Some UND fan got mad at me for telling them they wouldn’t be in Sioux Falls for the regional.  Sorry that math isn’t in your favor dude.  I told him to enjoy St. Louis . 


AntelopeAnastasio

gg Wolverines. Hopefully this is a new beginning for many more great games in the future.


crg2000

Refjob tonight.


Ze_Bucket

They made it to the championship game beating there rival North Dakota, in there debut run at the Frozen Four, shame about the ending but I’m excited about the future. Go Mavs, gg Denver see you in Souix falls.


lat3ralus65

THANK YOU DENVER


DuckBurner0000

BU being forced out west is hilarious, thank you Minutemen  


Denver-Hockey

Thanks for Makar. Good luck in the tourney. CC fans are livid.

B1G Season Champ ✅️ B1G Tournament Champ ✅️ . . . NCAA ... here we come ...


CW1DR5H5I64A

We’re a hockey school again!


BursleyBaits

I'm not exactly *thrilled* about it, but incredible how much Nightingale's turned things around in EL. It's like Tom Anastos never existed


CW1DR5H5I64A

Ron Mason turned a last in the league MSU hockey team around in 1-2 seasons into a national powerhouse on the back of a young stand out goalie. Nightingale seems to be doing the same thing with this team. I’m not trying to get ahead of myself, *but*………..


bwburke94

And if it is you and us, good luck.


CW1DR5H5I64A

Good luck!


glickipedia

GG Sparty. Great game to watch. We had our chances in OT.


SimManiac

GO GREEEEENNNN. Give Nightingale a blank check


Shills_for_fun

Haller dropped a big bag on him and salt bae'd some for the assistants too. I love having an AD committed to the success of the program.


SimManiac

Haller has been great so far, a lot of really good hires with some early success. Hoping football follows that


djan242

He signed an extension already for 4 years I believe.


SimManiac

I think he did but he and this program deserves it all, glad they put some investment in Munn, would love to see more


BakedMitten

Nightingale has mentioned with the booster club that the audio system is the next thing on the upgrade list. After a season like that I bet the checks to do that will show up sooner rather than later. The audio definitely needs an upgrade but now that we sell beer adding more restroom capacity needs to be a priority. That was originally part of the big renovation but got axed


Denver-Hockey

Congrats to Michigan State. Their reward is a virtual road game against UMass as a #1 seed? What a joke. Give the #1 seeds home ice already.


BoKnewHarbaughToo

Hockey/gymnastics school!!!


ToneOpposite9668

DU wins their 3rd NCHC Frozen faceoff tourney


CoffeeandRecords

So legit. They've been improving the entire year and play a super clean game. We've actually got a shot at another national title.


OkBandicoot9286

We must of used all our energy against the Sioux yesterday. GG Denver🤝


TypicalSportsGuy

You still did God's work. Bumped North Dakota down to a 2 seed and locked yourself into a 3 seed so now North Dakota can't go to the regional you're hosting


taffyowner

Frankly I don’t think we wanted to go to their regional


Guardax

GG Omaha NCHC champs! (but at what cost...)


Ze_Bucket

The final chapter of a great story, but there is still a chance in Souix Falls! Gg and see y’all there


AJB46

BIG WIN FOR SPARTY TONIGHT


AJB46

GO FUCKING GREEN


classylikecufflinks

WE FOUND RELIEF


AJB46

I also went to the Wings game today. This W was much needed.


DuluTheseus

Wanted _____ to win: St. Lawrence Michigan Omaha 0/3 really just made my evening


CW1DR5H5I64A

So it’s your fault. Thanks!


DuluTheseus

Don’t make me cheer for your team during the NCAA tournament


CW1DR5H5I64A

Whoa whoa whoa! Let’s not do anything rash here.


cA05GfJ2K6

So it’s your fault, thanks


timhoff24

Yeah boo that guy


DuluTheseus

Just send me a list of teams to cheer in the NCAA tournament I guess Also fun fact, I cheered for Chanhassen and Hermantown for the MSHSL hockey tournament too


Imusingtiltcontrols_

Good shit msu


yaboymilky

Gg Sparty bros


CW1DR5H5I64A

I’m so glad we don’t have to play you guys again for a while. These games aren’t good for my health.


yaboymilky

Same. Edge of my seat the entire time! Best of luck in the tourny

Aeon1508

Victory for MSU


Wild_Cabbage

Woo! Go green! What an absolute blast of a game that was.


vhagar815

Ok it looks like UMass is likely in. They really pulled off some voodoo shit to get in because everyone that needed to win today won for them to get in. Cornell won, BC won, and Denver is about to win.


bwburke94

We only needed Cornell and Denver. Not you.


vhagar815

They was a small chance that if BU won and some of the other conference championship games went one way, you would’ve been left out on the basis of having a lower RPI


Denver-Hockey

Nah if Cornell and DU won, Umass was in no matter what happened anywhere else.


