    20. Providence (19)
    21. Alaska-Anchorage (22)
    22. Notre Dame (25)

    Awarding automatic bids to the last place teams from each conference, and eliminating teams with losing percentages below .560, gives us the field:

    1. AIC (AH auto)
    2. UConn
    3. Bentley
    4. Holy Cross
    5. Army
    6. Clarkson (ECAC auto)
    7. Bowling Green
    8. Mich Tech (Wcha auto)
    9. Brown
    10. Harvard
    11. Dartmouth
    12. Alab-Hunts (CHA auto)
    13. Niagara
    14. Robt Morris
    16. West Mich (CCHA auto)
    17. Providence (HEA auto)
    ******BUBBLE)*********
    15. Princeton
    18. Alaska-Anchorage
    19. Notre Dame
    Princeton gets swept by Hahvahd, but Hahvahd makes the BFB and Princeton is on the outside looking in!? Eastern Bias at its finest...

      Surely UConn can no long be a 1 seed after that amazing display of skill in the AHA first round game!
      Let's go Terriers!

      It hasn't taken me long to realize, everybody here knows a lot more than me about college hockey...

        I'm confused as to why Holy Cross would be placed in Saugus. They are in Massachusetts - wouldn't it be better for the committee to place them someplace further away?

          Seeing as how all four teams are in southern/central New England, you don't have too much of a choice.

            Boy, Brown didn't do themselves any favors this weekend. Two years in a row they've won a playoff series. IIRC, it cost them a No. 1 seed last year. Might keep them out of the BFB all together this year.
            Places I've seen a college hockey game: Agganis Arena, Alfond Arena, Bright Center, Consol Energy Center, Conte Forum, DCU Center, Fenway Park, Gutterson Fieldhouse, Houston Field House, Lawler Arena, Madison Square Garden, Matthews Arena, Mullins Center, Schneider Arena, Scottrade Center, Sears Centre, Tampa Bay Times Forum, TD Bank Sports Center, TD Garden, Tsongas Center, Tully Forum, Verizon Center, Verizon Wireless Arena, Walter Brown Arena, Wells Fargo Center, Whittemore Center

              Maybe an amendment to the rule could help fix this problem. I'm thinking that the committee requires any team that has to play within 2 states of their home state practice in China for the week leading up to the tourney games. This way they will get to experience both the joy of jet lag and eating dogs.
              Having a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

                    Just had an awesome thought, perhaps there might be some souvenir opportunities. I can see the t-shirt now, "I went to the 2010 Futile 4, and all I got was this lousy cold sore (I hope)"

                          uh ... this tournament uses a Zamboni?

                          this Keystone Lake should be under consideration for a venue next year. think how fun if the games were played while the players were breaking through the ice!

                            I imagine it's done on purpose, but the Eastern regional is in Massena, not Messena.

                            My opinion would be that all regionals (and of course the FF) would be spelled incorrectly on purpose to avoid the accidental attendee.
