The most popular response so far is UNH vs. Minnesota. The next most popular is UNH vs. Michigan. Polls are funny.

The amazing part is that 33,000 people have bothered to vote so far!  And we're not that far behind - all of the responses get between 20 and 30% of the vote.

I think it even more amazing that the topics here on E Lynah get the hits they do.  This one already is showing over 180 eyballs. ::bugeye::

And consider that most of the voters probably aren't college hockey fans, and they look at the poll and think "Hmmm... UNH was in the Frozen Four last year, weren't they?" and vote for them.

Of course, Minnesota and Michigan were in the Frozen Four last year, too.  We're the only non-repeaters.  Funny that we haven't heard much about that, isn't it?

My dad pointed it out as soon I began to consider driving 8 hours home to Buffalo to see the games.  Grumble, Dad.  Grumble. ::smashfreak::

I wouldn't feel too slighted.  They are choosing UNH over us 55-45.  Whatever.
