I'm feeling pretty confident that we are either in Providence or Grand Rapids, and we are playing Niagara first in either scenario

great minds think alike I came up with the same scenario

Now lets assume ND wins tomorrow- 1. Quinnipiac 2. Minnesota 3. Lowell 4. Notre Dame 5T. Miami 5T. BC 7. UNH 8. UND 9T. DU 9T. Niagara 11T. Mankato 11T. Union 13. SCSU 14. Yale 15. WI 16. Canisius Place Top seeds nearest home: Quinnipiac-Providence, Minnesota- Grand Rapids, Lowell- Manchester, Notre Dame- Toledo Place UNH in Manchester Providence 1. Quinnipiac vs 16. Canisius 8. UND vs 9. Niagara (tie split differently to avoid intraconference) Grand Rapids 2. Minnesota vs 14. Yale (swap 14 and 15 to avoid intraconference) 6. BC vs. 11. Mankato {whole bracket moved to keep integrity while keeping UNH in Manchester} Manchester 3. Lowell vs 15. WI (swap 14 and 15 to avoid intraconference) 7. UNH vs 10. DU (tie split differently to avoid intraconference) {whole bracket moved to keep integrity while keeping UNH in Manchester} Toledo 4. Notre Dame vs 13. SCSU 5. Miami vs 12. Union Moves are: splitting ties differently to avoid intraconference, swapping WI and Yale's first round match-ups to avoid intraconference, swapping the BC vs Mankato bracket and the UNH vs DU bracket in order to keep first round match-up integrity while still keeping UNH in Manchester

First, let's assume MI wins tomorrow: 1. Quinnipiac 2. Minnesota 3. Lowell 4. Miami 5. BC 6T. UND 6T. UNH 8. ND 9. DU 10. Niagara 11T. Mankato 11T. Union 13. SCSU 14. WI 15. MI 16. Canisius Place the top seeds nearest home: Quinnipiac- Providence, Minnesota- Grand Rapids, Lowell- Manchester, Miami- Toledo Place UNH in Manchester Providence 1. Quinnipiac vs 16. Canisius 8. Notre Dame vs 9. Denver Grand Rapids 2. Minnesota vs 15. Michigan 7. UND vs 10. Niagara Manchester 3. Lowell vs 14. Wisconsin 6. UNH vs 11. Mankato Toledo 4. Miami vs 13. SCSU 5. BC vs 12. Union Only move is splitting a tie for 6th in PWR differently by making UNH 6 and UND 7. Other than that, straight bracket integrity. Decent attendance.

They can also move one team, or the whole bracket

No, because bracket integrity will be thrown off. They will need to balance Minn in Rapids, NH in Manchester, and avoid intraconference first round, and it looks like DU and Mankato will be 3 seeds, meaning UND can't be in those brackets

Yale can still get in with a Notre Dame and WI win If WI wins, It looks like we will end up in Rapids with the rodents...playing Niagara in the opener. Rodents will play MI or Yale, MI if w Ugly helmets win tomorrow, Yale if golden dormers win

That was a semi final

Hank keeps calling Schwartz by his brother's name

I can tell you- NCHC: UND, DU, CC, UNO, UMD, SCSU, Western MI, Miami Big 10: MN, WI, MI, MI State, Penn State, Ohio State WCHA: AA, Alaska, MTU, LSSU, Ferris, MSUM, Northern MI, BSU....might be missing some here...

Best wishes on a new chapter for a legend...Jack Parker...worthy opponent

Lowell beats BU looks like SCSU is in

In the scenarios I'm playing with, Mankato is the 3 seed in Grand Rapids, thus keeping us out of there to avoid intraconference first round. If BU and BC both make it, one is certain to go to providence

Agree- Michigan is on fire

No, Michigan has to win the ccha tourney tomorrow.

...and 4-0

Michigan up 3-0 on Miami and cruising

SCSU to 13... On the edge of the bubble.... Michigan and BU are big time enemies for Bobby's biker gang...referencing their haircuts

I put CC in Providence playing Lowell

I think we're in Toledo or Providence

Way too much to be decided

Schwartz line is an excellent line-

When Hobey Baker was at Princeton you could drink at 18...heck, you could probably drink if you could see over the bar back then...drinking infractions should not be character criteria-

They've played awesome this tournament...Howe is certainly the MVP. His stops on Kristo, Knight and Gleason were game changers. His breakaway stop on Bjugstad was a game changer. I blew a gasket on that 5 minute call on CC- that was a 2 for boarding, max- kid went into the boards wrong- his fault, and he's lucky he didn't break his neck. It was from the side, not from behind. Home cooking I guess. CC responded perfectly with a great kill. I am glad I scalped my tickets before the afternoon game. I bet you can't sell them today...

I'd like to see them get in so Minnesota has to play them in Michigan (athough not Yost, unfortunately)...in more than one scenario that would be the case...
