Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
Congratulations Q-PAC! Would love to see an all -ECAC final especially between 2 schools about 10 miles apart. That would be like a RPI-Union or SLU-Clarkson final. Good luck in the steel city!
Gotta say, pretty subdued celebration for a team that's never been to the FF before. Very business-like attitude.
As good as these guys are physically, I've been even more impressed with this team mentally. So incredibly strong mentally. The best college hockey team I've ever seen on that side of it.
As for this... You always hope this can happen. ... but you never actually thought or expected it would. Just awesome. What a job by this program. Such a proud moment. I remember this program when it was back in the Atlantic Hockey days; my freshman year losing to Mercyhurst in the conference title game. The following year joining the ECAC but never truly being an elite team in our league until now. This is just ridiculous.
Are video highlight's posted anywhere? The first goal vs Union was an amazing display of effort. I've seen a lot of hockey but I don't think I've seen a more impressive score.

I will get into my personal opinions about this game a little later tonight. For now, we already have our rapid reaction for todays win up at QBSN. Additionally, we will be updated the page with reaction from the press conference and an audio recap featuring USCHO.com's Brian Farrell, Waterbury Republican beat reporter Kyle Brennan, Hockey East's Neil Ravin, and myself a little later.
Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
WOW...was watching the game with my gf and her parents and even they were getting into it.
I was worried about Union coming into this game so hot.
Amazing how people are saying it was Union's late night last night that gave them the win. Still no respect. Time to show the college hockey world something in 2 weeks.
I LOVED that the team didn't celebrate so much after the win. That showed a lot. There's still work to do and they know it.
I'll be there for Saturday if they make it, (can't go Thursday) any idea about ways to get tickets?
What an incredible season... I still can't believe they're in the Frozen Four... it's almost surreal.
Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
Awesome win QU! Good luck in the Frozen Four!
Bottom Line: If you deserve to win the national championship then don't worry about who you play, when, and where. Just keep winning. Exception: You are right about the refs. They, no doubt, have it in for <insert your team name here>!
Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
Thanks to all! Just in from Providence and I still can't find the words to explain what I'm feeling. It's an incredible feeling to know that this team that I've supported for the last 7 years is going to have a shot at the ultimate prize.

Now that I am [finally] back in NYC, I just wanted to quickly stop in to congratulate you guys. The better team won tonight. I really wanted to taste the Frozen Four again, but it will have to wait. I'll be rooting for an all-ECAC, all-Hamden/New Haven final in Pittsburgh.
Re: Quinnipiac Bobcats '12-'13 Post Season - The view from the top...
Congratulations to Qpac nation. I wish we could have put up a better showing last night, but I'm not sure how much of a difference doing so would have made. I got to meet many yellow cladded fans over the weekend and you are a good group. Enjoy the ride and bring it home for the ECAC.
