Bracketology 2019

[Swampy]

It's still January, so take this with big chunks of rock salt. But USCHO has us playing Round 1 in Fargo.

Other placements of interest include Union & Q (against ASU) in Providence & Clarkson in Manchester.

I did a bracketology last Sunday and came up with the same result.

[French Rage]

Break up the ECAC!

[Dafatone]

As usual, I'm torn between hoping we stay East so fans can attend and hoping we go to Fargo so I can attend.

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

We either need to get out of the 8 and 9 positions or UMass needs to move up to #1 again.

I'm not eager to go to Fargo.

[ursusminor]

Four ECAC without Union. I approve. :-D

[Swampy]

As usual, I'm torn between hoping we stay East so fans can attend and hoping we go to Fargo so I can attend.

I hope that this, this, or this changes your mind.

[Trotsky]

Fargo wasn't filmed or set in Fargo.

As usual, I'm torn between hoping we stay East so fans can attend and hoping we go to Fargo so I can attend.

Too many of our placements that I've "wished" for (e.g. playing NH in Albany in 2010) have blown up in my face, so all I want is for us to get in wherever they put us and hope for the best.

[Swampy]

Fargo wasn't filmed or set in Fargo.

But it was about Fargo. And the third link in my earlier note is about actual existing Fargo.

Yeah, but your links were all about dying in Fargo.  I don't want to die in Fargo, and I sure don't want to see our hopes for the Frozen Four die in Fargo.

This week is nicer.

What I didn't get was this:

"And while we're at it, why not swap Cornell and Northeastern for distance purposes."

"Let's give Cornell a tougher matchup than their seed warrants every year because 'distance purposes.'"
