Unfortunately it is looking like I will only be there in spirit... stupid 2:00 PM game time and all. Oh well. Hoping they make it through the regional and that my Terrier Pride Points are high enough for me to have a Frozen Four ticket bestowed upon me.

Re: BU 2014-15 season threat III - Jasmine gets to see us 4 more times
So I did a cursory rundown in the Northeast Regional thread of how many seeds move on to the Frozen Four. Basically, I think it's been pretty fair. By percentage, most of the teams that have gone to the F4 have been 1 seeds, followed by 2, and so on. No 4 seed before 2008 made it out of regionals.
I started with the first 16-team tournament
2014: 3 #1 seeds, 1 #4. WINNER #3 overall
2013: 2 #1 seeds, 2 #4. WINNER #15 overall (I think, Yale was #4 in the #2 seed bracket)
2012: 2 #1 seeds, 2 #2. WINNER #1 overall
2011: 1 #1 seed, 1 #2 seed, 2 #3 seeds. WINNER #3 in 1's bracket
2010: 3 #1 seed, 1 #4 seed. WINNER: #1 seed, 4th overall over all
2009: 1 #1 seed, 1 #3 seed, 2 #4 seed. WINNER: BU (pretty sure #1 overall)
2008: 2 #1 seeds, 1 #2 seed, 1 #4 seed. Winner #2 seed BC
2007: 0 #1 seed, 2 #2 seeds, 3 #3 seeds. Winner #3 MSU
2006: 1 #1 seed, 1 #2 seed, 2 #3 seeds. Winner #1 overall Wisconsin
2005: 3 #1 seeds, 1 #2 seed
2004: 2 #1 seeds, 2 #2 seeds. Winner was a 2 seed
2003: 3 #1 seeds, 1 #3 seed. Winner was 4th overall seed
So, only once has no No. 1 seed not advanced. Overall, 23 No. 1 seeds went to the Frozen Four (so about 48% of No. 1 seeds moved on).
10 No. 2 seeds moved on to the Frozen Four (21%)
9 No. 3 seeds moved on to the F4. (19%)
7 No. 4 seeds moved on to the F4, but all happened since 2008 (15%).
Note rounding errors.

This is great- we need some more Ahti interviews.

The one loss for a "5" was against Northeastern, right after the Beanpot. So BU wasn't at their best in that game. Plus, I don't think BU is losing 6-5 to Yale.

While this is a reasonable fear, I have to think that having OC backstopping them makes it unlikely. Beyond the team goals, he has a large personal stake in his performance in the tournament. Obviously, teams aren't going to avoid him if he (hockey gods forbid) he has a bad game, but a really good run could add a few $$$ to his contract. My expectation is that he plays as well as anyone in the tournament.

OC's good at making the stops, and less good at controlling the rebounds. He gets hurt when his D isn't blocking forwards from the puck or sweeping them away.

Your last visit to Manch I screamed "Hit him PT, he's soft!" whenever Paul Thompson was within 30 feet of Jason Lawrence. Other than missing the opportunity to do that, I am really looking forward to today. Good luck you guys. Go BU!

In their strongest period, BU just needs to score once for a new game.
