  1. Now I’m developing a scenario that gets wonky. UND vs Sacred Heart or AIC and Clarkson vs Providence in Worcester...sets up David vs Goliath. NCHC vs Atlantic Hockey in a regional hosted by Atlantic hockey. Unfriendly confines for us out East there for sure. DU vs Quinnipiac and BC vs UMD in Denver...region of death. Mankato vs Northeastern and PSI vs ASU in Allentown Cornell vs New Hampshire and UMass vs Ohio State in Albany. only stated rule being violated is #1 seeds being placed closest to home in rank order. Can’t do it with UND and DU, because DU is host. You could send UND to Allentown instead of Mankato, but it’s a flight either way. Better to keep bracket integrity... so it’s Worcester this week...
  2. All these references to DHG...is he really in trouble with the law and is there really a restraining order against him??
  3. My takeaways on UMD are as follows: 1. That is a hard, heavy, fast team with a mean streak. Sandy and Herter have clearly brought Sioux hockey to the Twin Ports. 2. The Dawgs are an experienced good team. They have all bought in, all the non freshmen have rings, older guys have two. Importantly one of those guys is between the pipes. 3. The Dawgs have more skill than they get credit for. They are not Gopher or Sioux rejects or just the pride of the range- 3 guys on that team have World Juniors experience, where only two of our guys do, and for both of our guys it was this year. 4. As I said earlier on another post, They push the pace north south and don’t try to do too much 5x5. The speed at which they do this results in no time and space for anyone (including them), what it does do is forces other teams to panic or make mistakes that leads to turnover opportunities on the rush (lots of breakaway chances). Get a breakaway goal and 1 or 2 on the pp and give your opponents nothing to work with- that’s a recipe for a lot of wins. 5. I want nothing to do with them in the NCAAs. They will be a tough out. Whatever bracket they land in- especially if they get in as a 3 seed- will likely become the 2020 region of death.
  4. NCAA is going to want an Eastern team to win it this year...
  5. And two minutes later was on the ice as the extra attacker
  6. I am so sick of everything be reviewed
  7. Annie, who’s Annie? Get the broad out of your head, C’mon Crash.
  8. Oh great... did she stop underlining the (censored) scenes in his road trip book?
  9. It’s a great way to win college hockey games...5x5 don’t worry about making great plays, just north and south at high speed, hitting, pushing pucks forward. Then have a 25% pp.
  10. Duluth broke down our structure with fast physical play. They didn’t allow us to make the kind of plays we like to make when we have a little time and space. I’ve been in those games where the pace is so fast that you can’t think, you just have to react and not make a dumb play.
  11. I was so pi$$ed off. Sitting at the bar...just fuming
  12. Didn’t know where to post this, but I have apparently run out of free articles on the herald. As I don’t live in ND or MN, I just don’t think I’m going to Pony up. It’s a trivial amount, but kinda like paying for parking...I just don’t like the idea of it. The business model of a paper is toast.
  13. 1. The summary page on USCHO pairwise is wrong. DU is currently 4 and BC 5. 56 and 55 comparisons respectively. 2. They will NOT make an 8 and 5 switch. That is a big time screw job on the #1 overrall seed.
  14. You really think that they will artificially place BC into Worcester? I know they'd love that to happen, but I don't think they do that artificially.
