2011 Frozen Four Thread - Minnesota Duluth - Notre Dame - North Dakota - Michigan

Re: 2011 Frozen Four Thread - Minnesota Duluth - Notre Dame - North Dakota - Michigan

It will be interesting to see if UMD gets any credit yet... I mean we did beat the "#1" team, but I like staying under the radar.

This will by my first frozen 4 so I'm hoping for some good games! I would love to see a UMD vs. Sioux championship!

That's usually how I choose how to root for. The past few years we've had Bemidji and RIT which have been nice. This year's nice stories, Merrimack and WMU, were both bounced on annoying goals in OT, which is part of why I am so cranky about this.

UMD is a major conference team that both was in the FF and had a Hobey winner in the last ten years. I'm pretty ambivalent, and they are the least unlikeable team to me, so I will probably root for them.

I don't like thinking about this the same way but I completely agree. The one year I actually score a ticket to the game this happens? I really hate rooting against teams so who can I root for? Duluth I guess... or maybe I could bring myself to root for Notre Dame but I'll have to do a little soul searching before I commit to that.

I wonder if it's ok to root for the roof to collapse during the NoDak Michigan game?

No, there's a lot of neutral fans there. I'd suggest rooting for the pit of snakes to get the coaches and/or teams, that way you avoid injury to the innocent spectators.

Then Samuel L. Jackson can bust in and say, "I have had it with the *******ing snakes on this ********ing ice!"

You can't make this stuff up.

It's like some of you Easterners think there's only 13 colonies and the Articles of Confederation were just ratified.

What, we're not using the Articles of Confederation anymore?! :D

Best of luck to the four teams. I would not be surprised to see a UMD-UND finale.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four Thread - Minnesota Duluth - Notre Dame - North Dakota - Michigan

I'm hoping the refs will let the teams play more then they have at least from our region. And it will be exciting to watch Anders Lee play at the X again I haven't seen him since the state tourney a few years ago.
 
Re: 2011 Frozen Four Thread - Minnesota Duluth - Notre Dame - North Dakota - Michigan

Records against each other so far this year:

North Dakota vs University of Minnesota Duluth: In Grand Forks: Won 4-2 Lost 3-2 in OT; In Duluth: Won 5-0. Overall North Dakota leads 2-1
North Dakota vs Notre Dame: In Grand Forks: Won 6-3 Tied 2-2 in OT. Overall North Dakota leads 1-0-1
North Dakota has not played Michigan.

Duluth did not play Michigan or Notre Dame

Michigan vs Notre Dame: At Michigan: Lost 3-1 Won 5-3; In the CCHA tourney Won 4-2 Overall Michigan leads 2-1

I like that in the semifinals the teams have not played each other so you have no idea what to expect. It should be a lot of fun and
I hate waiting almost two weeks until they play again.

No, I like the Xcel too much. I'm just going with the Ebola outbreak getting both locker rooms and most of the fans.:)

But Michigan is "The victors of the west!". South Bend is further west than A2.:cool:

See! This is why we play the fight song so much. We have trolls like UMICH that still don't know the words. I just called Revelli Hall and told them to play The Victors an extra dozen times each period until UMICH learns it correctly.
