    Look, if you guys want to have a circle jerk about how super-awesomez the WCHA used to be, be my guest. Forgive me for intruding.

    And this thread wasn't started to talk about how good the conferences are "historically." But whatever. Carry on.

      What's the over/under on whiney Easterner's hooked by this thread?

      Notice the CCHA fans(assuming there are any) with their pedestrian educations have so far been smart enough not to get hooked.

      Is Brown really an Ivy league school? Funny you never hear anything about them. Weird...

        Well, you asked why they are better, and we produced these things called "facts."

          It's like everyone outside of Boston having to read about how great the Beanpot is and pretending that it actually matters.

              All right, so far we've got the following inter-conference records (from USCHO)

              WCHA 9-2-5
              HEA 3-4-1
              ECAC 2-3-3
              CCHA 3-8-1
              AHA 1-10-3

              As a Hockey East guy, I accept our 2nd best inter-conference record so far. It'll go nicely with a 4th straight national championship this spring.

                A man with some sense. The argument was never which conference has the best team, it was the best conference.

                  And it's been fully established from numerous angles how the WCHA is the better conference.

                        Unless you personally have skated with the UMass team and have a first-hand account of how God-awful they are...

                        How's that 7.5 gpg average thing working out for BC so far?

                              1. BC hasn't played them yet. Last year, they were "good," by their standards, and BC beat them five times in five tries. They then lost most of their scoring talent either to graduation or pro defections. While nobody on here has skated with them ( ) it doesn't take a rocket scientist or brilliant hockey analyst to look at their roster and say they're going to have serious trouble this year. Most people put them in at least the bottom 3 or 4 of HE; I say they'll finish 8th or 9th.

                              2. I'm pretty sure exactly one person speculated that BC could break the league scoring record, and that person didn't know that the record was an average of 7+ goals per game. Again, .

                              Seeing as North Dakota lost to Yale to end their season & has had their season ended by an eastern team 5 years in a row (by 3 different teams, so there goes the 'oh, it's one team in the east' garbage), I would hold off on the bluster unless you enjoy sounding foolish.

                              Yes, lower-middle WCHA teams like Mankato, Alaska Anchorage, and, in the last couple of years, Minnesota, are probably better than teams like UMass, UMass-Lowell, and Merrimack, as well as most of the ECAC. If that's what you're hanging your hat on, congratulations I guess.
