Re: Hockey East: 2019/20 season is Joe Bertagna's last as commish
I don't get into the weeds with the analysis but this is what I have:
Pts Max Possible end rank
-----------------------HOME ICE--------------------------------
------------------------Playoffs----------------------------------
UMA 24 34 1-9
UML 22 34 1-9
BC 22 36 1-9
BU 21 33 1-10
UM 20 30 1-10
UC 20 32 1-10
NU 19 33 1-10
UNH 19 29 1-10
PC 19 29 1-10
MC 13 21 4-11
------------------------OUT----------------------------------------
UVM 3 15 10-11
For instance, UMA probably can't finish 9th given the match ups of the teams below there probably aren't enough points to go around, I'm too lazy to do that much work. So instead, I base my possibilities strictly on each team's current points and maximum possible points.
I miss that old post, I forget who used to do it.

This time of the season someone used to run weekly probabilities of HEA end of regular season standings. With only 5 points separating one through nine, this end season's probabilities would be interesting to see.

Mariucci (UMn) to National Hockey Center (SCSU) is 90 minutes and that's the closest to Evil Goldie's house.
90 minutes indeed.

Originally posted by BC/HE View PostLowell from Boston is ok but Lowell to Providence is too long even by car so that is where Lowell is over an hour away. Boston to Worcester and Worcester to Providence are within the hour if going by car but you can still go by train and use public transportation if you want a long ride and bus from Worcester to Providence is under an hour too. This is turning out way more complicated than intended. Maybe we should just petition the NCAA for a 4 team walking league.
Also, I don’t believe any public transit buses run between Boston and Worcester, so you would have to take the train. BTW, BU used to take the train to UNH in the thirties. One year the game ended in a tie without overtime as BU had to catch the train back to Boston.

Originally posted by Sean Pickett View PostI'm confused how Holy Cross qualifies under the 1 hour travel limit.
And you may joke about it, but back when everyone played at Boston Arena I recall reading that BU got to the rink by public transportation. I believe BC and Harvard did likewise.

Originally posted by Sean Pickett View PostIf a breakup occurred I see the 4 original non-America East teams (BU, BC, NU, PC) joining with UMass and UConn to form a new Hockey East. However, the article on CHN implies that the idea of being part of America East was not well received and not likely to happen.Sean

Originally posted by Drew S. View PostI don’t think the social media matters that much. To me the much bigger issue is the scheduling. It’s gone completely to hell in the last 10 years and doesn’t show any signs of getting better. Pretty hard to understand why they would make Northeastern travel to Maine in the weekend between beanpot games.

I still don't get why America East would even be interested in this. It's worth the hassle of being in charge of another sport?
