Shocked that a bunch of one goal wins at home against the likes of Stonehill and LIU didn’t have PSU ready to go for MSU.

 

We’ll see if we can dispatch of Arizona State the way Penn State did though.  One could argue that Arizona State is as good as anyone we have played up until now, but time will tell.

Considering how UND's loss/tie to Bemidji last year hurt them quite a bit in terms of seeding, I wonder how negatively affected Quinnipiac will be this year for losing to Yale. 

Probably not that much since they are usually the team that will win the ECAC. The only bad loss was Alaska.

Well played

Dang, DU going for the sweep of WMU at Lawson, that's impressive.

We're all out of sorts right now.  Hoping we don't get swept by Miami at home this weekend.  Haven't had that thought in several years.

Here's a semi-amusing stat.

If you look at the Top 50 players in scoring in the country right now, only a handful have a "minus" for a +/- rating.  Two of those are the worst, at -4 on the season.

McKenna and O'Mac.

That is an amusing stat. It would be funnier if Sasha was on that list and had that kind of +/-.

Sacha has 9pts (mainly due to a 4a effort last game), but is still a -2 in +/-.

Brad quoted a scout saying if OMac wasn't drafted the prior year he'd have gone second round the summer before his freshman season; never saw whatever it was that scout saw. Elite vision for passes but wasn't willing to do whatever it took to get the puck. Flyers prospect lists barely acknowledge his existence.

Not really sure if St. Thomas is trying to rotate 3 goalies this year.

Ingemann 1-1-0

Musser 1-4-0

Trotter 1-0-1

[cberkas]

St. Thomas beats St. Cloud 3-1

#14 LIU facing a potential NPI killer on the road against #40 UMN

After watching him this weekend I didn’t like his play, reminds me of how Nikita Kucherov plays lazy, like he doesn’t really try when he’s the best one out there.

The Duluth Loons opportunity missed there

[Godsmack]

The fine folks at LetsgoDU! have really been slipping the past couple of years. As a CC fan I have for years looked forward to their parodies every CC/DU week but man, I’m getting close to the point where I might not even bother reading them anymore. They just aren’t that funny. Their latest started out with a potentially funny premise of soft Crocs skates parody but it simply fell flat. Just one guy’s opinion.

I remember this mascot from the 1980s.

He was "skiing" behind the zamboni between periods at the Old Ralph until his rope somehow got tangled in the equipment and snapped.  That was good for a few laughs.

Can someone look up the line on this game? My state doesn't allow betting on NCAA.

Honestly Denver has a few games to be worried about coming selection time

OTW vs Air Force

Loss to Lindenwood

OTL to Anchorage

Was checking to see if the MI-PSU game would be on the B1G Network tonight, but thankfully they have women's volleyball on instead.

Makes one wonder if wvb would draw more viewers than a college hockey game between two of the better teams in the conference.

Michigan has a sizable fanbase, Penn State has a small but growing hockey fanbase, but idk if there's casual appeal with B1G Hockey. Women's volleyball seems to do pretty well, although completely unsure of their numbers

I can’t find a line on DraftKings. 
 

But they have ASU at -140 tonight.

I meant the LIU-Minnesota game. Seems like one that could be set incorrectly.

They did have the ASU-UND game though, with ASU at -140 and UND at +110. I was a little surprised that ASU is favored.
