7>4 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 The only number that I think matters at this point is 3. If Poolman can't go, that is a huge loss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Schlossman just tweeted: Quote Berry on Tucker Poolman: "He's one of the toughest guys we have in the NCHC. Expect him to be back playing in the regional next weekend." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I'm using the PWR predictors at USCHO and CHN and getting UND at 10. That's what I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating Duluth would be more satisfying, but we match up better against DU. Promise you I will be cheering against Duluth 100% of the way though.

The Sicatoka Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I expect a UMD/OSU match up Friday in Fargo with HEA/AHA officials. And I smile ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cberkas Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Think of the 1 seed getting Providence in Providence. Not the year to be a 1 seed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Wodon's take is out. (I haven't read it yet either.) http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2017/03/19_Bracket-ABCs-Final-NCAA-Projection.php EDIT: Now that I've read it, Wodon's lost it this time.

Wilbur Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Two different experts have Denver in Fargo against Tech. I don't think Duluth goes to Fargo either. Someone in that room saw that garbage at TC tonight. If it was a great college hockey game Duluth is in Fargo. It was an embarrassment, they're not going to Fargo.

The Sicatoka Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Swapping two games from "chalk" (DU/MTU to Fargo, UMD/OSU to Cincy) gives an undeserved advantage to OSU, but it'll raise attendance by ... maybe 3? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Providence will be in Providence. OSU makes sense in Ohio, and would actually raise attendance by 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godsmack Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I really don't want Duluth in our regional. Say what you will about the officiating tonight, we don't match up as well against them (assuming we take care of business in the first round).

nodakvindy Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Sad thing is chalk works perfect but they won't do it. Denver bracket in Cincy UMD bracket in Fargo Harvard in Manchester Minnesota in Providence This avoids the unearned Providence home games but still has some close proximity teams in every regional so attendance should be reasonable.

Say what you will about the officiating tonight, we don't match up as well against them (assuming we take care of business in the first round). I believe we are more likely to beat UMD rather than the Pios in the tournament. Yes our style matches better with Denver but the NCAAs usually comes down to "who wants it more". Denver being less than a minute from the championship game last year wants revenge by knocking us out this year. After going 0-5 and losing in a dirty game at the TC I think we have a strong desire to serve UMD some humble pie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
