  • Re: Northeast Regional: BC vs Denver, Lowell vs Mankato

    Well, Minnesota State hockey gets no love from the "experts" on ESPNU. In making their picks for the regionals, one picked Boston College and the other picked Lowell out of the northeast regional. When asked to pick their upset choice for the whole tournament, one picked Denver.

    So, of the four teams in the northeast regional, only Minnesota State got no mention.
    My guy is a hard-nosed hockey player who is not afraid to crash the net. Your guy is a goon who runs the goalie.

      Not to go all Yogi Berra on you, but until you do it, you haven't done it. We won't get picked to win stuff until we've won stuff.

        Interestingly, the northeast was the only regional with any variability. They're all over union, wisco, minny. I'm shocked at their love for wisco.

          Wisconsin was being pushed big time by ESPN last year as the "hot" team. Then the ran into Lowell and were dismantled in the first game of the regional 6-1. It was laughable.

            I'm definitely shocked at how much love their nuts are getting. The B1G love affair is in full force!

                  Good. Flying under the radar is better anyways.

                  Earlier this week, Erik Haula said that he'd bet every cent he has on Lowell to beat the Mavs.

                        Are you suggesting that what tv pundits and fans think is going to somehow influence how Lowell approaches this game? Like, because some guy says Minnesota State has no shot, that Lowell is going to look past this game?

                        What a silly notion.

                          I'm sure that no Mavericks player is terribly concerned with what a former Gopher player thinks.

                            So how many Maverick and Pioneer fans made the trip out? How many are local?

                              Was I not the one earlier in this thread that stated it's foolish to do think that?

                              Players do read social media and look around to see what is said. It's part of the world we live in now, and teams in all sports have said it's just a simple reminder of motivation and that a group of guys embrace being "under the radar".

                                Not many, although there will be a group of 40 Boston natives there for Johnny McInnis.
