Maybe at 530. Women's game has to be over by then. Wouldn't put money on that.

I'm guessing it will be a little later than that. Women's game still has 17 minutes to play and its tied.

Mel bragged about all the top teams he faced this year while being interviewed on ESPN. Acting like Saint Mel. :censored:

Maybe they put SCSU in Michigan's regional because they have a better chance to beat them in a big game than Notre Dame as a way to punish for skipping the WMU game.

Regardless, glad to face UMass instead of Cloud. Not that either was as favorable as getting MTU or down would have been.

Worcester has a NHL regulation ice surface. The Gophers seem to play much better on the smaller ice surfaces. It's all about match ups and if the Gophers play their game, they will win!

Is this the game thread then?

UMass doesn't take penalties. Hopefully 50+ minutes of this game are 5 on 5 for viewing purposes.

Think the Gophers have them on forward depth. Think they might have better offensive d men but Gopher unit probably better overall.

Extremely experienced goaltending I'd maybe give a slight edge to them there.

Overall, if the Gophers show up I I'd say they win the first one.

The possibility of an All State of Hockey Frozen Four is out there, with SCSU traveling the toughest road to TD Garden ☝️

I am guessing a game specific one or regional may be made

This could be Michigan's year...young but uber talented. Then again, they did lose to ND 4 times and won once by the thinnest of margins. ND/UMD style of play shuts down speed teams.

As I look at that bracket I smell an upset in at least one of the Mankato/Cloud/Gopher games. If I was filling out a bracket for five bucks my two upsets would be Qpac and Harvard winning.

I think people are sleeping on the team playing in front of Levi. Also Levi is pretty darn good.

People underestimate WMU, too, though, because they are not one of the usual names.

Exciting time of year. It feels like every year the tourney gets better and better.

To Bonin’s point, there are some STUDS on Harvard. Thats my first round “underrated game to watch” selection.

Reviewing, but I have to agree with Starman, that should count.

B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

Kato ditching black as a color a year or two ago makes their color/jersey combo just gorgeous.
