farce poobah Posted March 16 Posted March 16 The bubble is really starting to squeeze. Any NCHC bubble teams that lose tomorrow really need non-NCHC bubble teams to go down: New Hampshire, Cornell, Michigan, etc. Some good teams will get sent to the NIT start golfing come Monday morning. 2 Quote

I think Omaha's pops tonight. I was rooting for them to get over the hump too, but they got arguably the hottest team in the NCHC in their home arena where they haven't lost in regulation since December. Quote
krustyklown Posted March 17 Posted March 17 As #1 seed, UND will be in the Wild’s locker room & bench on semi-final Friday, correct? Quote

Blackheart Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Rooting for Western to take out the Clowns tomorrow...we seem to match up well with them. Quote

Wilbur Posted March 17 Author Posted March 17 Hedquist good in the net for UND this weekend, but Latkozcy for Omaha has been the story in that series. Almost stole the first game when his team got outshot badly, and now has the Mavs on the brink of history. Teams playing for their lives tonight. Will make for good hockey. Quote

What I don't want to hear from Hennessey this weekend is how "outstanding" Miami's goaltender is playing or how Miami is playing a great road game. Miami would struggle to earn home ice in the AHA and should be dispatched in two games. No Excuses. Thankfully we burned out the goal lights this weekend. 1 Quote

Yeah, but can he keep it up? Gotta think that eventually the avalanche of shots CC is getting will pay off. Quote
siouxweet Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Now that we are in the playoffs for PWR how are OT games factored? Quote

I would argue that we played better against Omaha but didn’t get the goaltending we got when we played Western. Western took it to us at home. I worry much more about Western’s offense, although both teams can have a goaltender that can play great. 1 Quote

We may have “hot goalied” Western on the last Friday game against them, but I seem to remember a much more dominant performance in the Saturday game. Either way, it’s all one and done from here on out so it really doesn’t matter who you play. Quote

Wilbur Posted March 17 Author Posted March 17 So in the current scenarios you've got to be 14th in the pairwise to get in with the Atlantic and the CCHA winner getting in. You've got to hope that BC and the Q take care of business against UMass and St. Lawrence in their tournaments to breathe a bit easier. 1 Quote

Cornell moves into the top 14 with a win next weekend and that would drop UMass to 15th with a BC win. Quote
Dustin Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Wouldn't UND be good with some "below the cut line" teams getting AQs and taking bids away from 13-14 pairwise teams? As long as Omaha isn't the NCHC AQ? Take out UMass and take out Omaha and the committee is free to do things without concern for bidding hosts. 1 Quote

Benny Baker Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Quinnipiac’s won 8 of the last 12 ECAC regular championships. In that same time, they have 1 conference tournament championship. I’m taking Dartmouth, who was 0-1-3 against Cornell and Quinnipiac, as my dark horse. Quote

So, If Dartmouth wins Cornell drops out. 16 and 15 are taken by AHA and CCHA. the only teams out of the top 16 are St. Lawerence, St. Cloud, and Dartmouth fighting over 14th and 13th. Quote
