I agree runaroundsioux, and would like to add that the "recipe" for a natty does not always include blu chippas. Although if scoring by committee comes up short it is easy to point at the missing piece..

So your hockey favorites are heavily influenced by religion, uff da.

Oh, I see where you are coming from, games and players, plays and incidents seem to blur and run together for me..

I have a significant difference between who I want to win and will be cheering for, not that I put on a skirt and pom poms, a fist pump and f'yeah is my peak. But I have Denver taking natty from UMD, Providence, and BU in the FF.

Thank you

I have memory issues but wasn't the UMD thugs more of last years player, Iafallo, that goalie running Dman, etc? Who is this years thug?

I think Motzko can be a turd, Monty has surpassed his turdines and Sandy seems to vying for a place at the bowl. Having an opposing coach that needs chirping is more fun for us fans. But I do think they can be good coaches, of the three turds mentioned, Bobbo is most deserving. Monty's comments to the press about his team did not sit well with me as I am of the opinion you don't call out people in the press (well maybe opponents and officials) and Sandy's dirty divers makes me wonder if the green has worn completely off....

very good list, can't really dispute any of your choices

That is a big part of my reasoning, highlight the "home ice" dilemma... I am an advocate (and my dog is my audience) for home ice for #1 seeds and maybe, just maybe a Providence "bs" natty again would poke the bear...

Since I brought up Garth Snow, I feel the need to clarify. Mr Snow (see Oksposo) has shown that if player development is not up to his standards, he may promote change. Note that a first rounder going to NHL is not what we have here, and I am of the opinion that UND's program is light years ahead of Lucia led gooferville. With that said, sitting that many games, especially at the end of season, on a team lacking scoring, has to have raised eyebrows in the Islanders organization. I don't know mr adams at all, but I would not be surprised to learn that a young man is second guessing his choices because I am certain he wants to play.

I think your list is spot on, maybe dump Providence to 3 as I have no relatives in the vicinity. If we had a bracket challenge game I would be flipping a coin for BU or Providence to come out of that regional. but no game cause we are sore losers...

I have only found one bracket contest, it was on College Hockey News.... The Pick'em contest from USCHO is nowhere to be found.

bump

I wish we steered clear of animals, so overdone, but with sundogs looming seemed like a safer route to medocrity

Moser53 should change his name to Daryls Goat

I was hoping this would surface soon, i found one on College Hockey News, but none for here or Pickem, anyone else find any contests?

not to detract (lol) the thread but in the "Ever Since" theme...... Ever since Eades left, passion has declined?

and vegetables, google the story about the secret carrot Eve had in her pocket!!!

dab nabbit. were is the fricken pick em game for the current season, this curmudgeon is losing hair I can't afford to lose

Has the Hobey ever been won by a player currently playing professionally?

Mountain, no worries

I ain't no coach, and I haven't seen a Motel 6 for months, but I liked Reiger as a Forward more than Casey.

is there a way to compare injuries from team to team, I know it was mentioned we need to get our lines set, and set early.... pipe dream with the injuries we had, but I am curious how it compares with other NCHC teams and teams in the tourney.

Relax, it is all just idle speculation... I doubt anyone hear can step up and coach the team, for most stick boy would be a stretch. But frankly summer started when BU won and we need something to talk about....

Pretty sure that tDon would find this unhealthy...
