NCAA Tournament Possibilities

[redice]

Northeastern did win.  Stupid BC can't even win when they're supposed to.

Strange season for Northeastern--the polar opposite of Cornell's.  Started the year 2-12-3, since then 19-1-2 going into the Hockey East championship game tonight.  Working on a 12-game winning streak now.

Sounds like good coaching to me. Improvement over the season is one of the main things I look for in a coach.

Hmmmm..   And I am condemned for suggesting that Schafer should go....Interesting......

Relax.  He's just being a little more subtle so it's easier to not react. (And I don't think we're condemning you, just reacting to how strident you've been at times.)

Usually, perception is reality, Keith...    In most cases, if I post something on this forum, I'm either ignored or my thoughts are condemned.....    

You call me strident.....   I admit that I don't "mince words".   But, is that any reason to be in attack mode when I post (or am not being ignored)?...I think not..

TBRW uses record in first half of ECAC season v second half as one factor in Predictions, so I have the data.  Sometime I will compile it and see if there are any trends by school or coach.

I predict RPI will show a negative season progression under the Fridge and in many seasons since his booting.

That is what makes the current Cornell season a bitter pill. I don't remember this type of crash in seasons since Coach took over in '95-'96.

I mean it wasn't really surprising. We were never playing good hockey, just lucky hockey.

Lucky or not, Cornell deserves better.  After crushing losses in the NCAAs every year, it seems our new thing is to miss the NCAAs by one game: just as in 2014, Cornell is the highest-ranked team to miss.  

Hope Yale and Q and Harvard lose 15-0 in the first round.

I hope Harvard and Qpuke both lose tonight too.::cuss::

Michigan wins the Big Ten, which clinches an NCAA bid for Yale.  Had Minnesota and UMD won, Yale would have been eliminated.  UMD currently trsils 2-1, make that 3-1 St. Cloud just scored as I was typing this.

It's easy to slip into attack mode on the internet, especially if you don't have a face to put with the handle you're responding to. That doesn't make it right and I try to avoid it myself (some are better at it than others).  It does help to think about your perception though to control your reality because things aren't always what they first seem.  that said, i can see how you feel like you've been attacked and if I've ever been responsible for that I'm sorry.

That's "big" of  you, Keith.   But, no, I cannot think of any specific examples where you have been guilty of that.    Thanks for being so gracious.

Now to the loooong offseason...   UGH!!

On this I think we can all agree. *sigh*
