dustnyou Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 4 hours ago, Godsmack said: I’d highly recommend attending a Canisius hockey series if feasible. The food in Buffalo is unbelievable! Buffalo having a history as an old mob town from the prohibition days, has lots of great Italian restaurants. The arena is a really nice venue. The arena itself is elevated above ground seven stories up. And has that open air concourse design that’s become very popular as of late. The arena is across the street from where the Buffalo Sabres play. https://gogriffs.com/sports/2016/5/24/210975389.aspx First time I was in that hotel I was working there. I had to go to a few different floors and it was quite unique to get off the elevator at floor seven and unexpectedly find a hockey rink. The sabres were practicing when I was there. Definitely one of the more unique venues in hockey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 I'd say the "easiest" regional is Allentown. Even though it is close to PSU, I think Michigan comes out of that pretty easily if they play like they did in the B10 tourney. I think Minnesota comes out of Fargo. I'd love to see SCSU take them down, but SCSU looked plenty beatable against UND on Friday...UND just didn't bury their chances. UMN with their better offensive players will take advantage of SCSU much easier than we did. I could see any one of three teams coming out of both Manchester and Bridgeport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 With the sole exception of Denver, nobody else has held an NCAA trophy in over a decade. This has got to be one of the hungriest NCAA fields ever. After Denver, the championship droughts are as follows: Boston Univ. (14 years) Minnesota (20 years) Michigan (25 years) Harvard (34 years) Michigan Tech (48 years) Cornell (53 years) The remaining 9 teams (over half the field) have never won a title. Once UND is out, my rooting interest usually becomes the team that has never won or has a long title drought. So, lots of teams to cheer for this year. Hope it's an interesting tournament.

Love the idea (it's not a new one), but I know there are some logistics problems in this case. The biggest problem is that the venues and host institutions would not know they are supposed to hold a regional until just a few days before it is supposed to start. Maybe there could be a week delay between the conf. championships and NCAA starting? Not sure how much that would help. Or announce the #1 seeds at the conclusion of the regular season? I don't think any potential #1 seed would find its way out the NCAA tournament at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
