Northeastern Huskies 2018-19: New Breed, Old Snarl

Win or lose tomorrow, this team although not the most talented squad individually is collectively going into the tournament as a 2 seed and that gas never happened before!

Looking at the Pairwise predictor it appears NU is a 2 seed with a win tomorrow and a 3 seed with a loss.

Also NU was a 2 seed in 2009.

The difference between 2 and 3 seed is which color shirt they wear. I wan to win so they are champs, they are in NCAA, at what number doesn't really interest me, all the teams are good

PC is squarely on the bubble. If either BU or BC got/gets in (among other wild-cards) the Friars are out, never mind PC's superior body of work.
End-of-season AQ's are inequitably gifted. Pretty sure we agree on this.
Hell, I wouldn't even want Maine to steal a berth in that manner. It doesn't make any sense whatsoever to negate a RS for the sake of a gimmick PS tournament, if one employs any logic at all.
Define 'superior'. PC went 2-4-0 against BC this season, and when they controlled their destiny as far as getting into the dance, the #2 seed couldn't come up with their superior body of work and take down the #7 seed. If PC gets in at this point, that would be the epitome of backing into the dance.

BC on the other hand, if they happen to win the automatic qualifier, will have taken down the #1, #2 and #3 seeds in the tournament to get to get there.
That's not 'stealing' a berth, That's going out and kicking you in the face, slapping you up the backside of your head and taking the gawdam thing. Big difference there.
If it is of any comfort for you, and BC does 'steal it', you can take solace in that your team went 3-0-0 on the season against the Hockey East Champions. ;)

If BC doesn't take down #3 tonight, they have no business getting to the dance.
If they do win, they have earned the auto bid and do belong (as does Northeastern, as they have earned it over the course of the season).
That's my 2 cents on all of that. Peace, Out.

Sorry Nu fans for hijacking your thread, but he started it. ;)

Beanpot rematch tonight. May the best team win. Should be a barn burner.
Go Eagles!

Are you talking "overall" seed? According to USCHO's own reporting, NU already has a #1 seed locked up <a href="https://www.uscho.com/2019/03/23/bracketology-what-we-know-entering-conference-championship-saturday/." target="_blank" style="color: blue">Bracketology Blog</a> Since the other three teams are from the West (St. Cloud, Minnesota State and Minnesota-Duluth), they are guaranteed to be placed in a regional close by.

Not sure I even agree. See my post above. There is 100 times more incentive for BC. Period. NU has a #1 seed AND a regional in the East locked up. Only question is whether BC can play two near perfect games in a row. (although I get it that you're just being "snarky" again) :D
