Want to look at the positives from 2011?
Then ask for the 2011 WCHA Final Five title game vs. Denver (an instant classic).
But please don't dredge up that debacle in the X.
Ironically, this was the last year of the two-game total goal format. The next season (1988), the WCHA switched to the format the NCHC now uses (first round playoff series on campus, followed by a league tournament at a neutral site).
This could be a motivator for guys on national title contending teams who were robbed at the chance of a title this year to come back for at least one more season.
Unless he had a good chance of playing in the NHL right away, he shouldn't leave. He could very well get buried on the depth chart in the minors and never be heard from again. Also, he has had one great year; he could use some more seasoning and so he can prove that this year wasn't a fluke. Which I don't think it was.

Claiming to be "national champions" this year is no different than all the Pre-College Football Playoff "national champions". It's just like MLB in 1994, no champion this year.
