Usually during the frozen four I can find a team to cheer for or at least there is a team I could cheer against.

I'm curious what people would consider their "FF nightmare." In other words, the FF ends up with 4 teams you would normally cheer against or would have a hard time cheering for.

My FF nightmare would be:

BC

Minnesota

Denver

Michigan.

Not that this would be a bad FF, but I wouldn't know what to do! :ohmy:

Minnesota

Denver

Ohio St.

St. Cloud

I know I should hate BC, but it's hard not to respect them. They aren't cheap or dirty, they simply kick our asses every year by playing hockey the way UND used to play the game. Minnesota and Denver are obvious. I'm a Michigan fan in every other sport, so I hate Ohio St. on principle. I have relatives who went to Wisconsin that always cheer for UND once they've been eliminated, so I've always done likewise. St. Cloud is my fourth thanks to Marvin.

As an alternative, think of this:

Minnesota

Duluth

Mankato

St. Cloud

Imagine all the crap we'd have to hear about the "State of Hockey". Thankfully, it will never happen.

Ok, I'll bite. Why Canisius?

1. They are RIT's arch-rival

2. Their team is full of dirty players (e.g. Carl Hudson, David Cianfrini)

3. Their fans have a superiority complex when their team......

- has never amounted to !@#$ in college hockey

- gets handled by RIT on a consistent basis

- have to use another school's D3 rink because they don't even have their own

4. Their mascot flips off other team's fans

Boston College

Cornell

Minnesota

Denver

I wouldn't watch, nor care about the winner. Probably wouldn't even check on the outcome online......probably wouldn't check on the outcome until....October??

Dream Final Four:

UND

Maine

BU

Colorado College

I had the same question, and was wondering where to put it.

Anyone with an answer?

I am living my Frozen Four nightmare. Holding a bag of really good seats

on ice level that I picked up anticipating being a great guy to friends and family

looking to go after the Sioux beat Yale and Alaska in the Regional.

Then, after the Sioux get beat, the bottom falls out of the market when the Wolverines

get hosed once or twice in their final.

Then, Wisconsin fans are exposed for what they are, and apparently are unable to travel

the short distance to Detroit to follow their team. Of course, they will come out, to some degree,

if the Badgers are playing on Saturday night.

Then, BC will be there and that is always a bit of an aggravation to me.

Then, RIT makes the tournament with its fan base apparently all of 1000 folks or so.

Frozen Four tickets are my nightmare. We will go. Very few others appear to be interested.

We will p robably donate the extras to the Detroit Area Yoot Hockey Foundation and take a

small write down from Uncle Sam.

Imagine, for a moment, the buzz if the Frozen were Wisconsin, Michigan, ND, and BC.

The Detroit merchants must be agonizing. Their nightmare, and mine.
