    Since I have to be away between 3:00 and 9:00pm MST, I won't contribute at the time, but I would just as soon see one thread so that I can see how the emotions played out over the course of the evening.

        Considering the west has won six of the last nine national titles, I'd say any sense of superiority regarding the west over the east is justified.

                Not looking to get involved in an East vs West debate because it's dumb, but two things to consider:

                1- There are twice as many Eastern region teams
                2- Middlebury

                  More teams or not and taking Middlebury out of the equation, the West still didn't have the record Vs. the East like now.


                  I would blast the Western folks back in the late 90s early 2000s with the simple phrase of "win something". It's time for the Eastern teams to shut up and win. I have zero issue with the Western teams getting the benefit of the doubt in todays hockey world.

                      While I understand the whole region/conference allegiance sentiment (especially being from Big Ten country where the Big Ten's representation and performance in the Rose Bowl is of utmost importance), it really doesn't make any sense. Teams, not regions, win championships. For me, bragging and taking pride in Trinity winning the National Championship two years ago because they were from the East is the equivalent of the Vanderbilt fan bragging about SEC dominance in football.

                        Understand but cant completely agree. As a son of NYS I want at least one team representing our state in Utica. (yes even it its the Red Army)