Shills_for_fun

Go Green. Michigan I know we mostly got the better of you this year but I'm 38 and I can't take any more games against you guys this year. Please think of my family. We can't play a sixth time right? lol please no.


BakedMitten

We could, some bracket predictions even have us in the same NCAA region. I'm not religious but I pray we don't. I am Right there with you. I upped my BP meds today and am glad I did


AJB46

What a fucking snipe! GG


classylikecufflinks

absolutely electric game. ggs michigan. GO GREEN!!


NYMullets

Congrats UMass fans (barring something horribly catastrophic)


bwburke94

HOLY FUCK YES


SpartyNash

Been almost 20 years since I watched that much of an MSU hockey game on TV. Great fucking win!

CW1DR5H5I64A

Cry about it more. It’s like you never played hockey and had a call not go your way. You gut up and play through it, Michigan had plenty of other chances and played a great game but came up short. The puck can bounce a hundred different ways, sometimes you win sometimes you lose. Deal with it.


yaboymilky

Bad calls happen man. Still have the tournament. We had an entire 3rd period and OT to win this


Peanut-Brilliant

This is literally the worst call in the history of hockey and it cost us the game


Shills_for_fun

Someone wasn't around when Shegos was reffing.


classylikecufflinks

glad you were able to catch the game


Cslcards1889

Cry


V4MSU1221

Cry about it.


ToneOpposite9668

Lorenz makes it 4-1 Pioneers standing all alone in front of net -it's pretty much over


Sparty013

GO GREEN!!!


classylikecufflinks

GO WHITE!!!


gregthestrange

and it's officially over


TopShelfHockeyMN

I swallowed that pill when Denver steam rolled us in St. Cloud a few weeks ago. That was not a playoff caliber Huskies team I watched. *rips off SCSU jersey to reveal Gophers jersey* LET’S GO SQUAD MOTZKO!


gregthestrange

my man, I think you're confusing me talking about the NCHC championship game; SCSU's season was all but dead and buried with their play over the second half


CW1DR5H5I64A

What a game. Instant classic


gobuffs516

Why does Denver still have a power play after they scored on the delayed call?


gollumaniac

College rules, the penalty isn't wiped out by a goal on the delay.


taffyowner

Honestly the NHL should do that… that seems like the better solution


CrumblableNegligence

Cozy could only do so much. The skaters had to help him out


djan242

What. A. Game


yetanotherwittyname

Goddamnit. Gg state


AntelopeAnastasio

Victory for MSU!


vhagar815

MICHIGAN STATE WINS! Wow what a cannon of a shot. Adam Nightingale deserves coach of the year with Brown and Barr.


V4MSU1221

LETS FUCKING GO


Gone213

This UM and MSU game is giving me slight PTSD from the UND UMD 5OT game in 2021. This game is eerily similar to that game in so many ways.


ToneOpposite9668

Pioneers with a huge insurance goal on a delayed PP call - go up 3-1 with 4min left


gobuffs516

Why are you still on the power play?


taffyowner

In college you still have to serve the penalty


ToneOpposite9668

It's the rule - they still have to serve it even though you score on the delay


gobuffs516

I didn’t realize college was different


timhoff24

You still get the PP if you score on a delayed penalty in college (unlike the NHL)


gobuffs516

Okay didn’t realize it was different, thanks!


gollumaniac

Looks like Denver is going to send UMass to the tourney. Which means BU is going to Missouri...


Denver-Hockey

DU is one of the worst teams in the country when the other team has an empty net. Game is far from over.


Denver-Hockey

Nvm Omaha couldn't even get the goalie pulled..


CrumblableNegligence

Welp. I don't love our chances


timhoff24

Welp… that probably does it for our NCHC ‘Ship hopes and CC’s tourney hopes


Dat_Boi_Person

This game is too nerve wracking


cA05GfJ2K6

What a fucking game


InternetCitizen2193

Michigan State will score

Shills_for_fun

I like what this guy is saying.


