Other Playoff Games - 3/17/06

FSN North is showing WCHA SF 1 now. Score is UND 2 WIS 2 at the first intermission. UND scored their 2 goals just before the break.

30 sec left in the 1st period, Holy Cross up 1-0 on UCONN.

With just seconds left in the first Ithaca-native Chris Uber ties up the game for UCONN. 1st intermission.

Anyone getting the WEOS Radio broadcast of the first semifinal in Albany? It just sounds like NPR.

Edit: 30 seconds later, they magically swapped the broadcast and it's playing.

Try whrb.org. They usually carry the Harvard hockey games.

Edit: Confirmed. whrb is carrying the game, dartmouth wins the opening face-off.

Miami (OH) - NMU game will begin shortly on FSN Detroit. Of course, CSTV is airing ECACHL SF1.

UND 3 WIS 2 (2nd). Assist goes to WIS D's right skate.

Did anyone post a cheat sheet for "who to route for" (I don't have time to scroll through all the scenarios posted on the PWR thread)? I think we want Minny and Wisconsin to meet in the WCHA finals. So far, not so good.

sucks and the st pattys day boys are scoreless, dartmouth has carried play with some decent chances. slow start to the game though. they mentioned neither team is home, but that is because they dont have fans

3 straight saves by dagnieault (sp) on the dartmouth pp.

Harvard goes up 1-0

1-0 Sucks. No change in the scoring for the other games.

soft goal - " a gift for harvard" after dartmouth carries the play. though they (DC) didnt have a good pp.
powerplay coming up
holy cross and uconn tied at 1
3-2 und over wisconsin (edit: up on)

Is the other semi on AllAccess?

Sucks up 2-0 now.

French Rage
Is the other semi on AllAccess?

Yes. When I open up the video link for tomorrow's game, I get the Harvard Dartmouth game. H just went up 2-0.

2-0 NMU (1st). Almost 3-0 Sucks. Post made a save for the DC sieve. 4-3 UND (2nd int.).

BU 2 UHN 1

Sucks is dominating. 3-0, wow.

3-0 sucks

NMU 2 Miami 1

Sweet mother! 4-0!

4-0 sucks on an excellent PP feed
dartmouth is falling apart

4-0 Sucks (2nd). 2-1 NMU (2nd).

Penalty on Dartmouth early in second, another Harvard goal.

4-0 Sucks pwnage going on.

These guys are saying it's like the first game of the season all over again when Dartmouth looked terrible.

Not sure on the exact score, but Holy Cross up on UCONN in the 3rd.

3-1 HC, 10 minutes left in the 3rd.

5-0 sucks on a shorty, one hell of a wrister.
time for the safety sieve?

DC gave up a shorty. 5-0 Sucks. Yikes.

Holy Cross 3-1 8:30 to play in the 3rd

bo 2 uhn 1 1st intermission
sucks 5 dc 0 middle 2nd
nmu 2 miami 1 2nd int
und 3 wis 2 2nd int
not sure about the aha game

Now 4-1 Holy Cross. 6:27 left in the 3rd period.

Miami ties it 2-2, about 7:30 left in 2nd

UND wins it. Final score 4-3.

Anyone having problems with the WEOS stream other than me? I really don't want to have to watch gameslacker tonight.

North Dakota 4 Wisconsin 3 Final

This is a good thing for Cornell right?

It's not playing for me either. Right now I'm listening to the sucks game on WHRB, but I want to listen to the CU-Colgate game. Here's to them fixing their problems.

May I also add that hearing the "Let's Go Red" cheers on WHRB is absolutely hilarious. To all of those in Albany right now, I salute you!

Final, Holy Cross 4-1 over UCONN.

ok... jy3, for the PWR impaired, what are the implications of the UND win???

Off to the bar to watch the game. LGR!!!!!

redliner
This is a good thing for Cornell right?

Absent other results this doesn't do much but all of the scenarios suggested such as Cornell getting in despite losing two games and Cornell getting a 1 seed were made with Wisconsin winning. As of now we're in 6th and losing the ND comparison. ND is in 8th.

Du pulls some trickery and puts Sucks up to 6-0. Wow.

noooooooooooo, I was rooting for North Dakota .

noooooooooooo, I was rooting for North Dakota .

It might be that this game had no impact. I'm just telling you what was worked out on the other thread.

I'm pretty sure UND winning is bad for us. As Wisconsin is out of reach. Though this isn't exactly a scientific analysis.

BU 5 UHN 2 in the 3rd
Miami 4 NMU 2 7:15 left in the 3rd

8-1 Harvard. Man, Dartmouth blows tonight.

I think it's 9-1. I hope someone is scouting this offense for tomorrow.

BU 9 UHN 2 in the 3rd
Miami 4 NMU 2 3:35 to play 3rd

Gameslacker lists shots on goal in favor of Dartmouth 45-33. Is this possible??????

holy cow 10-1

BU 9 UHN 2 in the 3rd
Miami 5 NMU 2 eng

Sure it's possible. Goaltenders can't win games by themselves, but they can sure LOSE games by themselves.

BU 9 UHN 2 late 3rd
Miami 5 NMU 2 Final

Harvard 10 Dartmouth 1 Final

I hope the Cornell fans started a "coach of the year" chant to taunt Gaudet.

