Then go back and review for goalie interference and say it's not a goal. Why not just say that when you first review the goal. Stop wasting time NCHC refs. Kind of surprise they reviewed it in the first place to see if it crossed the line. Don’t reviews have to come from challenges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope they fall a couple more spots...the last few bracket predictions have them in UND's bracket. Don't want that at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowe was down on his own accord, the puck was in the crease, therefore in play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwamleyShuffle Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 It amazes me how SCSU is on the border of getting into the NCAAs yet they played so well against us. Like I know how the pairwise works and how they had rough start to season but still it’s wild to think the second best team in the NCHC may need to win the conference tourney to get in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect, ”Adam Wodon, you’re no Grand Poobah.” Honestly Adam, there is no perfect system to selecting and there never will be.

IMHO he is too entrenched in the "keep it fair" argument. Well Adam, in the current system there have been countless "not fair" scenarios based on regionals being held in locations a stones throw from certain campuses where higher seeded teams are playing a road game, notably Miami in Providence when Providence was the last team in. Ticket prices....sigh... Nothing to do with it Adam....talk to Delta airlines about flight costs and the Best Western about their prices....plus your rental car or Uber everywhere for what could be a one and done. At least he's come a bit more towards the middle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the sooner your team is a lock for the top 8, the sooner jet set fans can book flights and hotels, making it more accessible. It's also yet to be seen if the gap day affects attendance in the current format. It might allow people time to get to a final, but fans of the losing teams in first round won't stick around as much.

farce poobah Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Wodon argues the Pairwise is not a good way to select teams for home ice, so lets keep the status quo regionals. That's a major error of logic, and any middle-school debater would tear that argument to pieces. My preference? Let's start with Schlossman's round of 16 at 8 rinks, followed by a round of 8 at 4 rinks. I think this, all by itself, and regardless of how the home teams are awarded, is vastly better than current. Since everyone can host a home game, the only exclusion I can think of is an arena that doesn't allow broadcasting to the standards of ESPN's contract. At the team's option, they can select an arena that's not their regular home arena. Home ice can be selected by a variety of mechanisms. I would favor giving the Automatic Qualifiers home ice in round one; and randomly selecting the last two home ice, and all of the visiting team matchups. (Process should have a sequence of selections to avoid interconference matchups.) Have the Selection Show be a live and interesting event with some real drama! Part of my rationale in favor of this random element is to avoid incentives where at-large teams can benefit by losing in conference tournaments. Importantly, it becomes harder for any conference to argue against solely on the grounds they never rank high enough to host. This may increases the votes in favor of the new regionals structure. Alternatively, award all the Round of 16 home ice by random selection. Or a third alternative, a weighted random selection where the PWR ranking gives you better odds, but not certainty, of hosting regional games. (Similar to NHL draft lottery.) For the round of 8, I would prefer the serpentine 1v8, 2v7 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I'd say that NCHC is still pretty solid, just doesn't consume cupcakes at the rate the Big 10 and Hockey East do. Pairwise can be gamed schedule wise and HEA benefits from being top eastern league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
