Rick N. Backer Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 http://www.ncaa.com/...he-championship Yes, I know college hockey doesn't have the same following that college hoop has. But you also don't have East Overshoe Community College getting blown out of the arena by For All Intents and Purposes Pro Athletes U. in the Frozen Four tournament. This year the finals are in Boston, with regional games in Manchester, NH, South Bend, IN, Fargo, ND (oh, yahh? Yahhh) and Providence, RI. If you like hockey, this tournament is amazing. Anybody else follow it? *crickets* :) I fear those heathens from Boston University could win it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont watch college hockey or follow it too much, but one of the greatest hockey games Ive seen was the National Championship in 2002, Minnesota vs Maine. Minnesota down 3-2, pulled the goalie with a minute left and scored to send it to OT, Minnesota scored in OT to win 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g under p Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I follow college hockey especially Boston University Terriers. My sister graduated from there and cousins, anyway I hope BU takes it again.

I doubt they will beat BU. Only way that they would have a chance of making the NCAA tournament is by winning the HE tourney and getting an at large bid.

goose Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Please. Please God. Stop those heathens from BU.Crazy match today! That first ten minutes was wild! Two Boston goals back to back within five seconds of each other! Then of course, the third period with Providence coming from behind. Epic!!!! http://www.bostonher..._at_frozen_four http://www.ncaa.com/...cehockey-men/d1 http://www.ncaa.com/game/icehockey-men/d1/2015/04/11/providence-boston-u Edited April 12, 2015 by goose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But man, I almost threw up for Matt O'Connor, the goalie who dropped the puck in his own net to tie the game. Playoff college hockey (if you like hockey to begin with) is as exciting as it gets IMO.
