Clowns @ Hawks -- Saturday Break Out The Brooms Edition

I assume home ice is now out of the question since St. Cloud has a better head to head record. Of course Miami would give up a late lead against Omaha.

It’s very possible that the opening round playoff series for both UND and Duluth will be the same matchup they have during the last regular season games. UND against Omaha and St. Cloud against Duluth.

I think these guys showed they are capable of winning the conf. tourney.   That includes goaltending.    Not likely, but a fighting chance.

Yes, agreed.  This team has shown that they are capable of playing with, and beating, any top team they've faced (except Denver).
Teams that have steamrolled their competition this season like QU and MN (current #1 & #2 in PWR)...UND has beaten both (yeah, yeah..QU in shootout, whatever).

Unfortunately, their huge lapses of bad games and bad losses means that even if they put together a run, it's going to be a very difficult path.

-NCHC playoffs...they'll be on the road.  You know it'll go 3 games.  Hopefully UND can prevail.
-IF they do...they'll get DU for the 1st game of the NCHC tourney with their season on the line.  They'd have to get that elusive first win over them and still try to beat SCSU/WMU the next game to make it to the NCAA tourney.
-IF they do that, their reward will be playing in Fargo with a home crowd...with their opponent very likely being top ranked UMN. 

Ouch ouch ouch.

Which helps us we want Omaha not Saint Cloud 

These last couple weekends are gonna be crazy for seeding, things could move around a ton still.

2nd to 4th place all only separated by 3 points.
5th to 7th place all only separated by 3 points.

I'm guessing math and tie-breakers will be involved.  We won't play DU first round, but we could be traveling to any of those teams currently in 2-4...crossing my fingers for Omaha.

I’m confused, we’re playing for the highest seed possible or playing for matchups now?
