Hockey Things

For those of you who can't get to the games, Inside College Hockey has the television lineup for the NCAA Men's Hockey Tournament. USCHO also has a listing. And for those who cannot find a television, "All 15 tournament games will be available on ESPN3.com."

As much as it pains me to say this...

Congratulations to RPI for making the tournament as well.

There, I did it.

(Does that make me the better man?)

I find it interesting that the Western College Hockey Blog is picking UMD over Union, already anticipating a game versus Yale.

Here is my bracket

East: Yale over Air Force. Union over UMD. Union over Yale
Northeast: Notre Dame over Merrimack. Miami over NH. Miami over Notre Dame.
West: Boston College over Colorado College. Michigan over Nebraska-Omaha. BC over Michigan.
Midwest: Western Michigan over Denver. North Dakota over RPI. North Dakota over Western Michigan.

Therefore, my Frozen Four is Union, Miami, Boston College and North Dakota.

I then have Union beating Miami and Boston College over North Dakota (but that is a pick 'em, as they are two incredible programs).

In the Final for the Championship...

Well, I am not going to say, because I don't want to publicly pick against Union, however, my hope is that BC will spend a lot of time in the Sin Bin and Union can take advantage of their dominant power play.

That's it, folks.
