The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.

Based on TonyTheTiger20's predictor, I think there's no way for the Gophers to drop past 4th in Pairwise. So yes the ceiling today would be WCHA champions, and the floor would be a home game in the 4-vs-5 NCAA tournament game.
Semifinals results:
Cornell 2 - Clarkson 1 (3OT)
Colgate 4 - St. Lawrence 2 (including one Colgate empty-netter)
On Saturday afternoon Cornell will host Colgate for the ECAC championship at 3:30 ET.
Meanwhile, in the PWR, Minnesota sits at 3rd. On Saturday afternoon they will play in the WCHA...
Interestingly the 4/5 game counts as a quarterfinals game, rather than as a first-round game. So the NCAA committee allows conference matchups there, and in 2022 it was an ECAC championship game rematch (Yale-Colgate).
I am enjoying experimenting with the predictor. Thanks for that, TTT20!
It looks like, after Clarkson's win today, the 8th-place team in NPI, St. Lawrence, and the 9th-place team in NPI, Clarkson, are numbered, vice versa, 9 and 8 on USCHO's Pairwise. I think this is because Clarkson wins a...
Advancing to the ECAC semifinals: 1 Cornell, 2 Colgate, 3 St. Lawrence, and 4 Clarkson. On Friday, Cornell will play Clarkson, and Colgate will play St. Lawrence, all at Lynah.
According to the Pairwise predictor, Clarkson could pass St. Lawrence, and move into 8th in the Pairwise, even if...
Quinnipiac pulled their goalie with about 5:15 left in the 3rd, down 2-1. They have now gone down 3-1 on a shot all the way down the ice by Anne Cherkowski, with about 2:30 left.
Game 3 in Quinnipiac at Clarkson this afternoon. Clarkson is up 2-0 after 2 periods, and the announcers are saying Clarkson is 57-1 when leading after 2 periods in the last two and a half years!
The Bulldogs lose a hard-fought game 2 to St. Lawrence 4-3 and end their season with a 16-13-3 record. I believe that they did not give up any empty-net goals all season, which is a small thing but shows they were good at staying in it when games were close.
True -- the OT felt grueling just to watch. I see Corinne Schroeder had 73 total saves against OSU (box).
Those 3 teams have a lot of history at OSU Ice Rink in the tournament.
One game down in each of the Quarterfinals series:
Yale 2 - SLU 3 (OT)
Quinnipiac 3 - Clarkson 1
Union 0 - Cornell 3
Princeton 2 - Colgate 5
Yale-St. Lawrence was the closest game yesterday score-wise. Yet Yale must now win 2 days in a row if they hope to keep their season going.
If Quinnipiac...
Quinnipiac takes game one, 3-1.
If St. Lawrence stays at 8th in the Pairwise, the winner of Quinnipiac-Clarkson will probably be 9th. This would give an ECAC matchup in the first round of the NCAA tournament. In this case I think that the committee would probably move the 9th Pairwise team...
I see that all 2-3 games at St. Lawrence this weekend will be at 2PM. According to the Yale Athletics release, Yale outshot St. Lawrence in its season series this year, despite losing two one-goal games. Perhaps we are due.
I like your chart, as well as the predictions for the WCHA tournament! I think that if the conference tournaments go according to chalk, the results I'm getting have Cornell 3rd overall (3 Cornell, 4 Minnesota, 5 Colgate, and the rest the way you have it). Things also may change a bit if the...
So far as I've noticed, teams will typically play a series of two non-conference games at one school, and then the next year (or 2), switch up who is hosting the match-up for another series. (So, this time a road series rather than a home series, or vice versa, against the same team.) This may...
Well, there was one upset! And it was Union over Brown. A close game, though - Union was ahead 1-0 most of the game and added an empty-netter in the waning seconds. Quinnipiac, Yale, Princeton, and Union advance. (RPI-Princeton was also close.)
In the next round, the quarters, Cornell will host...
I've read on the PWHL reddit that Mikyla Grant-Mentis of Montreal flipped a puck hard over the glass right around the final buzzer. I wasn't watching at that point in the game. The penalty was a misconduct but not a game misconduct (which is notated in the box score, for example when Rylind...
