    I think I saw some scenarios where we could leap over N. Dakota. If that happens then it doesn't really matter...as long as the NCHC isn't a three bid league.

      I think there are quite a few scenarios, both positive and negative, where we know our fate after today's games.

      e.g. all three of Colgate, Cornell, and MSU-M win, we're done. All three lose, I think we're in.

        The one concern here would be that if MSU loses and then Bowling Green turns around and beats Ferris tomorrow, that steals a bid.

          Pretty sure that is if N.Dakota loses the consolation game.

            Why I will be tuning into the Wisky game shortly. MInn State starting right now. Need Penn State to lose as well as UNH tonight. So know I know that I want ND to win tonight. ND and Providence.

              Lots of permutations still. UNH winning tonight actually helps our RPI a bit since they played 5 times....the ideal scenario would be them losing to ND and Bowling Green losing to Ferris.

                Would be a tense night.

                  Penn state and Wisco tied 1-1 with 6:30 left in the 2nd. If PSU wins, how bad is that for NU? Big IF in my opinion but who knows
                  GO NU!

                    Would UNH losing tonight reflect badly on NU? It would seem to be more beneficial to us if UNH won tonight and lost tomorrow to whomever they play.

                    It seems that our posters are having as much fun handicapping our NC$$ chances as they had all season (at least through February)!

                      We don't always win Hockey East or the Beanpot (#trilogy).. but when we do.. we are the Champions

                        We benefit more from PC winning for whatever reason. Did UNH play Michigan in the HEA-BTHC challenge or something? That's the only reason I could think of. Our best HEA scenario is ND, PC, then ND to win.

                          I don't think PSU winning this game would be bad for NU per se, but it would leave a negative outcome in play (PSU winning the BTHC (tm) tournament). If Wisconsin wins, that's one potential upset winner gone.

                            I think we could have a chance to leapfrog UNH if they lose tonight. They might lose a few more winning percentage comparisons, which could propel us by them.

                                If my Pairwise Predictor skills are accurate, we're down to this.

                                Tonight:
                                Quinnipiac Must Win (Currently in OT2 intermission) (Loss Puts Colgate in)

                                Tomorrow:
                                Atlantic Hockey- Doesn't Matter
                                ECAC- Doesn't Matter
                                WCHA- Doesn't Matter
                                NCHC Championship- Doesn't Matter

                                NCHC Third Place- Western Michigan Win OR Tie (Loss puts North Dakota in)
                                HEA- UML Win (Loss Puts UNH in)
                                BTHC- Wisconsin Win (Loss puts OSU in)
