WCHA 2010 Predictions Thread

Re: WCHA 2010 Predictions Thread

Also, a really great rivalry needs to have championships on the line every now and then. Nothing is better than beating your rival when they are ranked number 1, or in the playoffs for a Championship.

I think this is why the UND/UMN rivalry has fizzled a bit in the last few years.
I mean, when was the last time that UMN was ranked #1, made the playoffs, or competed for any sort of championship (they couldn't even win the Dodge Cupcake Classic last year!)? ;) :D
 
Re: WCHA 2010 Predictions Thread

Lee is also the biggest choker in the league/country.

Why, did Hjelle flee to Canada?

Plus the Final Five last year. Plus the MN State Tournament.

He won a **** title in the MN State Tourney, then the next year he played it on one leg, but Mike Lee on one leg still beats whoever else they could've put in net. And the Final Five? You mean when he shutout and stole the game against Wisconsin? Motzko should've gone with a Lee/Dunn rotation that week and the next, but c'est la vie.

What swear word are you using there? I can't even imagine. Is it just d.a.m.n.? Because if so, laaaaaaame.

Hjelle will probably flee either to St, Cloooud or Buttmidji. And he certainly didn't choke for Team Cougar.

And I don't see that changing anytime soon.

See choker would mean losing in big games. He choked at the State Tournament, he choked in the Gold Medal game and he choked in the F5 Championship.

a great example is Minnesota beating the hell out of UND for the National Championship in 1979. Who doesn't like that?

I think alaska is missing that part.

Really? MN won 4-3...is that beating the hell out of someone? Well, you seem to have a lot of posts here so you must know what you are talking about...;)

Re: WCHA 2010 Predictions Thread

Where you guys drafting at?

My house. This year MEg won't be too busy playing hide the salami with Biddy to draft. Which means we will have 3 tight ends and Jon Campion.

Draft party is for collusion purposes only. We need to do it less overtly this year.

Nice. Well Mitch and I are doing it together for the same reason... the salami hiding, not the collusion. I don't think even if we colluded he could make the playoffs.
