Kinda doubt there will be a return trip at all with AHC teams, which is sad

I read that Lowell will be the first Hockey East team ever to play AIC in their home rink later this season. Apparently even Amherst won't go there.

Re: pairwise -- post jan 8th

sure, happy to repeat if you like.
Weasels just love bringing Atlantic teams into Yost. should I repeat x5 times? ;-)
of course, AIC and co. are what you get when you're offering craptastic 2-for-1 deals. we understand.

This coming from the program that gives you two ranked teams on their schedule the whole season- #18 Minn State and #20 MTU.

Not true. Michigan played at RIT two seasons ago.

They played that game at Blue Cross, not on campus. RIT sells out Blue Cross every year for the Homecoming game.
and of course, since then there have been 7 Atlantic games at Yost without a single return visit.
afraid it's true--no return trips with AIC, Mercyhurst, Niagara, and RMU--sad.
But maybe when the Pizza AD's scheduling expires, the new AD will get wise and dump the 2-for-0 garbage.

Since you have such a hard-on for the Wolverines, you make the call to Hackett and ask him.

In the meantime, I'd ask your AD why your program's SOS is so bad this season- playing Canisius and RIT on the road is honorable, good for you. Like I said, you point to our scheduling AHL teams but fail to see the big picture about your own schedule versus the remainder of ours.

How bout you just take a walk to Fricker's, have a few beverages and call it a night.

The fact you're still using ahl is extremely humorous.

EZAZ has the #1,#4 and #5 ranked pairwise teams.

Stunning since that rink is worse than the old Meriimack setup

Doesn't matter.

Apparently we're letting 3&4 seeds win the tournament these days..................

So we once again have proof of what a poor ranking system the PWR is.

No, I think I'll stick with my original viewpoint. PWR is obviously a terribly flawed system.

I'll second this, but I'll also say that Quinnipiac and Harvard are very legitimate title contenders and deserving of their top-5 rankings. Cornell, on the other hand, just has a good goaltender and very poor possession stats, so I would imagine they'll be exposed before long.

You cannot deny that it is light-years ahead of the now defunct BCS....

lucky you. any other system and pc wouldn't have had those 2 home games to win and get to boston. y'all would have been awaiting a phone call from the NIT

Especially after it sent 6 NCHC teams in last year.

Though they did make great fodder for Hockey East teams!

and for depriving the skating eichels a national championship the rest of the country was also grateful to that system for a few weeks.

A trolling expedition with both Dirty and mookie. Better make sure the bait buckets are full!
