This outcome was really no surprise after having seen ND in the Hockey East tournament.

Well. Tech still hanging on the best goals against versus Denver in the tourney.

I don't see them losing Saturday. Impressive team.

Wow, The Denver team in 2005 was pretty **** good...this team is even better. What a performance tonight. UMD is a different beast though. I saw them play Denver earlier in the season. No one on that team takes a shift off. They're extremely good.

Bring back gary thorne

Agree. I always thought Gary was one of the better hockey announcers. He's been a play-by-play announcer for the Baltimore Orioles since 2007.

Agreed here too. Luckily I was bartending and couldn't hear the TV

Hasn't happened a lot recently, but:
Wisconsin - 2006
Minnesota - 2002

You could also count 2015 (Hockey East was the host, but BU got to play in Boston).

I know Minnesota made a few Frozen Fours that were played in St. Paul, but I'm not sure if they were the "host." CC hosted the first 10 Frozen Fours and made several of those. Denver hosted a few in the '60s that they played in.

EDIT: 2 more additions: Brown hosted in '65 and BC hosted in '63.

Illinois-Chicago should have been hosting this weekend. So what if they haven't had a Division I hockey team since 1996—just would have liked to have seen that fiery UIC logo on the ice ...

UMD is the greatest diving team of all time and I'm pretty proud of it. UND fans are just bitter because Cam Johnson got hit and Tucker Poolman got hurt. You guys wish you could dive like us!


Bring on Denver!

Brian Gionta would beg to differ (diffa?).

It's amazing what a very mediocre team can do with the gift of 4 home games.

Not everyone could face that murderers row of that one AHA team that year...

Not really our fault that the #2 overall seed couldn't get out of the first round.

Will be interesting to see Montgomery at pro level soon

[icehawk]

I don't think it's just Sioux fans who noticed the soccer like flopping

Hell Melrose even mentioned it

So some of you DID notice the 3m platform someone installed at the united center.

Don't forget that they lost to Providence, also a Hockey East school, in the Finals.

Interesting end of season for BU. Including the Hockey East Finals, four of their last six games were at the Garden.
