That seem ages ago after a season like this. To be honest I don't remember it all and hope BC has enough to be pull this one out.

Where are BC fans sitting Saturday ? I'm in 114

Also, who buys tickets to a regional that isn't going to come close to selling out for both nights, then dumps the second night on stubhub if their team loses? Hoky will keep hitting reload all night after BC loses trying to figure out what went wrong.

I was able to buy for Saturday only unless I bought upper balcony seats for the package deal.

True. But neither team lit it up last fall in Denver... each team winning by a 2-1 score. Is Denver as offensively challenged as BC?

Here's what BC has going for them.... 3rd time's the charm (at the Dunk that is).
I've seen losses against Cornel and Union... at the funkin Dunkin. Enuff of that chit!

DU is not very offensively challenged at all, they're close to a one-line team, with the Heinan/Doremus/Moore line putting up some pretty sick numbers. But lines 2 and 3 CAN score also. DU had three of the top-five scorers in NCHC conference play in Moore, Heinan, and LaLeggia. Shut down the top-5 of Heinan, Moore, Doremus, Leggs, and Zajac, and you'll probably win.

Also DU was the #1 offensive team in the NCHC.

Didn't an igle try to kill a goalie or something at the dunk? Stabbed him or something...? What was that story now, Mookie forgets things-

NCHC teams have been trying to figure out how to do that all season... I believe those five only got 1 goal (with two of them sitting) against North Dakota and we still scored 5 against one of the top goalies in the nation. Watch out for our other lines and senior Ty Loney who seems to get hot around this time of year. Quentin Shore can be streaky, but when he's on his goal he can put up goals in bunches. Honestly, the question marks is will our defense be patient enough and not give up odd man rushes and will the goaltending not give up easy goals?? I know we can score, but can we stop the puck from going in our net?

None of the top 5 scored goals against NoDak. Q.Shore(10), Romig(4), Tabrum(3), Didier(3), and Neville(1).
