For a league without an NCAA title since '89 or two teams in the Frozen in 33 years, ECAC Hockey folks are sure talking a lot of junk.
The ECAC has guaranteed 2 in Frozen Four Johnny...I understand - since you don't come from an Eastern school, it's hard for you to count. We've seen UML out here - not in the same class. Seen Miami get smoked by - ahem - Michigan in CCHA tourney too. St. Cloud couldn't beat Wisconsin & THEY'RE going to win the title? Seriously??? Think Union.

OK...........tell me again how the WCHA is soooooooooooooooo strong? Minny & ND got beat by WHO?????? Nahhhhhh, not
Yale??? OK, we're close enough to April's Fools Day.
Because it's been a long time coming. And the other conferences have talked a LOT of smack.
And now that any player who doesn't spell "cat" K-A-T realizes they can play top tier hockey AND get an education AND play for coaches like Allain AND get drafted into the NHL.
Get used to the view.
Union's the fastest team in the tourney. Q has the best goalie and they play elbows out. If they didn't have to play eah other, this would be the ECAC Invitational.
The ECAC - and their fans - are just getting started.
It would be fine. We're coming. Again. Union's fast. Q is physical. Yale is swarming. Better players are coming year over year. ECAC has 2 in - guaranteed - this year. Could be an all ECAC final. Don't think so, but it's possible. Union IMHO is the best team - this time. But Yale will be back. And Q is better, more physical than any team out West. Enjoy the view. Enjoy the posts. We're here now.
Q has the best goalie
The ECAC gets two frozen four teams and now they rule college hockey? Puh-leeze.

Hey Gopher your season is over. Don't you have some ice fishing to do?Yup...now you're going to get ALL the best recruits. Why go to schools with a great education where you can get national attention for free when you can go to one where no one outside of the ECAC knows where it is, and oh yeah, PAY $50,000 a year to play...? You really nailed it. Not to mention if I'm a college recruit I'm ONLY going to base my college choices on success in 2012-2013 and not, uh let's see, basically the entire history of college hockey.
You Ivy-Leaguers are confusing me. You're confirming my beliefs that you're pompous *******s, but making me question whether you're actually somewhat smart.
