    If Reinke keeps it up, I could see him jumping into the 2015 frosh class, especially since he's doing it in the USHL.

      Yes. You would be safe making that argument, especially this year. I don't like Minnesota much, but I do respect the fact that they are serious about their hockey program. Ohio State isn't serious. Michigan's administration doesn't care. Barry Alvarez doesn't know the school has hockey. I guess if one team has to win the conference Minnesota is probably the least offensive. I miss Doug Woog whining all the time about Tech's physical play. Those were the days.

        You do realize that 31 of those were won by teams no longer in the conference, right?

          You realize your team sucks right? They'd be a WCHA bottom-feeder if allowed back.

            Not sure how that's relevant, or if it's even true, except at this very moment. But I don't mind you living it up a little. You guys deserve it.

              The WCHA has claimed Michigan's titles from the 1940s for a very long time and I never once heard that crap then did you? The current composition of the WCHA still has 8 titles which isn't too shabby, certainly not the number it used to be with the likes of Minnesota and North Dakota. The Big Ten has a ton of National Championships in the past but that isn't really helping them at all right now. I know you came here to make sure our poster understood that #, but I really don't care about that #. It's quite irrelevant, because we live in a what have you done for me lately world and hopefully the WCHA can win a title and send a giant F U to all the teams that thought they'd be better off without us...

                  The WCHA has 37 national championships to its credit. That's 37 more than the Big 10 and NCHC have won. Combined. I'm sure I could come up with more facts and stats like these but I'm laughing so hard I'm crying!

                  Oh man. Is it Friday yet?

                    Yeah it is. He's playing for a local amateur team and agreed to help out for our intrasquad game and apparently we've got him still. Happy Veterans Day to him and all others!

                      By my count, the current WCHA has 8 titles.

                        sorry sir, I admit I forgot about BGSU's run to the title. I apologize.

                          Correct.

                          But, BGSU and LSSU won theirs as members of the CCHA, so the WCHA only has four titles.

                            If we do that then the number is 37, not 4...It's either 8 or 37, not 4.

                              I like the 37 number. I think the WCHA needs a motto reflecting this rich history. I also like the Big 10 at 0 and the NCHC at 0. Yes, it's ridiculous, but so is the argument that the WCHA is weak when we're racking up quality non-conference wins. As per the yahoo article discussion the sample size for these new conferences is too small and they haven't been able to beat the vaunted ECAC teams. It's only Tuesday.

                                I didn't mean to derail this thread with that earlier comment, but as it's only Tuesday...

                                Geez. The B1G is claiming 23 titles and 68 FF's??? Not sure who to believe now...

                                Hang on...

                                Ok... So I just added up all the titles won by various conference iterations and it comes to 762 National Championships.

                                So no worries! Turns out there are plenty for everyone! (even Atlantic!)
