Re: Bottom-feeders 2016-17
And let's see... in the Futile Four, we have an independent, ECAC, Hockey East, and the B1G.
I would love to do a full write up of the "championship," but I'm not very good at comedy writing.

Are we sure about this one? Or is this something that you're reading through the pigeon poop smear?

Huntsville really didn't want another appearance in the Futile Four. A recap of this game says UAH and Sparty were tied at 0-0 going into the third period, and Huntsville decided to pull the goalie early.
Re: Bottom-feeders 2016-17
Without a coach, Sparty probably left their sticks in the locker room.

Actually, this was the Jackman, ME regional. They left their sticks in the woods.

As for scores for the Futile Four... I have no clue when they will be posted. Probably before that "other" tournament has theirs.

Re: Bottom-feeders 2016-17
I'm still disappointed that my team didn't make the futile four. We finally win a game in OT against a team that we may be getting our next head coach from.
Was looking forward to playing Michigan St in a battle of 2 teams without a HC. Oh well, half the guys probably don't have a passport anyway...

I forget who scored the winner for RPI, but maybe he forgot that he was supposed to lose the game?

I hear Tom Anastos will be referee for the final, and will be bringing a live chicken to sacrifice.

Re: Bottom-feeders 2016-17
Well... for the Futile Four, we can have ludicrous stuff happen... but someone would have to help write it. So far we have...
Tom Anastos as the referee, with Walt Kyle and Seth Appert as linesmen for all 3 games.
John Focke (color) and Ashley Scharge (PBP) doing the radio broadcast. These two were notorious for mispronouncing names and falling behind the play while covering NMU games.
And it's in Mexico, where ANYTHING could happen.

Scores should be up by Thursday. Still would like some help doing a write-up of the final game, though.

Futile 4, Semifinal 1:
In Arizona State vs. Brown, two teams that really didn't plan on making it this far... they tried not to suck. Arizona State pulled their goalie in the first period, only to be met by Brown pulling theirs. Goal after goal was traded, and it was clear that Tom Anastos really wasn't paying attention. He blew several calls, and at about midway through the third, he disappeared into the tunnel, and came back out with a 12 pack of Dos Equis and a bottle opener. He waved Walt Kyle and Seth Appert down to him over by the Brown bench, and the three former coaches just watched the game go by as they drank their beer. Then Walt Kyle went to the tunnel, and came back with some popcorn. Finally, late in the third as the score was tied 7-7, Arizona State got clear on a breakaway, and potted the game winner beyond the outstretched stick of a Brown defenseman.
Final Score: Arizona State 8- Brown 7. Brown advances to "title" game.
Futile Four, Semifinal 2:
In Michigan State vs. UMass, game got off to a rough start. Michigan State refused to come out, until Tom Anastos, drunk as hell from the previous game, went back to coax his old team out onto the ice. Once Michigan State came onto the ice, Anastos gathered everyone in a circle at center ice, and produced a live chicken and a chef's knife. It wasn't a clean sacrifice, as he hacked the chicken to death. He put the knife on the MSU bench, and then made both teams skate through chicken entrails. And the chicken guts came into play. UMass brought the puck up ice, only to run into gizzards. Michigan State's leading scorer THOUGHT he had the puck, but it was chicken stomach. He ended up firing it into the UMass bench, once he realized what it was. And Anastos tried to help his old team win. He tried checking UMass players, he purposely let MSU through on offsides calls, he even tried standing next to the MSU goalie. Seth Appert, not as drunk as Anastos, had to pull Tom into the corner to keep him from interfering in the game. But even with the chicken entrails, both teams really sucked. Finally, with about 3 seconds left in the third and the score tied at 0-0, Michigan State's goalie inexplicably left his crease, yelled "aw, f-ck it," as he skated away... and UMass scored a winner from center ice.
Final Score: UMass 1- Michigan State 0
The final is set: Brown vs. Michigan State
Anastos is set to referee the final, too. Will he try and help his old team again? Will Michigan State's goalie come back? Or will they put a potted plant out there instead? And will Focke and Scharge put the Natty down long enough to remember they're supposed to be calling a game?
