Yale also outshot that Wisco team 42-22 at Wisco. If Yale still had Backman, I would think they would have the power to not only beat Nodak, but to get to the frozen four. The playoffs may of proved that Backman is the driving force of this team.

Yale will also need to get better goaltending if it wants any shot in even giving Nodak a game.

BC fans on this board though are looking a little cocky, you guys have the best forwards I've seen in college hockey, but goaltending seems to escape your team as well at times.

I think this may be a tough regional. He'll probably stick with Muse but Milner is a solid backup if York decides to go with him.

Yale is going to be punked in the face so hard it's going to be funny. I give Alaska a better chance of winning this regional than Yale.

It's this type of statement that will make Yale winning the game all the better, get past the Nanooks first Southie. The greatest threat to the two top seeds is looking past the supposed patsies.

Agreed. BC and UND are favored to win, but if they fail to prepare for their games on Saturday, neither will be playing on Sunday.

FYI to all the fans going to the games in the NE Region, if you want some food at the game you better buy it in the first period. They will run out fast with all the 400 lb fat *** Sue fans at the game. As far as beer goes, you probably have until about 5 mins into the first period before those hicks suck the place dry. Just a friendly heads up.

Alaska is going to have a long day of travel. Depending on the aircraft they use, they might be able to do without the Chicago stop.*****http://www.chrisvanveen.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/map1.jpg******

I was under the impression that they would fly to Minneapolis first...and then to Boston. Not sure though...

I didn't realize Yale still had a hockey team.

Didn't Alaska upset BC a long time ago when Ceglaski was the BC coach during a playoff series?
