        They lose money on the broadcasts. The only reason they show the games in the first place is that these games are tied into bouncyball/football contracts.

          Pizzed off? Yes. Surprised? No, given that NCAA hockey regionals typically get lower ratings than infomercials for bass fishing lures.

            Was really hoping to see Bucci do the selection show...

              Take off the tinfoil hat, bud. I think almost any team in the tournament would trade places with BC, but there were compelling reasons to put them there. The only reason I could come up with not to put them there was to protect Quinnipiac as the overall #1 seed from playing a top #2 seed.

                Also, the other 1/3 will be syndicated to somebody....a fox/root/whatever network of some sort. If you want to find a game, you can.

                  Given that BC is 11-4 under York vs. the WCHA in the NCAA tournament, it's probably a good thing for the WCHA. By a combined score of 64-38. That includes a 2-0 record vs. the Gophers.

I can't imagine him ever making anyone even feel uncomfortable when he's sober.There are plenty of players in my time covering the team who have looked at me differently or flirted with me or the like. Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

                    I know there are other mitigating circumstances that called for their placement in the east. But, it is **** convenient they don't have to go through the toughest conference in college hockey in order to get to the Frozen Four.

                      Mitigating circumstances, sure. However, touchy-feely arguments go the other way, too, though -- like having played a RI/NH/MA regional 10 times in the 11 years since the tournament expanded to 16 teams. That seems reason enough to actually put them in their properly-seeded region and have them not within walking distance of their regional for once.

                              Yup, that's why BC ANNIHILATED both UMD and Minn. last year. Next please.

                                Uh - You got the wrong Bulldogs. It was Ferris State, not UMD.
