It's creating quite a buzz in the comment section of his blog today where normally you don't see Lowell fans usually commenting but this has brought them out. Makes no sense as Lowell leads HE in attendance by a wide margin and is 8th in the country. NCAA has to see this as well as how many fans they've drawn to the regionals in Bridgeport, Manchester, and Worcester the past few years. Huge numbers and you would think the NCAA wouldn't want to lose that. Plus what a slight to Lowell but it's only Moy's prediction, not the NCAA final bracket so if he keeps Lowell out west and the NCAA has them rightfully in the east in the end, he goes to getting it right two out of seven years.
I saw that and I have to say my first reaction was, either this guy doesn't know how to read a map or he has never been to New England. When you figure that UNH is most likely not going to be there and BC will likely not make the tournament, my guess is that Lowell would bring 5,000 fans to Manchester.
On the other hand, the final brackets are almost never according to his "predictions" anyway, so I wouldn't lose any sleep over it!
Yeah, it feels as though at times he is seeking a reaction. Or he will drop a, just for fun, and report it as his final bracket for the week. Its fine, but until the last week its not having any effect on his "record"
Not to mention that Denver, probably the best team in the country, gets screwed again. I realize that both Minnesota teams are close to Fargo and Cincinatti respectively, but to have Denver travel to EITHER Manchester or Providence is ridiculous, IMO.

Yeah, that makes absolutely no sense. The potential #1 overall seed is sent the other side of the country. That wouldn't happen. I think he was drunk when he did this week's brackets.

Oh I know, I was just agreeing with the other poster it would be nuts to do that (not have Denver out west). The drunk reference was more in response to thinking Moy was indeed intoxicated, thinking Lowell would be shipped out west after potentially winning the HE championship and being #1 seed in HE. Would make no sense given the potential loss of revenue and fans by not having Lowell at either eastern venue.

Re: 2016/2017 Lowell Thread: Hoping for Chicago pt 2
You guys have a new fan in my 2 1/2 year old grandson. He loves hockey highlights, and when I was scrolling through, he was drawn to your logo. Now, when we watch highlights, he always wants to see the "Red Parrot" Team! (particularly painful for me, a Merrimack guy!)
Love the bye, hate the bye. I'm starting to suffer withdrawal.
I remember feeling lost senior year because there was no hockey on friday/saturday
