Prospect Info: NCAA Tournament March 28-April 13, 2024

[MarkovsKnee]

Denver wins in OT. Harris very much involved. He was standing right in front of Hrabal, and was battling with the D so hard refs reviewed to ensure he didn't interfere with Hrabal. He didn't.

3 things I like about Harris: he goes to the front of the net & stays there; he's good defensively, and plays a hard 200 foot game.

He needs to work on his lower body strength. He has the type of game that could make him an effective bottom 6 forward. He's bulldog-ish.

Denver wins 2-1 in 2OT, and move on to Regional Finals.

Goaly Caron had a very good first for BU, Hutson with an amasing move on his goal

Oh yeah, Denver is #3 ranked team in the nation. UMass was the last team picked for tournament. It would have been a major upset for UMass to win.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

3-1 BU. Hutson a pretty primary assist.

A goal, and an assist for our Hutson.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Also, it should be noted that Hutson actually skated backwards to make that pass too.

 

[teamfirst]

Oh year, Denver is #3 ranked team in the nation. UMass was the last team picked for tournament. It would have been a major upset for UMass to win.

Thanks, just found the bracket on the NCAA site, BU if they win gonna face the winner of Omaha-Minn who plays later tonight i guess

He can actually skate backwards? According to experts around here, he isn't capable.

That's why I had to mention it. A rare sighting!

Oh well, this Hutson kid seems pretty good to me but what do i know

Yes, they'll play either Omaha or Minn on Saturday. It's one game elimination. You lose. You're out. If they win on Saturday, they're going to Frozen Four tournament April 11 & 13, which is the same. Single game elimination.

He definitely has things to improve on, but his "shortcomings" are overblown. Can't wait to see him prove everyone wrong.

Agree, the little i saw from him, WJC and some BU games i've been very impress by the skills this kid has, can't wait to see him in MTL or Laval

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Ditto. He's really good at using his body & stick to defend. His stick is always in the right position. He uses it come overtop on opponent's stick so they can't use there's, and effectively uses his lower body strength to get under guys positionally.

He's a really, really smart player.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

3-2. RIT scores with 4 minutes left in 2nd.

Steps out of penalty box, gets break away & scores. It was 4 on 4

BU challenging for off-side.

 

[teamfirst]

On side

 

[SlafySZN]

Is Lane season finished if they lose this game? Or it’s saturday

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Is Lane season finished if they lose this game? Or it’s saturday

It's finished if BU loses tonight.

 

[teamfirst]

it was very close

 

[MarkovsKnee]

On-side. 3-2. BU loses time-out. Not a PP for RIT.

 

[teamfirst]

What a goal lol

 

[MarkovsKnee]

it was very close

Ridiculously close.

4-2. BU scores. Celebrini goal.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Their season is done if they lose from here on out.

 

[Rapala]

Also, it should be noted that Hutson actually skated backwards to make that pass too.

Yeah but can he chew gum while doing it?

The Jury is still out.

 

[teamfirst]

Ridiculously close.

4-2. BU scores. Celebrini goal.

Trying to find the teams ranking cant find it but when i look at the scroreboard on the CHN site theres a number beside the teams name like number 2 beside BU, and 3 beside Denver is it their ranking in the NCAA, if so do you happen to know wich teams are 1 and 4, i guess it's BC and Michigan but not sure

It's not quite like basketball's March Madness. The #10 ranked school is Colorado College and they're not at this tournament.

Basically the top 4 schools are seeded, 1-4. That's 1. Boston College. 2. Boston University. 3. University of Denver. 4. Michigan State.

After that it depends on Conference Championships, and then selection day where they determine who should be added.

The other schools at this tournament are ranked nationally as:

5. North Dakota
6. Minnesota
7. Quinnipiac
8. Maine
9. Wisconsin
11. Michigan
12. Omaha
14. Western Michigan
15. Cornell
16. UMass
19. RIT
Not ranked top 20: Michigan Tech

#13 ranked Providence isn't here. #17 & #18 aren't either. That's New Hampshire & St. Cloud, respectively.

BC gets the lowest ranked school, which is MT
BU gets RIT
Denver UMass
Michigan St. gets W. Michigan
