And Princeton is hanging on to a 1-0 lead.

Clarkson scores 6-on-4 with 6.4 seconds left to tie it up. Going to OT.

It was 6 on 5. The penalty had expired about twenty seconds earlier.

Thanks. I thought I counted only 4 Tigers in front of Ferland before I posted, but perhaps that's why Clarkson was able to score. ::dribble::

ugarte pointed out to me in another mode of communication that Minnesota-Duluth must be going apeshit in front of their TVs right now.

still need ND to win to stay top 4 seed, but does that matter the way they play the game

Who needs a ND win to stay a top 4 seed?

Assuming Denver wins (and they're ahead 3-0), here's what I see:

If OSU and Clarkson win, we finish 4th. Likely we play Minn. Duluth.
If Notre Dame and Clarkson win, we finish 3rd (with Denver 4th).  Likely we play BU.

If OSU and Princeton win, we finish 4th. Likely we play BU.
If Notre Dame and Princeton win, we finish 3rd (with Denver 4th).  Since Princeton would be the natural bracket partner for #3, we can't play them.  Probably they swap Michigan Tech to us and give Princeton to Notre Dame.

Those were my conclusions too. One of these outcomes is not like the others.

I read Adam's column from this morning. Does this mean the Goofers are out?

No, Minnesota-Duluth is out. Minnesota should be the lowest at-large now.

You are the committee (which seems to be struggling a bit right now) had UMD in and Minnesota out, in one combination. Might rely on a few things.

Fair enough - at this moment, Minnesota is barely in #12 ahead of UMD. I'm not gonna do the permutations, someone else can.
