    Makes no sense to me to put Air Force/Western Michigan in Providence....

      Not happy about Union's draw, but you got screwed. I can't comprehend why Union or BU didn't swap with Western Michigan to play in Providence.
      LET'S GO UNION DA DA DADADA

        Speaking of having it both ways. Here's a dummy talking about "advanced metrics" and failing to cite the small sample size of his "point"
        Go BU!

          Appears the goal was to get a 2nd eastern team to manchester. So that is why cornell got switched. Cornell and AF were only separated in pwr by 1 slot. Also i do remember the committee saying they try to set up bracket integrity for the QFs. And that is exactly what we would have. 1 v 8 etc

            If BU had lost to UML in final would BUs bracket changed?

              Yes, BU would have been a #1 seed, probably in Manchester.

                I asked that in the Pairwise thread and someone said they would've moved up to 4 and been a one seed. I don't see how that would be possible losing to UML in the final, but I'm not a PWR person, so that could be true.

                ETA - Or what Tater said.

                    by default as western lost twice, goofs lost once, and umlol would have lost.

                      Lowell is the top scoring d core in the country. Not on twitter though. Just the ice

                        This scenario Jofa asked about still has UML winning Hockey East. Just BU winning Friday night would have made them a #1 seed.

                          people seem to forget there's a part that comes after a blocked shot

                          edit: and there's a hell of a lot of difference of getting a D-shot blocked down low versus up high... losing it up high often means the other team takes it... unless you're us and you play every **** puck presented, ever. Down low... hell, some times its just as effective as a pass

                            Zero fans, since Moses Brown does not have an ice rink.

                              Diffley and Switzer have the same sample size....so let's talk sample size....3 goals in 6 games vs 4 goals in 37 games and he's allegedly 1st team all hockey east...suck on that dummy
