Amazing how all these better teams are home watching.

Uh, all I said is that BU/PC are better than any ECAC team that DIDN'T make the tourney. And right now, both are better than Yale too. Lowell is better than Qunnipiac and Union. Just stop with saying the ECAC was better than Hockey East. Union very well may beat BC, but Hockey East was once again a better league.

BC's worst team in 15 years, Canisius, two ECAC teams. Still a good chance BC goes 1 and done here.

Come on now, at least this team made the tourney compared to the two years they missed it. I do think you're being a little too harsh. Certainly not a great team, but the competition isn't at the best level either. I have a lot of respect for Union, they do have a lot of talent. I think the winner will win the next day. It's a toss-up in my book, but better than being a definitive underdog in another matchup. I do enjoy seeing Hockey East fans line up to pounce if BC loses when they know just like we do that this isn't your typical BC team. For this year's edition, there's no shame in losing to Union (unless it's another debacle like Friday night).

This is one of those 'That's-Why-They-Play-The-Games' tournaments. I can see either outcome: BC waltzes to Pittsburgh, or they lick their wounds Easter morning.

I think Harvard, the last place team in the ECAC beat BU twice? 6-5 and 7-4?
Dartmouth beat New Hampshire
Yale tied BC
Colgate beat UMASS twice
Let me research this some more .... we had some wins but I think you are right.

Hockey East was 17-13-5 against ECAC teams accoring to HEA website: http://www.hockeyeastonline.com/men/against.php

Wow...you guys got a free pass to Pittsburgh, didnt ya? Talk about a cakewalk bracket.

Tough thing now however is if hey don't make the final four it will rival the current top New England college epic failure that bc football currently holds when they blew a season finale home game vs Syracuse to blow their only/best shot at a BCS game. (Close 2nd is the last minutes melt down vs the tiny goalie led Sparty in the national final)

Certainly will make this weekend interesting
