Sodbuster Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Boom! Love and Honor for MIAMI!! Honor, yes....love, don't push it. Quote
Cromulent Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Here's my west regional prediction: (1) UND vs. (4) Yale (2) UMN vs. (3) UNO Quote
Godsmack Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Coleman gets a hat trick, tossed from championship game, and named MVP. Now what would one call that hat trick of achievements? Quote
Stinger_UND Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Here's my west regional prediction: (1) UND vs. (4) Yale (2) UMN vs. (3) UNO Did you do a lot of switching of teams for attendance purposes? I've got these teams in the Fargo regional: Here's my west regional prediction:(1) UND vs. (4) Providence(2) Michigan Tech vs. (3) St. Cloud I flopped St. Cloud with Harvard in the 3 seeds. Providence could flop with Quinnipiac but they're both so close in distance to each other I didn't see a point really. Edit: Nevermind....I think my pairwise results are off. Double edit....I don't know, the pairwise sites aren't agreeing. whatevs. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 CHN has 8 Harv 9 UNO; USCHO has 8 UNO 9 Harv. CHN has 13 QU 14 Yale ; USCHO has 13 Yale 14 QU Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 Not sure if my PWR calculations are correct or not but I have North Dakota out of the tournament at #18 just behind Lakeville North and Minot. You miscalculated Lakeville North's RPI again I bet. Quote
fargosioux Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 My predictions: Fargo North Dakota vs. Providence Michigan Tech vs. St. Cloud South Bend Mankato vs. RIT Omaha vs. Minnesota Manchester BU vs. Quinnipiac Duluth vs. BC Providence Miami vs. Yale Denver vs. Harvard Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Not sure if my PWR calculations are correct or not but I have North Dakota out of the tournament at #18 just behind Lakeville North and Minot. You banked on Minnesota and/or BC missing the tournament. I don't know what to believe from you. Quote
JaDubbs Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I think Michigan Tech will be the 2 seed and Minnesota will be the 3 seed in Fargo going off of USCHO website Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 You banked on Minnesota and/or BC missing the tournament. I don't know what to believe from you. Yea, my deep faith in Michigan turned out to be some maize and blue Jim Jones Kool-Aid. Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Yea, my deep faith in Michigan turned out to be some maize and blue Jim Jones Kool-Aid.Yeah, I wonder how much longer Red sticks around? It was really feast or famine for Michigan. Depended way too heavily on its offense to pot more goals than the opponent to win games. I wonder if Dylan Larkin is going to be leaving shortly now with their season over. Quote
SiouxScore Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 My Predictions: South Bend 1. Mankato vs. 16. RIT 8. Omaha vs. 10. Minnesota Fargo 2. UND vs. 14. Quinnipiac 7. Michigan Tech vs. 12. St. Cloud Manchester 3. Boston U vs. 13. Yale 6. Duluth vs. 11. Boston College Providence 4. Miami vs. 15. Providence 5. Denver vs. 9. Harvard Quote
jk Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Curious how people get SCSU in Fargo, when it's so easy to go chalk 7-10 and put MN there. Quote

Depended way too heavily on its offense to pot more goals than the opponent to win games. I wonder if Dylan Larkin is going to be leaving shortly now with their season over. It really is quite amazing when you look at some of the talented players that could/will be sitting at home watching the NCAA tournament, isn't it? Quote
Stromer Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I think Michigan Tech will be the 2 seed and Minnesota will be the 3 seed in Fargo going off of USCHO website I sure hope it doesn't go down like this. That would mean St. Cloud would have to face another NCHC team in the 1st round. And while the rules may allow this, it would be a shame as they could easily switch Denver for Tech or St. Cloud, Harvard, & Minnesota and avoid it. But this is the NCAA after all.... Quote
fargosioux Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Curious how people get SCSU in Fargo, when it's so easy to go chalk 7-10 and put MN there. If they choose to avoid first round intra-conference matchups, St. Cloud can only play Mich. Tech in the first round. Quote
SiouxScore Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Curious how people get SCSU in Fargo, when it's so easy to go chalk 7-10 and put MN there. Avoid a 1st round matchup between 2 NCHC teams which doesn't have to be done but is likely. Quote
GoalieMask Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if they put Omaha vs St Cloud in Fargo and ship Minneaota vs Tech to Ann Arbor. I know the inter inference matchup is something they avoid in round one but the ability to have three teams bus to one site is attractive. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 The 1 seeds are pretty simple: MSUM to South Bend, UND to Fargo, BU to Providence, Miami to Manchester. In the 4 seeds I see four eastern schools. About the only concern is do they keep Providence (not a host) in Providence, otherwise I expect "straight chalk" (1 v 16, 2 v 15, etc). In the 3 seeds I see two east, two west. My guess is they'll try to keep east east and west west for attendance and travel. Their problem is South Bend attendance with MSU-Mankato as the 1 there. They need a "name" -- Minnesota -- on the marquee there. That would put SCSU in Fargo. The 2 seeds I expect "chalk" also: 8 UNO to MSUM (which works for travel also); 7 MTU to Fargo; 6 Duluth to BU; 5 DU to Miami Quote
GoalieMask Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Not Ann Arbor, South Bend. Too much rooting for Michigan tonight apparently. Quote
Cromulent Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 The actual PWR on CHN doesn't match the prediction with Minnesota and Miami winning tonight, which happened. I guess I'll wait until morning to make a prediction. Or I could just wait for the selection show tomorrow. But what fun is that? Quote
JaySioux Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 My guess to the regionals is: Fargo: Sioux vs Providence Duluth vs Minnesota South Bend: Minnesota State vs RIT Omaha vs Harvard Providence: Boston vs St. Cloud Michigan Tech vs Boston College Manchester: Miami vs Yale Denver vs Quinnipiac Quote
