    He must be counting the differential on the doom field in the equation with the Framistan effect when time folding occurs.

      Every team with the exception of Denver, Miami, UW, UND, SCSU, CB, and Bemidji has a lower floor to fall to than Yale. Looks like they will most likely be in the tournament as a 3 seed. Now if we just had our best player for the tournament I would like our chances a lot more

          Should he have sorted it alphabetically? By first letter of school name? Maybe by the average of the min/max number?

          It's just an informative tool of scenarios that he found. It's not that hard to find the team you're looking for on it.
          I like chocolate milk and Kate Beckinsale and Lauren Graham and Brooke Burke and Elisha Cuthbert and Eva Longoria.

            It's in the order of the rankings of teams under the current KRACH

            http://siouxsports.com/hockey/rankings/krach/
            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                While Broc has the best numbers on the team I think having watched Yale are year, Sean was the most integral member. If you look at big games, ECAC Championship win over Cornell, this year's wins over Cornell, Badger Tournament, it was Sean who led the way. As a senior, 3 time all-ECAC first team player, and leader of Yale's powerplay, losing Sean hurt us a lot more than I thought it would against Brown.
                We finally get to see Blase play, he does what we say he can do- ie. be solid with a >.900 save percentage and yet we loose to Brown 1-0 in the deciding game. It's a lot easier to allow the current Yale squad to line up slap-shots inside the blue-line and block them when that slapper isn't coming off Backman's stick.

                            Worcester has an airport, but it's very small and is mostly for private planes I believe. Flying into Logan and renting a car would be your best bet. If you don't wanna rent a car, you could take the T (subway) to Boston's South Station and then take the commuter rail to downtown Worcester. The arena's within walking distance of the train station, as are several hotels.
                            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
