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

Based off media that was there, they were very much impressed with UWRF's hosting ability, and it obviously helped having two local teams in it with big fanbases. Amherst traveled pretty well for an east team too. Middlebury's turnout was very disappointing.
I feel that predetermined sites...
Great weekend of hockey. Watching Friday’s semifinals showed four very deserving teams. But holy smokes were those games completely different styles. I was wildly impressed with Augsburg’s skating ability. I knew they were good, but they almost kept up with them. Amherst looked so slow compared...
21 (9G/12A) points when they voted. This one really shocked me. Felt like a pity vote bc they’re in it this year. When GAC lost to undefeated Middlebury in OT they had 4 legit forward options and a goalie snubbed.
Also, Lewis was robbed.
For those wondering about stats:

All American teams are out:
https://www.ahcahockey.com/news/2425/0327w3aa.php
Pretty drastic shift: as the East now was given 20 All-Americans, with the West getting just 12. I’m shocked to see Emily Cronkite on the list, as this was her worst year at Augsburg statistically by quite a bit. I...
Couple big names in the portal:
-Tia Lascelle is the big ticket item from Adrian. Very accomplished, and an All-American candidate in her junior season, tallying 33 points
-Dubuque's goalie, Savannah Wuitschick performed well given what she was up against nightly. (Eau Claire and Gustavus...
Is this league getting the automatic bid right away? I know they have to wait on the women's side, but I was wondering if they have to wait depending on the full-time members?
Also, if I’m St. Norbert and Adrian, can they get their incredibly generous donors to fund some of their NCHA counterparts?
NCHA desperately needs depth to test the big dogs THROUGHOUT the season. They’re just not nearly as battle-tested as other powers in the sport. playing a bunch of club...
River Falls is so damn good. They’ve dominated play against every team I’ve seen them play outside of Augsburg and GAC.
Bailey Olson is incredible and she was their 3rd line center last year. All of a sudden, Laura Hurd winner.
Very similar to McCollins from last year in that she really wasn’t...
From when I watched SNC, they were dominating lesser teams, and I wouldn't say they were grinding it out by any means. They were much more skilled than the rest of their league.
And they looked like the better team when I watched them vs. Endicott if I'm being honest. They also really went...
I think I know which player you're talking about. She missed the net from those angles I think every time but one.
But stylistically, I agree with you on GAC's play. This is a completely different team than the ones of years past. So, so, so much less talent across the board imo, and they...
Goalies are the best players on both teams imo. Augsburg's is the best on that team by a mile. Stepan has a wicked shot, but doesn't play a ton of defense, despite her award. lol
WIAC is screwed. That league minus Northland is way too competitive to get an at-large most years.
NCHA schedules will be very full if Beloit is member #11.
A Norbert/Adrian schedule with only 5 NC games leaves much less interconference play, which is bad for the sport and horrendous for...
Yeah I can't agree with this. Gustavus was in total control from start to finish. Goalies matter. Credit to Aitken for finding one.
However, I can get behind the Plattsburgh game being closer than the shots indicated, as Elmira was totally comfortable keeping Plattsburgh on the outside, and...
I watched this one too. Too call it competitive was a major stretch though. SNC was dominated for large portions of the game, and truthfully, I didn't think the shots were off at all. They kept dumping the puck down the ice wide of the net and she would come out and play it. It happened like...
Should be a very intriguing First Round
Early thoughts:
1. St. Norbert-Gustavus seems like the game of the First Round. In a season where the Green Knights have finally gotten over the hump in so many ways, can they do it again against one of the sport's powers? Gustavus looked very good in...
Believe it's Norbert @ GAC, no?
-Solid bracket overall. I kind of wanted to see Middlebury/Amherst on different sides of the bracket to see if they could get to a title game against one another. But this ain't bad.
-Plattsburgh makes 13th consecutive tournament
-River Falls makes its 6th in...
D3HN has this bracket setup projected, which makes sense to me.
Knowing this committee and how unserious they seem to take it, I’d bet they go Norbert-Gustavus winner at River Falls.
I think the entire sport would cease to exist if those two programs don’t play a quarterfinal game. Which would...
