Was curious how we didn’t land Makar and found a great article about it - I’m sure most on here have seen it. He is so good - don’t think the Dogs would’ve shut us down with him like they did UMASS.

so it's pretty much a guess?

Got it - thanks!

Most likely discussed previously through the years but none of the USHL venues in Iowa are interested in hosting? That's Midwest, albeit the western edge.

That's what I thought last night but don't it will happen. I think Moy/Connelly (Wilbur too) got it correct with a 10 - 11 swap and UND in Worcester.

With how things lined up a number 1 band team is going to get potentially punished, in this case it's WMU. My initial rationale was to leave the WMU bracket alone and in Worcester since 2 Mass. schools were already there but I failed to see 10 SCSU 11 UMASS swap and assigning MSU-M bracket to Worcester. I will be very surprised if the bracket you laid out isn't the bracket the committee presents.

I don't mind our bracket. I swapped 9 and 10 but the 10 - 11 swap makes more sense in the fact that the overall #1 seed's bracket remains true.

According to Moy and Connelly your gut is right.

or Albany, does it really matter?

I like the potential bracket in Allentown.

My guess: Albany 1 MICH/16 AIC 8 QUIN/10SCSU Allentown 2 MSU-M/15 HAR 7 UND/9 ND Worcester 3 WMU/14NE 6 UM-tc/11 UMASS Loveland 4 DU/13UML 5 UMD/12 MTU

Don't think they move UMASS out of Worcester

Notre Dame swap with SCSU - answered my question - thanks

Looks like a UND - SCSU first round matchup which won't happen. What will the committee do to avoid that? Can they swap 2 seeds, 8 and 7 specifically, to follow protocol? Or will they look for a 3 seed swap?

UML best help their campaign with a win tonight.

They and OSU can still get in, provided Beavers loose, UCONN loses, and Quin. wins ECAC. 13 to 15 is not very solid at the moment.

G - Puke says he was a commit.

Can't play puck on other side. Have to cross redline during the long change period during a delayed penalty. It's a long ways to go in some rinks with penalty boxes n pa in between benches.

AHA: AIC / RIT / Air Force / Mercyhurst ECAC: Quinnipiac / Clarkson / Harvard / Colgate HEA: Northeastern / UMass / UM-Lowell / Connecticut CCHA: Minnesota State / Bemidji State B1G: Minnesota / Michigan NCHC: Denver / UND / WMU / UMD

Moy and Connelly have a new one out. Thought it was a pretty straight forward week except for the final swap with 6 - 11 out to Worcester and 5 -12 to Loveland. I thought swapping 11 UMASS with 12 MTU addressed the attendance in Worcester.

excuse me 5.25 9 - 2 - 6 - 4 according to most current pairwise/RPI

4 2 - 4 - 4 - 6

Interesting, never thought of it like that.

I also think committee would consider swapping 12 MTU with 11 UMASS which would move them to Worcester and Tech to Loveland.

Agree, we would be in Loveland if it was today. It would be close to a straight up bracket with exception of swapping 14 NE with 15 OSU. I don't think OSU will be in the mix after the weekend though and who knows what will happen in HE.
