It could be a great tool to market the college game to Canadian kids. Best of all, it would p!$$ off the CHL! 😂 1 Quote

The only teams they had to swap were Wisconsin and Cornell so Cornell didn't play Dartmouth in the first round. Of course, I would have wished that Denver and Western weren't in the same bracket but for bracket integrity you need to have 4/5 in the same together. 3 Quote

You mean we can't be like BC and BU and always play in Worcester? Providence won their one and only championship in 2015. They had the regional in Providence even though they were not the host team and then won it in Boston which is 50 miles from Providence. Whereas they think Sioux Falls is in our backyard or 320 miles away. What a whiner! 3 Quote
cberkas Posted yesterday at 04:32 AM Posted yesterday at 04:32 AM The amount of dumb is astonishing online with these regionals Quote

The NCAA did reward Merrimack for winning Hockey East. By allowing them to be in the actual tourney. Otherwise they wouldn't have made it. 3 9 Quote

When you live out East you have no concept of space and distance. Those wankers are used to hopping an Uber to a rival barn. 1 4 Quote

Whereas they think Sioux Falls is in our backyard or 320 miles away. What a whiner! In all the time Leaman has been coach at Providence (~15 years), this is the first time his team has had to fly to a regional (all prior NCAA regional games during his tenure were in CT, NH, MA, or RI--basically a bus trip). That's an absurd amount of good fortune given that his team has generally not been better than a 3 seed in the NCAA's, so I can see where his whining is coming from. Still whining nonetheless 4 Quote
Popular Post ubish Posted yesterday at 02:10 PM Popular Post Posted yesterday at 02:10 PM These spoiled eastern teams are finally getting to see how stupid this setup is. I don't think WMU has been in a regional closer than 500 miles since i've been following the team, and we've been a #1 seed 3 times. 12 Quote

Any particular reason why WMU doesn't host a regional in Grand Rapids again? Looks like the last time a regional was at Van Andel was in 2013 hosted by Michigan but WMU hosted there previously in 2009. 1 Quote

They should host in Detroit, get the admin to actually support the effort. Been in the tourney enough, have great fans, reward them a bitb 1 Quote
brucespook Posted yesterday at 02:59 PM Posted yesterday at 02:59 PM The only thing Minnesota has on Michigan is hockey arrogance. More Stanley cups more national championships, MI is the top dog between the two. 1 Quote
