        The only way we're getting in is if we win the auto bid. And for NMU to take the auto bid, in the words of aparch, treat every weekend like an elimination weekend until the first full week of April.

        As for me, I'd be happy with a top 4 finish and a first round playoff victory.

          With the WCHA currently considered to be a "weak sister bottom feeder" NCAA D1 Hockey Conference the only way for WCHA teams to get into the Final 16 is by winning the Conference tournament automatic bid like MTU did last year so everything else is purely conjecture.... Whoever is hot during the Conference tournament has the best chance.... A WCHA team could go (25-10-5) and not get an At-Large bid so there seems to really be only one path to the NCAA's for WCHA teams as of late....

            So if you know this, why the need to post our supposed PWR rankings every week?

              ha ha. exactly and he's wrong. The WCHA has had multiple teams in the tournament recently. Ferris and Mankato in 2014. MTU and Mankato in 2015 with BG just missing. Ferris in 2016 with MTU just missing. MTU in 2017.

                The reason I post the NMU Rankings is to keep an eye on NMU's progress during the season.... If we are to follow ShirtlessBob's logic why should we follow NMU's season record at all????

                  One WCHA team making the Tournament in 2016 and one in 2017 isn't exactly setting the world on fire now is it???????

                    In two of the four seasons of the new WCHA, two teams made it. 6 bids in 4 years should neither surprise, nor disappoint anyone.

                      Since I'm constantly on trial for what I post in this forum I appreciate that logical statement....

                      • All I care about is wins and finishing higher than 8th in the conference. Currently 3rd in the conference and playing slightly better than .500 hockey is a MASSIVE improvement over last year.

                        As for tonight, let's get the sweep against Huntsville and move on to next weekend.

                          I couldn't agree with you more.... I'd like to see NMU get 20 wins, have a Top 20 PAIRWISE/RPI/KRACH Ranking and re-establish the program into being a NCAA Tournament contender again....
