    It will be interesting to see how Michigan's attack stands up against teams that play solid Defense. Nobody in the Big Ten finished in the top half in the country in Team Defense. In contrast, Notre Dame finished 14th, Northeastern finished 20th, and North Dakota 3rd. That being said, the CCM line might just be the best line in college hockey, and if North Dakota and Michigan both advance, high-powered top lines have given the Sioux fits this season.
    Our goalie sucks. Michigan and St. Cloud ST. are the bomb.

      UND doesn't travel, they have fans that live EVERYWHERE. EVERY. WHERE.

        Yeah, really. I was told by UND fans that the first choice they face is: move to MPLS, or move to Denver. They are transplants, no ripping them in that regard. Just better job markets.
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

            Threeve.

            They were vastly outnumbered this weekend, although that is not saying much.

                UND is a really good school and their graduates get jobs. However, like you said, its not in Fargo-Grand Forks.

                  I am aware, and I have a few friends who went there. Currently, my 3 closest UND friends live in Denver, Indianapolis, and Minneapolis right now (2 are in aviation, no surprise)

                    They couldnt even fill half of Joe Louis for the CCHA tournament. How many fans are going to show up in Cincy?

                        There were about 4K tonight total. I'd say 3500 were MN fans. Going pessimistic, 3K were MN fans, 500 MI fans, 500 anti-MN fans.

                        There were also some ticket shenanigans from last night that might have affected attendance. Either way: B1G Mistake.

                          Yes, clearly I am the moron who doesnt recognize the mathematical value of threeve. Is it greater or less than fifty-leven?

                            If the committee does what it is supposed to do Quinnipiac will be in Worcester. We have known about the "a flight is a flight" criteria but have never heard "a drive is a drive."

                            Worcester: 1 Quinnipiac vs RIT, Lowell vs Yale
                            Albany: 4 Providence vs Duluth, Boston College vs Harvard
                            Cincinnati: 3 North Dakota vs Northeastern, Michigan vs Notre Dame
                            St Paul: 2 St Cloud vs Ferris State, Denver vs Boston University

                            Meant to post this at midnight and it got caught in my phone and never posted. Anyway, my bracket...

                              Playing Devil's Advocate here, but what if you sent the Quinnipiac bracket to Albany and the Providence bracket to Worcester?

                              Would you have better attendance - especially @ Worcester?

                                Can Lowell vs Yale (Worcester) be swapped with Boston College vs Harvard (Albany)?
