NCHC Conference Tournament - Not a Lot of Drama Likely... So Let's Start Some in Here

I have promised myself to take the high road this week and carry on like the teams from the three lesser schools have a chance. Because it's the right thing to do, and because it's especially heartwarming to see how excited the people from the dog schools get thinking they could win.

No you have it wrong. The only team with no chance is UND. That's because since you have it all wrapped up, you are going to roll over in these games and mail it in, thus assuring that any wagerers get fleeced and that English bulldogs get perpetrated.

The Target Center was not built for hockey, it was built for hoops, but it works for hockey. The location is good. Lots of entertainment within walking distance, plenty of parking. I have heard that the puck bounces a little differently than it does on a standard rink though. Does anyone know what the capacity is there for hockey? I think its about 18,000 for hoops but I would imagine its less than that with a hockey rink down there instead of a court.

I believe it seats about 17,000. The floor is raised about five feet for hockey. I've worked the last two and will be there again this year. I'm looking forward to it, should be better in the next couple years too when the renovation is done.

Other than homer fans that see things in rose colored glasses, I don't think any NCHC fans this weekend can realistically expect two wins. Heck, this is arguably a much tougher tourney this year than any regional will be

Oh you couldn't be more wrong. SOMEBODY has to win two games this weekend. Oh wait, you meant "expect" two wins...

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....hockey. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.....Target Center built for hoops. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Watching hockey at the Target Center is just like watching hockey at the Bradley Center. Not comfortable, but not that bad. It could be worse.

SCSU has a shot if they can actually play in the first period. No offense UMD, but UND is more than likely going to win, unless you poisoned their food. Biddy, did you take care of that? ;)

Now for the real questions. Who is staying downtown? Where are the meetups? Who is paying my bar tab? :D