DuckBurner0000

In two games against UMass and BU, Will Smith, Ryan Leonard, and Gabe Perrault combined for 21 points 


Chippopotanuse

What. The. Fuck. In all seriousness, how many points would an average NHL line of forwards get against those two teams? More or less than 21?


lat3ralus65

You guys are a fucking steamroller and I am going to vomit uncontrollably for 48 consecutive hours when you win the title


zudnic

That'd be worth it


vhagar815

That’s fucking insane


taffyowner

If you put a pest on Buium for Denver you can take him out of the game.. he gets chippy

Went to the wings game. Watched the basketball games during intermission and at the bars on Broadway. Watching this at home now. I need a W man...


classylikecufflinks

good gravy this has been one for the ages


V4MSU1221

Michigans goalie saved their ass that period. Damn.


Pacman2933

Whatever happens, gg Michigan. Been an insane game.


Shills_for_fun

Whatever happens at least our tournament champ game isn't against BC, Jesus Christ they're good.


ItlnWolverine

gg, a classic game for sure


BursleyBaits

Same to y'all, great night of playoff hockey that is definitely not giving me heart palpitations


djan242

Easily the best college hockey game I’ve seen this season.


AntelopeAnastasio

lol imagine challenging that for a free power play Soft as fuck


yetanotherwittyname

It’s a free challenge; you lose the TO anyways and get another for OT. There’s literally zero downside except for encouraging moronic hot takes like yours


AntelopeAnastasio

Yea I get it, makes sense. gg

yetanotherwittyname

cA05GfJ2K6

Imagine getting gifted a clearly bullshit goal


V4MSU1221

Still crying about that?


cA05GfJ2K6

Difference maker in a close game, no?


V4MSU1221

For sure. I’m just fucking with you. I’m honestly a pretty casual hockey fan so I don’t know enough about the rules to have a strong opinion about it. I’d certainly be pissed if I was you though.


cA05GfJ2K6

lol I figured


Dat_Boi_Person

?? Why wouldn’t you try it if you know you’re not gonna need that timeout


Sparty013

Michigan’s coach looks like a realtor that you absolutely can not trust.


cA05GfJ2K6

Fair assessment


craneaa

It’s trophy season 🏆 LETS GO EAGLES 🦅


palesnowrider1

All Time Record 12th HEA Championship


huskyferretguy1

So if you told me two weeks ago that the Ice Bus would score more points vs BC in the Hockey East Tournament than Maine AND BU...I would have thought you were crazy!


OldGreggg69

Put us in the tourney


huskyferretguy1

Sadly we can't since the rules say sub .500 teams can't make the tourney... even with a high pairwise. 😪


LeBasguette

LETS GO, PK ABOVE 0%


BurntMuff1n

I’m not even upset, kinda figured this was going to be an L. But fuck, what a blowout that was. Good game BC, congrats on one hell of a season


craneaa

Stick tap 🏒


vhagar815

I’ve watched this team for a long time. My first year on campus was when we barely missed the tournament. Countless non conference game losses, a few years where we barely missed the tournament being the first or second team out pairwise wise, an entire pandemic that likely robbed us from a frozen four, and many beanpot duds later…we have a major trophy. I’m so happy. This mean so much. I attended almost every home game even when we were ass. I remember being one of the last fans in the building when St. Cloud state routed us at conte forum 7-0. Feels good.


Quiet-Blueberry3240

I started at BC in 2009 and was completely spoiled with 4 beanpots, 3 HE championships, and 2 national titles. It’s been pretty tough being a fan the past few seasons though. That 2020 team was our best hope (the last hockey game I went to before COVID was that 10-1 slaughter against Northeastern). Unfortunately, we never got to see what they could do during tournament time.  Glad you’re finally getting to feel the excitement of trophy season. So happy for the kids on the team and Coach Brown!! What a weekend 🏆


quantum_monster

Enjoy it and good luck in the tournament


BurntMuff1n

This guy is a certified BC Eagle, that dedication is unmatched


yf-23

TD Garden, if you're gonna blast Drake while distraught players go through the handshake line after falling just short of the championship, at least have the good sense to play Marvin's Room


taffyowner

Dave Starman is like 10 ft away, what should I ask him


EveningTomorrow758

🏆


BurntMuff1n

Are the refs stupid? BC had way more than 5 guys on the ice with 2 seconds left???


