2011 Frozen Four Thread - Minnesota Duluth - Notre Dame - North Dakota - Michigan

Exactly how little do you need your little guys to be?

That's usually how I choose how to root for. The past few years we've had Bemidji and RIT which have been nice. This year's nice stories, Merrimack and WMU, were both bounced on annoying goals in OT, which is part of why I am so cranky about this.

UMD is a major conference team that both was in the FF and had a Hobey winner in the last ten years. I'm pretty ambivalent, and they are the least unlikeable team to me, so I will probably root for them.

Depends on how one defines little as well. Notre Dame has the smallest enrollment.

But Michigan is "The victors of the west!".

Not the song again!!!

Eastern Standard Time, huh? So it is the same time as CDT, which we are currently on, then. *pushes up thicker glasses*

I . . . I'm out-nerded.

Hello! UMD IS the little guy! A great history despite no national championships. Lost in FOUR overtimes to Bowling Green in the 1984 championship game. We were one unlucky and crazy bounce on the boards from winning from winning that game.

Plus we have almost the same colors (metallic gold isn't quite gold)

Exactly how little do you need your little guys to be?

How do you guys define little? You play in a major conference and have over 10,000 students! To be technical, Notre Dame is the smallest school, by enrollment, in the Frozen Four this year.

Please. We'd break whiskey bottles and cut up the entire UMAAAA. Plus we'd have our alumni pilots drop bombs on the UMAAAA. Not Geist though. I don't trust him.

Speaking of the UMAAAA, will UMAA be sending the UMAAAB to play to St. Paul? Or will we get to experience the real UMAA band play one song?

If only there was a Michigan alum that had experience with bombing universities and airplanes...

We'd have our astronauts take your pilots into outer-space and then drop them off...

It's a good thing Purdue only plays club hockey because they'd win the astronaut argument with UM by a fairly wide margin.

I'll co-sign that. Brent is not a pilot but take him too.

Astronauts are overrated.

It will be interesting to see if UMD gets any credit yet... I mean we did beat the "#1" team, but I like staying under the radar.

You did it only once and that was way back in early November...we exacted our revenge on Dec. 30th remember?

Yeah, congrats on winning the Special Olympics Region. True accomplishment.
