hey I already called it gophs 7-2 earlier this week. however, I do truly think this is what it will end up being. all this talk about anyone beating anyone this tournament is hogwash when it comes to this game. this as as close to a gimmee as their is. and I will be looking forward to that beer Goon will owe me after this one.
we don't need an X factor in goal, we just need someone who will play solid and not give up the soft goal. I say whoever starts tomorrow if they give up a softie-yank 'em.
in my wildest dreams I just can see yale beating minnesota. I think they can keep it close and maybe lose 4-3 or something like that but they won't beat minnesota.
sounds like mankato and st. cloud shared a plane as well, cost saving moves by the ncaa? guess that explains putting more than one wcha team in a bracket-they can share planes. except for und and minny.
unless you are BCS type school any move to FBS would be silly. playing for a trip to the bic pen bowl in billings, montana versus playing for an actual championship-should be no debate.
that just confirms there are no cupcakes, the last four weeks, miami, duluth st cloud and western michigan. better have our big boy pants on come february.
an interesting stat about this regional is that all four teams are coming into it with a loss in their last game. none of the other three regionals can say the same. let's create the momentum and let it carry us to pittsburgh.
and andy murray is a great ambassador for college hockey, para phrasing here "if he would have come into my office and told me I want to come back for my fourth year I would have told him no". typical nhl guy.
I'd be absolutely shocked if anyone other than OD is on the top line come friday. although I would like to see:
markmac-knight-kristo
rowney-parks-rocco
od-mitchmac-gaarder
pattyn-st. clair-drake.
it is for attendence purposes. they must think that msum is going to bring a hoard of people to toledo versus providence and are banking on those 3 extra people union brings in providence.
