and then some and then some and then some. Hopefully he doesn't get a big head and turn pro after this season.

Arch is gone as long as Pittsburgh has room for him. The one thing you have going for you is over the years Pittsburgh seems to have left guys around in college for quite a while. Hanowski stayed all 4 years, and Pittsburgh had his rights at the start of his senior season.

Mavs clinch home ice Saturday with:

Shoot-out win and losses by both UMD and Western Michigan.

Win and no better than a shoot-out win by both UMD and Western Michigan, if this happens plus Western gets shoot-out win Mavs clinch 3rd.



If North Dakota defeats SCSU tomorrow and the Mavs win, and SCSU and Mavs finish tied in points by both doing the same thing the final weekend tiebreakers are, if ND finishes with most points:

Western finishes 4th outright, SCSU is #2 seed.
Denver finishes 4th outright, Mavs are #2 seed.
UMD finishes 4th outright, SCSU is #2 seed.

Should Western and Denver finish tied for 4th with same number of league wins and their tie is broken first:
Denver would be the #4 seed unless Western sweeps UND. UNO would be #2.

Should UMD and Denver finish tied for 4th with same number of league wins and their tie is broken first:
Denver would be the # 4 seed. UNO would be #2.

Should UMD and Western finish tied for 4th SCSU is automatically the #2 seed.

Should UMD, Western and Denver all finish tied 4th with same number of league wins and their tie is broken first:

First tie vs. each other
Denver 4-0-1 currently with 1 game remaining vs. Western
Duluth 4-1-1
Western 1-6 currently with 1 game remaining vs. Denver

Western eliminated. Denver wins tie-break vs. Duluth and are #4 seed. UNO is #2 seed.

he got 2 more goals last night and now holds the school record for most goals in a season.

Colorado College fans had a big pregame thing at Goodnights last night, where me and Mrs. Red Cows usually eat, pregame. They jammed the place.

I think they probably wish they had picked another night for this after that game, which was the only real laugher UNO has had all season.

Well tonight's game was about the boring game I've ever almost slept through. Both teams were sluggish. Good for Mike Young on senior night. Don't overlook CC in the playoffs.

UNO's tunnel walk wins an ADDY Award:

For the uninitiated, this is the video that plays on the scoreboard just before UNO takes the ice. This version is low-res compared to what is seen in the arena. Sounds great in the arena with the volume pumped up.

Re: UNO '13-'14 Season Thread: Barnstorming Through a New League and Raising a New Ba

In today's new college hockey poll, I duly note that UNO got 6 votes this week in the poll (not that the polls matter, nor should UNO be ranked).

What I don't understand at all, though, is how Denver got 27 votes and is the next team out of the top 20. That's just flat-out nutty. They've been 2-5-1 in their last 8 games and are somebody UNO got 9 out 12 possible points against this season. Notwithstanding the fact they are the 6th place team in the NCHC. They are 26th in Pairwise and have a losing record in conference!

Screwy.

Pigs Fly.

UNO goalie Ryan Massa named NCHC Goalie of the Week:

http://www.nchchockey.com/news_artic...rrer_id=878553

In fairness to Massa, as the article says, he DID have a career weekend. And, he was FAR better Saturday night than on Friday night, even though he netted a shout-out on Friday. One of the few games in recent memory that a UNO goalie was really instrumental in a win.

Really. Can't believe I just wrote that.

.....and UNO defenseman Michael Young is the NCHC D-Man of the week, too.

Josh Archibald is the NCHC Player-of-the-Month:

http://www.nchchockey.com/news_artic...rrer_id=878553

He should also be the NCAA's Player-of-the-Month as well.

I have serious doubts there are any real challengers there, either. His month was so good that he worked his way into the Hobey discussion.

This will have some sphincters puckering in the Northland.

A WCCO (Minneapolis-CBS affiliate) look at UNO recruiting efforts in that state:

UNO shoots, they score!

Actually, I did post this in the Gopher thread and asked for and received some very informative ideas and opinions about this situation and why it might be.

Don't think many Gopher fans would trade our recruits for yours...but Blais has created an amazing franchise in NE and is one of the best NCAA coaches ever.

That's why he has the pull.

Nope! No puckering here. What bugs me is when Notre Dame grabs kids when their conference footprint isn't in this state. Although schools out east do the same it doesn't bother me. I guess its how it goes.
