Would you rather play in a refurb'ed barn or a state of the art facility? QU's rink and complex are impressive. I've sat in the seats and the luxury box section and the only better place I've been is BU's rink.

Quinnipiac is in deadspin again: http://deadspin.com/how-quinnipiac-tore-up-and-rewrote-new-havens-hockey-h-472545033

Want to learn how to spell Quinnipiac correctly? Do what I did and write it on $50,000 checks for four years in a row, my daughter is a graduate. Their facility is simply amazing.

Look at it this way, you're some 19 year old kid and you go see the old referb'ed barn that Cornell plays in and someone is telling you how full of history it is. Then you go to Quinnipiac and see a state of the art place with luxury dorms across the parking lot. QU has a hell of a coach with a 17 year win streak as well. QU has good academic programs and they can give you a scholarship as well. Where would you choose?

QU is an emerging school and yes there is no long tradition. I've been to a dozen games over the past five years and they are starting to get it with a pep band and Boomer the Mascot. If they win this they will have their tradition. They still need some decent cheers and a fight song.

How many of you were even alive in when Cornell last won a national championship? When I was there (Class of '83) at least I remembered watching Dryden play for the Canadians. QU's rise over the past 7 years is pretty damn impressive.

Quinnipiac has upper classman dorms across from the rink that are damn near luxuary apartments! My daughter lived up there for two years

Don't sell them short! As a Boston based person, I see a number of their games. I even root for them at the Beanpot every year (Harvard Sucks, Screw BU and I hate BC).

They do have a habit of choking during big games, like during this years Beanpot.
