    Re: The last wcha champ!!!!!!

    Depending on the new coach, I see no reason the Mavs can't compete for the 6th spot with the talent currently here as well as the incoming class.

      Who do you think they finish ahead of?

        My against all odds prediction is that somehow that math works out such that UAA, BSU, MSU and MTU tie for first with the other 8 tied for second. After eliminating the 5th and 6th seeds at the Final Five, the remaining four real WCHA teams toss their sticks into center ice and play four competitive mixed-squad pick-up games and declare that UAH is awarded the WCHA auto-bid to the NCAA tourney. This also works out by eliminating the need to have any hardware shipped back to the new league offices the week after the season ends.

          As long as UAA doesn't finish last, I'll be happy.

            2-11. Don't care, doesn't matter.
            12. UAA, because they really suck.

              It will be nothing to be proud of though when Minnesota wins it with non-Minnesotans on the team.

                You're talking to the wrong person there. I don't care who we have. We're going to win it.

                  I don't know why everyone's so high on Wisconsin, and if Schultz leaves I can't see them getting home ice let alone an NCAA bid

                    Not sure why people are high on Wisconsin and Omaha. Neither of them are going to get home-ice next year.

                      Adding to that, I'm not sure why everyone is picking UAA to finish last this year. Yes, they were bad, but they had a bunch of freshmen last year. They've got nowhere to go but up.

                        Mankato's most talented players were young, and they have a good class coming in, new coach, and they were DECIMATED with injuries. Wisconsin was real young especially with freshmen goalies. The only bottom team I could see taking a step back is Bemidji but Walsh was good in net and I think they were SO much better than UAA that I still think they won't fall that far.

                        Anchorage was THAT bad, but I guess my question is who do you see them finishing ahead of?

                          They could finish ahead of Bemidji and possibly Mankato, but that's unlikely. I see them finishing 10th or 11th.

                          The team showed some promise by knocking off top teams such as UMD and holding a 3-1 lead at one point in game two in the UAA-UM series, but they need to be more consistent. I lost track of how many leads the Seawolves blew over the course of the season.

                            seawolffan - Don't worry about placing last until Tech fans start predicting it. Only the fans of Michigan Tech have the necessary understanding of what it takes to finish 10th of 10 or 12th of 12 due to our vast experiance in this area of the standings during recent years. Those who typically finish in the top half of the league don't have the first hand knowledge to accurately predict the lower bracket placings. You can disregard their predictions. You heard it here first - UAA is not finishing 12th next season. I will not predict exactly where because we are too busy trying to figure out what it takes to finish 4th through 6th for a change.

                              Exactly. I didn't watch every game, but I liked what I saw from several of the freshman (especially Coldwell). The team was great at the start of the season in the two Alaska tournaments, going 3-0-1 with wins against Mercyhurst, SCSU, and UNO, as well as a tie against Clarkson. This team has the potential to be good, but I think after last year, there's low expectations everywhere.

                                I just don't know who will be worse than UAA. Msu will be better with the new coach and BSU works too hard to place last.
