Watching Messier spear someone is not good hockey? Maybe some day NYC can get a real hockey team, until then I will continue to laugh.

Cornell may not have made the tourny but at least we made the shirt! :-P

16 spots
minus AHA Champ minus CHA champ minus ECAC champ = 13 at-large spots (including Minny and Maine who were already in the top 16).

The "bubble" was a 3-way tie at #13 in the PWR for the last at-large bid -- Notre Dame, Colorado College and Colgate.  If Colgate could have won 1 additional comparison they would be in the tourney.

 [/Q]I don't understand that shirt at all. It includes two teams that aren't in this year's tourney and two teams that weren't in the '03 Frozen Four.

Is it a photoshop joke?

 John,

Just curious, and I'm sure you can tell us...if Clarkson had beaten Harvard, is it likely they'd have been paired against Maine also?

Thanks![/q]

Clarkson is lower in the Pairwise than both Niagara and Holy Cross who got the AHA and CHA autobids.  The pairings would have been a bit different.  Clarkson would probably have gotten shipped west to Colorado to play North Dakota. [/Q]
Would a Clarkson win over Harvard have flipped any comparisons and moved them ahead of Niagara or HC?

They're just preselling Frozen Four shirts here: http://www.sportdesigns.com/heashop/. No idea how they picked the teams, they look good to me, though :-)

New Hampshire, not Maine, was a #1 last year.
