    Hockey East either.

      What a stupid time to complain. Just let them play. And OSU doesn’t have anything they need to prove they were tough last year they can be tough this year

        This selective statistic stuff is fun. Let's continue: Duluth went 1-2 against non-conference tourney teams. SCSU 1-1-2 (at least they didn't lose to Princeton). We won't talk about Denver, 'cause that doesn't help my NaCHo is terrible argument.

Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

            Best matchup of the 1st round, could very easily go either way. If they played 10 times I'm quite confident each team would win 5, but in a 1 game scenario anything can happen. I'll say this much... between those two teams and Ohio State the Midwest is by far the toughest of the four regionals.
            National championships won by Big Ten schools : 23 (Michigan 9, Wisconsin 6, Minnesota 5, Michigan State 3, Ohio State 0, Penn State 0, Notre Dame 0)
            National championships won by NCHC schools : 21 (North Dakota 8, Denver 8, MN-Duluth 3, Colorado College 2, St. Cloud State 0, Miami 0, NE-Omaha 0, Western Michigan 0)

            23 > 21

              This thread was obviously meant to prove an emotional response and I'm not biting. For those of us who know hockey the regionals will provide interesting challenges for ALL teams. The B1G can go as far as anybody and we'll see won't we?
              TovaraischLisa used a very narrow and limited comparison to make a flawed point, but again, apparently wanting an argument.

                When the AHA, HEA, WCHA and NCHC play larger conference schedule, 3 HEA schools have the Beanpot, the Minnesota schools have agreements with other Minnesota schools NC, the B1G doesn't have a lot of choice but to schedule ECAC schools and independents. The ECAC, despite having 3 teams in the tournament, was a very "middle heavy" conference this year and 2 of the 3 representatives in the NC$$ tournament have schedule limitations as well.

                The B1G is getting its bearings as a conference, but personally I like their smaller league schedule because it's pretty cool that some of those schools are now forced to schedule games against us "little guys".

                        Yeah, except everybody all year has been saying how awful Hockey East is this year and how great the Big Ten is. So "we're the same as Hockey East" doesn't really seem like the hill you want to die on here (Also, as mentioned above, Northeastern technically does have one such win)

                          An argument would be rude & crude. I'm going to watch and enjoy hockey this weekend. Nobody knows who will win so to make claims about conferences is amusing.
