Someone else do the math but isn't our win % in the WCHA better than DU/Wisco?

If so, UCHO will put us in the tournament as a projected auto-bid when they do this week's PWR Predictions.

Amazing - the WCHA's best team (win %) is ranked 17 in RPI/PWR.

I don't know what to think about this.

I still think from top to bottom the WCHA is the most competitive conference in DI, but we're not playing well as a conference this year. I can't get all excited about the CCHA either. They have their version of SCSU (Miami) but otherwise is really a 2.5 team league (Notre Dame and Michigan being the 2 and MSU being the .5).

I'd guess, then, that HEA would be the best conference outside of the WCHA. BU, BC, UNH, and recently Maine and Northeastern...

UNH is probably Hockey East's version of SCSU :D Only they have actually one a game in the NCAA's :D

we're at .625 they both are at .636, so they will not put us in as the autobid.

They made it to the NC game at least once.

If UNH is HEA's SCSU, then they have a case to be the superior conference to us.

beanpot 3rd place game will be underway soon - go harvard

gametracker

That gametracker isn't gonna work, gametracker really is a crapshoot now, very unreliable.

I'll update the Beanpot Consolation game here in this post. Can't do the Championship Game, I'll be too emotionally unstable as it's the Boy's very last Beanpot game. (And yes, I am a girl, so I'm allowed to be emtionally unstable over a hockey game. :angry: )

End of the 1st: Tied 1 - 1 (the teams traded PP goals)

Edit: Only took a period, but yes the gametracker is now working.

Not my son (I'm not that old) . . . just a good friend, I've always referred to him as "the boy" for some reason

2 - 1 Harvard

Both HU goals by Michaud.

2 - 2 Now . . . BC ran the goalie but the goal counts.

3 - 2 Harvard now on a SHG (all of this has happened within the span of 2 min) We're now halfway through regulation.

This would be a huge game for Harvard to get a W though.

It would also be huge for Harvard's goalie . . . he's making his first career start.

Under 7:00 in the 2nd still 3 - 2 Harvard

BC ties it at 3

End of the 2nd: all tied at 3.

BC has had more shots and more powerplays, but Muse looks only marginally better than last week.

siouxweet I really dont want to run the numbers at the moment will we move ahead of them in rpi?

I'm about 80% positive that if they tied being harvards rpi is so low bc would dip below us in rpi. I think we lost like 20 points in rpi when we tied tech.

what is the overtime in the third place game 5 minutes?

I was only about 50% but I'm not sure that they can tie?

They will play 20 min. overtime periods until someone wins.

Edit: my bad, I asked one of the BU beat writers and he said they'll treat it as a regular game with respect to overtime. I swore they played to sudden death, but I've never been to a Beanpot consolation game so I guess I must be wrong.

3rd is underway.

This game is really boring . . . still 3 - 3.

And Harvard's band is annoying the crap out of me./ rant

6 minutes left, both teams have had a pp, still tied at 3.

4 minutes left, BC with 3 consecutive icings.

Under a minute left, BC takes the 4 - 3 lead. 41 seconds left . . . Harvard timeout . . .

BC wins 4 - 3 . . . sorry I don't have better news . . .