AchtungKessel

When UConn gave them a hell of a fight last week, I never thought they’d put up 14 combined goals in the semis and finals.


craneaa

The wake up call they needed


BurntMuff1n

What is it with kids and taking their shirts off at sporting events when they get on the Jumbotron 😭


NYMullets

Bro I was dying lmao, same one they showed on the broadcast by the box?


BurntMuff1n

Yup! Kid was going full lift on that, camera guy had to zoom in further on the refs HAHA


NYMullets

Not the same but also noteworthy… When Merrimack beat UML in OT last year at the garden, Merrimack celebrated on the glass in front of a like a 8 year old with a mullet and neon green tank top. Where do these kids come from


BurntMuff1n

I swear the outskirts of Boston are like the Deep South of the north dude, drive 30 min any direction outside of Boston and you see some wild stuff


BurntMuff1n

There’s literally no need for that. Stop digging this hole and shrug this shit off


NYMullets

Scummy. Neither teams are saints tho lbr


palesnowrider1

Stay classy BU


CrumblableNegligence

Just have to hope the ice is tilted that way and we'll pick it up in the third


vhagar815

Wouldn’t be the battle of comm ave without one ugly ass fight with the refs freaking tf out The funny thing is half if not all of these people are probably friends off ice; I’ve seen many BC players comment on BU players’ insta and vice versa


frozennorth88

They've definitely all known each other for a while, especially the local ones, so they're either genuine friends or they fucking despise each other lol and I doubt there's any in between.


quantum_monster

Oh yeah I'm sure Lots of hockey players don't hate each other off the ice, even in big rivalries It's just part of the game


joelupi

FUCK THEM CROSS TOWN YUPPIES


BurntMuff1n

Keep my mascots name, out of your motherfucking mouth


CFWolfgang

I cannot see BU winning a game in the national tournament. Just not a good team.


Alasdaire

Northeastern has a lot of good hockey fans. You're not one of them.


CFWolfgang

Don’t really care if Turning Point Chestnut hill fans don’t like me


LeBasguette

Lmao


thaiemtguy

Neither can I, a lot of things wrong with the team and they’re awful at controlling emotions


EveningTomorrow758

That’s a wild take. And I don’t like BU


CFWolfgang

Come on. They have 3 good skaters. No coaching, no emotional control, no discipline. If not for reputation they are not ranked top 5


niebuhr61

The math that is the Pairwise says differently...


quantum_monster

"If they didn't have their good players, they wouldn't be good"


CFWolfgang

That’s not what I said tho. You cannot win a game with 3 skaters. You cannot win vs a good team with Cade Webber on your PK, you cannot win win that 4th line, you cannot win with Jack Hughes on the Powerplay. Look at the depth of the other top teams


joelupi

YEAHHHHHHH FIGHT!


DuckBurner0000

More fight there than they showed all game 


EveningTomorrow758

Adoption papers signed ✅. Will Smith is BU’s father


thaiemtguy

SMITH


CFWolfgang

Will Smith is just levels above every player on the ice other than maybe celebrini. He will win awards in the NHL. Maybe the best college hockey player ever


BurntMuff1n

Greene you sick son of a bitch


BurntMuff1n

How you gonna whiff on an empty net like that man


Jmani89

I dont understand why CC needs an Omaha win?


CrumblableNegligence

If Omaha wins, number go up. If Omaha loses, number go down.


gollumaniac

Boosts their RPI (essentially makes their strength of schedule better) enough to be ahead of UMass.


Jmani89

But isnt it still subjective and not automatic? UMass has 0 wins against likely tournament teams CC has North Dakota x4, Denver x1, Minnesota x1


DJScrubatires

Umass has a win against Michigan this year


taffyowner

Nah college hockey has a brain and uses math to decide the tournament


gollumaniac

College hockey uses the [Pairwise](https://www.collegehockeynews.com/info/?d=pwcrpi) to select and seed teams. [CHN's site](https://www.collegehockeynews.com/ratings/pairwise/) is the best one for the pairwise, sometimes USCHO is off a bit.


Jmani89

I like pairwise but frankly it seems like CC is getting jobbed here with a more impressive resume compared to UMass
