Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
That makes sense, because when I think of ice hockey, I naturally think of Atlantic City
In Scenarios 1 and 2 Quinnipiac's status is irrelevant because NoDak's TUC win% is still not as high as Yale's. I did not consider what would happen if Scenario 1 or 2 happened and both Qn and Cr were removed from TUC status. I also did not examine what happens if Bemidji State falls out of TUC status, but the loss of 4 TUC wins would cripple NoDak. NoDak also needs Robert Morris (2-0) to remain a TUC. Likewise for UAA (2-0-1)
Like I said, there are a lot of permutations out there. Most of them point to Yale as the #1 overall.

BTW, you've still got LP as the place of the ECAC Final Four in Scenario 3.
I thought that there was not a consolation game at the Final Five this year? That's how they managed to keep the "Final Five" name, because there are five games, the two pre-semis / play-in games, two semis, and the final.

Correct, there is no longer the third place game. You lose, go home.

Well, your Sioux are screwed if they lose the semi-final then.

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
I've actually warmed up to the idea a bit after my initial anger. Now that I'm down in NYC (not Schenectady), the trip isn't that bad and I decided to rent a house with 10 other college friends. It will be nice to have some stuff to do down there other than watching hockey. The casinos and bars/clubs should be a good time but I'm still wondering if the overall attendance will suffer because of the long distance from every school except Princeton. The ECAC tourney was in Lake Placid from 1993-2002 and after that, it was in Albany from 2003-2009. Albany is basically about 3 hours away from every school in the ECAC (except much closer for Union and RPI) so the location was great in terms of convenience, but the actual city was not too much fun for visiting fans.
Anyway, would you mind telling me what the chances are of me seeing Union in Bridgeport/Manchester/Green Bay/St. Louis? I think last week you mentioned that they could miss the tournament and I'm wondering if that changed after the games this weekend. Thanks.

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
I don't really care too much about being #1 overall.
So long as we're a #1 seed, I'll be pleased.

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
The ECAC still has a consolation game, right?
Edit: I only ran Union's side of the bracket, but the lowest I could get them was 10th. They do that by losing to Quinnipiac in the QF or by beating either Qn or Bn and then losing both games in Atlantic City.
God that sounds so wrong.

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
I think so, but since it is in AC, they are just going to spin the roulette wheel with appropriate team colors to determine the winner.

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
I'm pretty sure they've already locked up a #1 seed. They may not catch Yale, but with their RPI and TUC record, it would take something unusual for them to be passed by three teams. Just don't lose to Tech and you'll be OK.

What does Michigan need to do (or what else has to happen) to clinch a 1? Would winning the CCHA tourney be enough?

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
Here is the script for the ECAC and CCHA playoffs. By default the higher seed wins every game. To have the lower seed win a game, change the 0 to a 2.
To add a third game to QF rounds: Change game 1 to the lower seeded team winning, copy either game 1 or game 2 (depending on who you want to win).
To have lower seeded team win a series: Change the 0 to a 2 for both games (or 2 of 3).
Remember to change subsequent rounds to reflect the upset. If Colgate upsets RPI, remember to change the QF match to Cg v Un.
The date is not important.
Paste this script into TBRW and change the option to "specify results".

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
Refresh my memory, how was that done? I vaguely remember as a kid watching both the ECAC and HE championship games on NESN...at the old Garden. Were the HE/ECAC semis all at the Garden as well? When did this end?
Unfortunately, with the majority of ECAC schools being in NY, I assume their best options are still in New York.

I was still in High School, I think, and I can't even remember the details, to be honest, and its not realistic in the least, but from a fan living an hour from Boston, selfishly, it would be awesome to see so much tournament hockey

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
It was called HockeyFest and the ECAC semis were on Thursday, Hockey East on Friday then the ECAC finals Saturday afternoon and the Hockey East finals at night. We joked that it was like in high school, where the JV plays then the Varsity plays
I think the ECAC wanted a prime time showcase, and to get away from Hockey East. Unfortunately for them, that meant leaving the only major media market and population center available (yes, NYC is in the area, but hardly available or ideal).

Re: Too early for the PWR? Princeton and Brown say no!
When was the last year of this? I believe the last ECAC game at the Garden I remember involved a title game featuring St. Lawrence...
