Michigan Tech at Minnesota State 2/27-2/28: Who wants the MacNaughton Cup?

Re: Michigan Tech at Minnesota State 2/27-2/28: Who wants the MacNaughton Cup?

Hahaha I'm loving this!! Easiest way to get WCHA teams worked up is to tell them the truth.

Haha to say the tech and Mankato are the two best is just beyond ridiculous!! UND, Duluth, Omaha, Miami, and The clouds are all better teams this year.. They are all just playing each other in a real conference and someone has to lose. Tech and Mankatos schedule is soft as could be, yes they are good but don't think for a second that if any of the NCHC teams where in the WHCA they wouldn't be running the train on every school in it. I would say that after all those teams it might be Mankato then bostonU then either Minnesota Michigan or tech.. But if it makes you guys feel better, keep dreaming!!

Thank you for your contribution to the message board, because nothing classes up the forum as qwikly as run-away train like run-on sentences, random pun'ctuati'on!!? (((or lack there of in "you're" posts',))) but we certainly appreciate yOU letting us know where the rest of the Hawkkee world stands relative to the Wioux? because we had know idea the known universe revolved around gRand 4-ks but again thank-ewe for posting and we look forward to seeing you in the Frozen Fore, assuming you can get past Robert Morris, gosh knows you have enough practice beeting bottom feeder teams this year so you certainly should at least get past them, just be sure too play all the way two the ffinal horn, it would be a shame to let down and loose a game at the last 2nd.

Best regards and thanks for making sure I don't always have to be the one to supply the humor around here. Maybe someday UND will play important games of their own and they you will have a place to type your thoughts once again. That is assuming you can put down the PBR long enough to start your own thread...

PS Are you the one on the left or the right? Stay classy ND and try to use the following guideline as you make your way through life: IQ+GPA > BAC*100.

I think you need the University's permission to show the official Homecoming Court pictures. Also, if you're going to communicate with that guy, you need to use way more exclamation points.

I'm just quoting this so everyone can see this picture again... That is all
 
Re: Michigan Tech at Minnesota State 2/27-2/28: Who wants the MacNaughton Cup?

Since many of these teams have never played let's just look at the various rankings:

TEAM---AVE----RPI----PWR----KRACH--USHSHO1-USHSHO2
MSU------1.2------1-------1---------2----------1------------1-----
UMD------3.6------4-------3---------4----------3------------4-----
UND------3.6------2-------2---------1----------7------------6-----
MTU------4.0------3-------5---------3----------4------------5-----
BU-------5.0------6-------7---------8----------2------------2-----
Mia-------5.4------5-------4---------5----------5------------8-----
UNO------6.2------8-------8---------6----------6------------3-----
DU-------7.8------7-------6---------7----------10-----------9-----
BC-------10.2-----9-------9--------10---------13----------10----
BGSU-----11.2----13------13-------11---------12-----------7----
Min------11.4----11------10-------13----------8-----------15----
PC-------12.9----12-----11.5------14---------15-----------12----
QU-------13.5----10-----11.5------12---------23-----------11----
SCSU-----14.4----15------14--------9---------16-----------18----
Yale------16.8----14------15-------17---------18-----------20----


By any measure, MSU and MTU are top 5 teams in the country. UMD and UND are also right there but to say that because the NCHC is beating up on each other, that that is holding them back is laughable...if anything under the current system, the fact that so many series end in splits is exactly why the NCHC teams are ranked so highly because of the QWB.

Note: the RPI I chose was without QWB since to me, that part only exists to be incorporated into PWR and isn't truly part of RPI.

In fairness to those 2, maybe they're just looking down to try to read the crawl on the bottom of the screen. When it's about an athlete in legal trouble, there's a 40% chance it's a teammate.

Ok, I'm done now. Back to talking about the series involving the #1 and #5 teams in the Pairwise.

There's no reason to actually get worked up over someone not smart enough to tie his own shoes. A much better choice is to make fun of the fool. I mean, anyone dumb enough to call himself Sioux-per Drunk really isn't firing on all cylinders.

Yup, a whole season comes down to how MSU did on a long trip to UA_. If I'm not mistaken, UND left the WCHA so they wouldn't have to make those long trips anymore...because they were too tough for them to even try.

I assume you mean the tradition of actually making the NCAA tournament. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: Michigan Tech at Minnesota State 2/27-2/28: Who wants the MacNaughton Cup?

Back to the series between the 2 best teams in the country. Or more specifically, plans for attending this weekend.

My wife and I are planning on driving down for Saturday only. We were going to do the whole weekend, or at least stay for Saturday night, but now we're going to drive down and drive home after the game. Trying to save some money for the expensive regional weekend coming up. If anyone is planning on driving down on Saturday, we're thinking about visiting the Schell's brewery on the way, if anyone wants join us. Probably will go out for a drink or 2 postgame before heading home again.
 
Re: Michigan Tech at Minnesota State 2/27-2/28: Who wants the MacNaughton Cup?

According to the mavericks website, Saturday will be a 'white out', and they will be giving away 5000 towels.
