  • NCAA Fozen Four: Like this name?

    I was just thinking, with NCAA hockey/ March Madness etc coming up Mar/Apr...why did this name "Frozen Four" stick to coll hockey? Was it the networks?..

    Don't get me wrong.. i do like it, but we have the Super Bowl, the World Series, the Final Four, the NBA Championships, etc..

    ..could we as college hockey fans done better (collectively), to give/use a better name for our beloved NCAA bound teams? Did we have a chance? Get a choice? Was there a poll?

    Are most ardent coll hockey fans pretty happy with this name- (clearly taken from our BB friends, to piggyback a bit on their TV/ratings success) -
    ours now called NCAA Frozen Four.. Could we have done better?

    I am okay with it (i like it), because i understand it garners attention with both, the hockey/ non-hockey crowd.

    Thoughts.. comments...suggestions? Hey, its Beanpot Monday.. i'm trying to not focus on tonight.. until tonight

        The "Fozen" Four sounds like something the Muppets would make up.

              It's been successful as a differentiator from the hoops tourney and it works.

              I wouldn't mess with it.

                      If you had a choice to rename it.. any other suggestions?.. (just for the heck of it).

                      Name does not have to be funny or amusing, but something original befitting the tourney.. (i like the 'Frozen Four' name tourney has now..just probing other opinions). thanks

                              Several years back, the NCAA forbid college hockey from using the name Final Four. They had to come up with a new name and this was it. I think it's kind of ugly, but they had to call it something.
