined this season.

if this game really mattered, he's playing.

doesn't matter. if you are going to win the big one, you have to beat four teams regardless of who they are. chances are msum wins tonight anyways so whatever und does doesn't matter. und made it's bed yesterday in one 30 second span late in the first period.

goes to show this game is meaningless along with murphy playing. good god can they just agree to call it a tie and go home.

this will spark a whole new level of arrows and daggers being thrown, but these conference tournaments really don't mean much unless you are a team that absolutely needs the wins to get in like UND did last year or SCSU this year. after all there are no banners raised for the conference tourney.

tomorrow's game is game between two teams who don't give shift. have the dance teams play each for all that matters. too bad it's not in the bylaws that if this game is utterly meaningless for making the tournament both teams can opt out.

hell they could up playing michigan next weekend with minny and miami as the other regional semifinal in one hell of a region of death.

if that is the case, then shame on und's staff for not being able to make the proper in game adjustments.

well I am glad in choosing to play the early game they will get enough rest for the meaningless third place game tomorrow.

I'm not ready to bury minny just yet.

SCSU can't lose 2 this weekend as that would give them a losing record and be inelegible for an at large bid. a loss and a tie at worst.
