Thanks! I needed that.

Yale winning that year is a testament to the fact that no one's really out of the running in the NCAA's. IIRC Yale had only gotten in because the result of the final CCHA game went in their favor.

I remember listening to the Yale announcers' post-mortem when they assumed they were eliminated.  They were quite harsh on the team essentially saying they'd blown it.  Then IIRC Michigan lost and Yale was the final team to qualify.

Yale needed both Notre Dame to beat Michigan and Lowell to beat BU in tournament finals to make it.  UML won 1-0 behind Connor Hellebuyck, now the #1 goalie for the Winnipeg Jets.  BU had a pretty decent record that year, and a win might have put them over Yale in PWR anyway (not sure of that).

If I were a Yale fan, that would be a great audio clip to have.
