Interesting question, how many team ranked #1 in the nation will be in the twin cities next weekend? UND, Mankato, Michigan Tech, am I missing any?

  

The top three in the PWR will be there UND, Mankato, and Denver.

Here's hoping that all 3 don't get sent to Fargo the next week.

So....

 

If WMU wins tonight and next weekend, and gets the autobid, will there be still be 6 NCHC teams in the top 14?  And thereby 7 in the tourney?

You have to think Blais will be fired before the tournament begins, with the way his team has collapsed down the stretch. Sandelin could be gone too. Maybe gfhockey can get them jobs running errands on the patch.

I wonder if they know how to drive stick shifts.

Stick to the yearly screaming of firing your own coach and don't try to pretend you have a clue what's going on in Duluth.

Sandelin isn't going anywhere

Forgive my friend here, he is pretty slow.

Yeah it was probably sarcasm but oh well. Annoying times in Duluth

Duluth will be traveling out east as a #2 seed with two weeks rest, instead of a #1 or 2 seed with games against the best teams in the country this weekend. Annoying perhaps, but a pretty good place to start for a run at the title.

Are you old enough to remember the decade in between the national championship seasons of 1987 and 1997? Some pretty lean years there. Not any one season anywhere near as bad as 4-24-4 but I believe only 1 NCAA appearance if I remember correctly. Sioux fans didn't burn GF to the ground, they merely shifted their focus more to the up-and-coming football program. It was not at all difficult to get Sioux hockey tickets during most of those years.

The years between 87 and 97 are nowhere near 4-25-5 so can't really compare. Also, twitter wasn't around allowing people to assemble quickly for the purposes of destroying a town :)

The Sioux had some real offensive firepower during the 89-91 years--G Johnson, Dixon Ward, Jeff McLean, Eisenhut, Bombadir.   They just didn't have the whole roster, though, including goaltending

88-92: great talent, great expectations, and more disappointing results each year in that strech.

1991-1992 was pretty abysmal and REA had maybe 2,500-3,000 fans in attendance on any given night.

Watch Western upset Miami today and we'll see two NCAA tournament-bound teams resting up and getting healthy.

Uhhhh...it's a long-running inside joke here, DHG. Don't get your SpongeBob tightie whities in a bundle.

Now they slipped back to 13th.

Nailed my MI/MSU split and Gopher sweep prediction over on your site, Mariucci. tBitchingandMoaning has left the building.

Don't you know the rules around here? Never ever give the Gophers credit for anything and always try to find the chink in the armor, magnifying it while ignoring their good point, if one even exists.

Fixed!

Lowell leads Notre Dame 3-1

Go RiverHawks! Or is it Riverhawks? River Hawks?

Edit: it's River Hawks (two words) as opposed to Miami's RedHawks.

that's eastern I believe so 6 o'clock for most of us.

anyone know if a person can listen on the internet?  I just bought 2 tickets to paradi... I mean the frozen faceoff and don't want to spend the money on the webcast.

Quinnipiac leads Union 2-0

Quinnipiac is a bubble team and could possibly win the ECAC tournament...I'd sure like to see Union back in the field of 16 though. Imagine that team with senior Shayne Gostisbehere playing...
