    Re: Beanpot LXVI: The Tong Wars Resume

    KRACH ratings of teams going into the Beanpot:

    17 - NU
    18 - BU
    22 - BC
    24 - HU

    {subject to some minor shifting due to late scores}

    Very close grouping.

      bu has to be the hottest team coming into the beanpot. playing some good hockey right now. advantage terriers until someone can cool them off.
      GO NU HOCKEY
      Always bullish on the future.
      We don't always win Hockey East or the Beanpot (#trilogy).. but when we do.. we are the Champions

            I will be surprised if bu doesn't win this thing.

              I will be surprised if they do. I know they’re on a bit of a streak, but, with the exception of last Friday’s 8-0 blowout of ASU, they haven’t been world beaters. Last night they barely got by UMass. They’re a bit banged up, one of their top 6 forwards is recovering from the flu and even if they manage to get by Harvard, Greenway heads to South Korea on Tuesday and misses the final. Of course I’m known to be a Negative Nancy when it comes to this tournament.

                    i want to be optimistic.. but eagles & terriers are getting offense going. harvard & nu need to get it together to have a chance.
                    having said that, go you nu huskies... been too long!
                    NU is tougher than BU. NU vs BC in final. I like NU this year. Go Huskies.

                      How is that going to happen when they play each other this Monday?

                        I know. Sorry. Man that is gonna be a war. I love watching this tourney every year despite a routing interest.

                          I like NU over BC. I think NU finally has a great team due to senior and junior roster. Next year they will begin to fall. So this is it for NU. This year or not. I think this is their year.

                              To the hockey historians on these boards, has NU ever been the highest-rated PWR team heading into this tournament? Certainly not recently, and given the history of the Beanpot, I would say this must be a first.
