        No disagreement here, sorry to see BU miss the tourney, Joe Pereria is my neighbor. I think his younger brother is heading to the Terriers as well.

          Just having some fun Tony, as townie not a gownie, I will allow myself to wallow in some BS before the real game. I would love to have a productive discussion with the fans of BC and UND about the offensive strengths of Yale and some of the disadvantages we face as the underdogs along with Alaska. There is a serious lack of respect for both of the lower seeds in this thread and in the respective favorites home threads, so in my case I feel it's what they don't know that might hurt them. One thing about Yale, we are certainly well rested.
          I don't think it's so much disrespecting your squad (except in Dirty's case, of course) as it is having a lot of confidence in our own right now. This team has shown tremendous resilience during a long and trying season; and, as in years past under Coach Hakstol, they are peaking at the right time:

          The Sioux have won 12 of their last 13 games--all but 2 of those games were against TUCs, including the last 2 vs. #2 DU and #7 SCSU. During that stretch, UND has scored 55 goals (4.23/gm) and allowed just 22 (1.69/gm). So those are a few of the reasons we as fans feel pretty good about our 5th-seeded Sioux squaring off against the 9-seed in round 1. Doesn't mean we think Yale won't give us a game, it just means we think our team is ready for it.

              Excellent point and well taken. Believe me I was torn between the Bemidji match up Yale was supposedly to receive, and ending up against one of the hottest and best teams in the Division One. I am seriously looking forward to both match ups on Saturday and will be lucky enough to be there in person. Getting to cheer for Yale for the second year in a row in the premier event of college hockey says alot about the program and alot about the players and coach. I hope to see some close hockey, if Yale can't get the cycle going down low they will be in for a long night though.

                  I think your earlier point about not knowing what's coming is also true (at least for me it is). We don't see/hear a lot about you guys during the regular season, so our first reaction to the draw is fairly uninformed. Obviously you have faced tough competition this year as well and put together a solid season. I doubt the players and coaching staff are looking past Saturday...

                  It may be too early to start talking hockey in this thread, but what can we expect to see from the Bulldogs this weekend?

                        Is this the best you can do? Obviously book smarts doesn't translate remotely to creativity.

                          That just further nullifies his point. I'd bet large sums of money that if we were able to search police records for every player in Yale history (since he needs to go back 5 years to find beef on us), i'm sure we'd find DUI's and other crimes all over the place.

                            you're an idiot dolan... first of all, if you were a real college hockey fan and noticed my name "superfan" then you'd realize i'm a bc fan... second, my point is that this kind of stuff doesn't fly at schools like bc... obv every program has incidents like dui's and drug use that we may/may not know about because we're still talking about 18-23 year old kids (probably not the coach waving his middle finger tho) but jerry york's not gonna tolerate it no matter who it is whether it's his best player or his 4th line winger (see bm and o'h in oct 07)... and finally, what are you even talking about???????... search police records blah, blah, blah.... get a life!!!

                            "i love making people eat their words"..... most ndakota fans ive talked to at frozen fours through the years know hockey and know their program's history... you didn't even get what or whom i was referring to.... get off the bandwagon guy you don't belong.

                              You defended Mr. Yale, so I assumed you were his Ivy league butt buddy or something, sorry I didn't draw the connection to the "superfan" name. Guess I don't understand the whole thing because we don't need gimmicks to get fans to attend games around here. I grew up by the Twin Cities and have attended UND for 3 years, so i'm a newer fan. It's kind of hard to have a "bandwagon" when you contend every year.

                                i defended "mr. Yale" because i dont think (and you've pretty much proved it) you have any idea what you're talking about.... i have no problem with trash talking but at least try and make sense about it.... if a maine or a vermont fan wants to start something with you about ndakota then feel free to question the integrity of their programs (although both those incidents were under different coaches and in maine's case 15 years ago) but why do it to a yale fan???... yes ndakota has won 7 national titles and yale hasn't won any... YOU GO TO NDAKOTA TO PLAY HOCKEY!!!! yale can't give athletic scholarships (although im sure theres some "grant" money thrown around) and is not a sign up school.... a ndakota fan should realize their team SHOULD beat a school like yale almost every time they play.

                                i understand that you're a new fan but it's not usually a good idea to challenge someone's knowledge of their own team when they don't know it themselves.... that's called being a hypocrite....anyways, i think i made my point and will let it go from here but i hope you learned something from all of this.

                                .....and btw, if it's any consolation, i do expect ndakota to beat yale and bc this weekend and get to detroit (i hope i'm wrong tho) because i think they're playing really well and will match up well w/ bc... this year
