The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways.
Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar.
We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
Stout is, if everything goes the way we think it will go, the biggest loser in all of this.
Congrats, you get the #5 seed, here's the #8 seed in Round 1 and then a potential trip to NY for the quarters. Brutal draw
Slight updates to the NPI overnight put Salve and Aurora ahead of St. Norbert, which changes the West outlook.
CNE: Endicott (2)
Little East: Norwich (14)
MAC: Neumann (27)
MASCAC: Anna Maria (20)
MIAC: Saint Johns (17)

WHAT A DAY. Lots of movement, NESCAC madness, Adrian was out and then in and now looking like they're out again, Utica jumps into the Top 4 to seemingly have a path to play all NCAA games at the Aud, and Salve Regina somehow is a big winner today...
Two scenarios below for the two NESCAC...
UPSET IN THE NESCAC!
Williams takes down Hamilton 5-4 in OT
Bowdoin moves into the AQ spot in the NESCAC, Hamilton will move into an at-large, but for now, that's the only change
Just don't want this to get lost in another thread, but tickets are on sale now for the Semis and Finals
$25 for each individual game, or $40 for a 3-game pass

The best day will be when we get to 16 teams and can do a D1-esque tournament. I wish we had a way to make the conferences a little bigger and lessen the amount of auto-bids, but that's probably a pipe dream.
If you had 16 teams this year, you add Adrian and St. Norbert to the at-large list and...
Honestly, seeing that no result has really moved Salve Regina, I don't think Adrian will be on the right side of things come Selection Sunday.
And if St. Norbert wins, Aurora falling below the cutline also becomes a potential outcome
Fun fact, last year's conference tournaments featured just 3 matchups between the #1 and #2 seeds in their conference championships
This year: At least 6, maybe 7 (insert 6-7 joke here)
We are just 12 games away from the bracket being revealed, and we've got a few shakeups. St. Norbert is in, Adrian is out, UW-Stout has a Round 1 home game, and with a lack of upsets, there's so much to play for on the bubble on Championship Saturday

Just a simple flip in Home/Away between Utica and Salve, but the structure is the same. A lot of opportunity for movement these next two weeks though
CNE: UNE (4)
Little East: Norwich (16)
MAC: Neumann (32)
MASCAC: Anna Maria (25)
MIAC: Saint John’s (21)
NCHA: Adrian (5)
NESCAC: Hamilton (2)...
Usually start this earlier but there's no better time than now as we approach Semifinal Saturday:
CNE:
Semifinals:
#5 Nichols - 0 @ #1 UNE - 10
#3 Suffolk - 1 @ #2 Endicott - 4
Final:
#2 Endicott @ #1 UNE - 3/7, 7 PM ET
Little East:
Semifinals:
#5 UMass Boston - 0 @ #1 Norwich - 6
#3...
Going into the postseason for most conferences, here's where we stand. Some very good potential QF matchups in my opinion:
CNE: UNE (4)
Little East: Norwich (16)
MAC: Neumann (32)
MASCAC: Anna Maria (25)
MIAC: Saint John’s (21)
NCHA: Adrian (5)
NESCAC: Hamilton (2)
SUNYAC: Hobart (1)

This is a fun one because you have two West teams in Adrian and Aurora who haven't earned byes, and the NCAA looking like they are going to uphold that, so there's 3 ways I could figure out that the bracket could go, depending on how many flights they are willing to do
CNE: UNE (7)