BU 9 UHN 2 Final
Miami 5 NMU 2 Final

BU has a 10th goal disallowed.
UHN on the bubble with no consolation game tomorrow.

wow, i go to get duff's wings with a couple left in the second and it is 5-0, get home after a wing delay and it is 9-1

Guess the "defensive forward of the year" didn't show up either.

Wasn't somebody ten or so days ago trying to tell us how good Devine was?

As an OT aside, Troy Nickerson will wrestle for the 125 pound championship tomorrow night against Joe Dubuque of Indiana.

Yum, Duff's wings. Growing up I had a paper route that ended about 100 feet from Duffs. Guess where my tip money went

we went to the orchard park one

Duff's is very, very good.

Back OT

13 mins left in the 3rd in Minnesota. WCHL hockey is so disgusting. There is no defense at all. Still 6-5 SCSU.

From the Colgate game thread

MSU 4 Michigan 1 Final
St Cloud 6 Minnesota 5 in 3rd
BC 2 Maine 1 in 3rd
Bentley 2 Mercyhurst 2 with 5 to go in 1st OT

Bentley 2 Mercyhurst 2 moving on to double OT

BC 2 Maine 1 5:18 left

The SCSU announcers are so gittery they're beside themselves.
Huskies are withstanding the Gopher pressure.
Entertaining to listen to.
7:00 left in the third, still 6-5 SCSU

Quick PWR update:

Root against North Dakota. They are the only team that can hurt us from my rough calculations. Regardless of who wins this WCHA game or the ECACHL, if North Dakota wins Cornell is heading west on a 3/2/1 bonus.

On a 33/22/11 A Cornell win puts them in Albany with MSU at number 5, and a loss puts them west.

On any other bonus higher (or lower) than 33/22/11 Cornell appears to be stuck in 7th and headed west regardless of the ECACHL result.

It is still impossible to figure out every permutation, but these are the most likely outcomes as of right now.

SCSU 7 Minny 5 with a little over 3 left in the 3rd.

SCSU scores, 7-5 after a breakaway!

I hate Minny, but does anyone have the feeling that a SCSU victory means a UND victory (bad) tomorrow

Bentley wins

7-6 SCSU with 2 left.

a minute later. . . .Minny scores. 7-6 SCSU

Minny scores 201 left........scsu 7 mn 6

barnburner......

Icing with 1:12, Minny's sieve is probably going to the bench and I imagine a TO will be called.

Minny scores 201 left........scsu 7 mn 6

More than 19,000 in attendence.
Largest crowd in that facility.
Largest WCHA crowd ever.
(according to announcers)

miny ties it 14.6 sec left

7-7!!!! 14 sec left. SCSU-Minn

Wow.

This is horrible, horrible hockey but I would be lying if I said it wasn't fun.

abmarks
miny ties it 14.6 sec left

4 goals by same player (can't get his name)

Edit: Ryan Potulny (from North Dakota, ironically)

Headed to OT.

lol i posted this in the game thread
7-7 is insane

Play is back in Minny.

19 left in the first OT.

scsu! 10 OF OVERTIME!!!!!!!

SCSU wins 8-7.

GO SCSU!!!

Texas 41 Penn 40 with 5:53 left.

Time to play YATC. Now wasn't there some funky scenario if HC loses to Bentley, that the AHA got 2 teams in? What happens of SCSU gets the autobid?

Seems like under a few scenarios SCSU (AQ), Holy Cross and Bentley (AQ) can all get in.

If you look up about 15 posts I put up a summary.

It really comes down to Cornell winning and whatever the bonus is. If Cornell loses, they are most likely west. If they win with a 33/22/11 bonus, they are most likely east. Any other bonus seems to doom Cornell to 7th and the west.

I ran a few and got BU up to 2 in which case 7 put you in Worcester. Not sure if I can work it to get Cornell as the 7 and BU at 2.

Yeah, I think we are fans of BU and SCSU tomorrow. Cornell doesn't really seem to move from 7 unless they win and get a favorable bonus.

So until tomorrow we should just go over to Gopher Puck Live and tell them to choke on their arrogance.

Seems like under a few scenarios SCSU (AQ), Holy Cross and Bentley (AQ) can all get in.

* Atlantic Hockey Championship game: Bentley defeats Holy Cross.
* CCHA Championship game: Miami defeats Michigan State.
* CCHA Consolation game: Michigan defeats Northern Michigan.
* ECAC Championship game: Cornell defeats Harvard.
* ECAC Consolation game: Dartmouth defeats Colgate.
* Hockey East Championship game: Boston University defeats Boston College.
* WCHA Championship game: St. Cloud State defeats North Dakota.
* WCHA Consolation game: Wisconsin defeats Minnesota.

Puts Holy Cross in the last non AQ spot ahead of UHN ( ) and Cornell in Worcester as No. 6 with 33/22/11 or 3/2/1. Even if UND wins here on either bonus, Cornell is in Worcester as No. 6.

This is not an unthinkable scenario either.

After watching this afternoon's game, I wouldn't bet the farm on Dartmouth.

Well, they should be well rested after taking a 3 hour nap this afternoon.
