I don’t care if it’s Eddie Balfour, no mask in the pic!

I noticed in the Penrose picture too, he was the last one to take his off. He seemed not to know what to do with it. Think it went behind his back in his hand if I recall.

Roll on SIOUX

Should be an easy regional if UND plays their game. UMD always scares me though as they are the defending champs and always make a push in the playoffs. The Loveland regional should be some interesting hockey too.

I was at the game two years ago when American International beat then-number 1 St. Cloud (with the help of several former Bismarck Bobcats). I have never seen a group of poorer losers than the St. Cloud fans. Threw stuff on the ice, booed, generally acted like spoiled brats. I agree that if UND plays to their potential they should win, but AI got where they are for a reason.

I hate Michigan, I like Omaha playing MN, I also like Mankato in that bracket...I also like UMass and WI beating up on each other, hopefully St. Cloud can pull it together and play BC tough ... all in all I am not disappointed with the brackets...there will be a lot of Hockey on my TV this weekend

not sure what's going on here ^^^ then. maybe just based on the most recent seeding?
Pairwise (RPI) is out the window due to no interconference games. The calculations might just be automatic, but they are being ignored. Looks like the committee has made it a traditional 1-16, 2-15, 3-14, etc. type for the regionals. UND is the 1 overall seed with AIC as the 16.

Anyone know how you can stream ESPN3? Is it part of an ESPN+ bundle or what? I am not seeing much info online.

In order to watch UND football here in CA my brother and I subscribed to ESPN+ for $5.99/month. We get ESPNU there. You can cancel at any time, and we will after FB season is over but we will get the Fargo Regional Hockey Tourney also. $5.99 is lots less than a ticket at the REA!

Here are the channels that will carry the D-1 Hockey Regional and Frozen 4 tournament(s). All times are my time PDT. For CDT add 2 hours.

Friday March 26

Bridgeport
Wisconsin vs Bemidjii St. - 10am ESPN2
Lake Superior St. vs Massachusetts - 3:30pm ESPNU

Fargo
Minnesota Duluth vs Michigan - 1pm ESPNU
UND vs American Int’l – 6:30pm ESPN3

Saturday March 27

Albany
Boston College vs Notre Dame – 10am ESPNews
St. Cloud State vs Boston U – 3:30pm ESPNews

Loveland
Minnesota State vs Quinnipiac – 2pm ESPN3
Minnesota vs Omaha – 7pm ESPNU

Bridgeport finals – 2pm ESPNU

Fargo finals – 4:30pm ESPNU

Sunday March 28

Albany final – 2:30pm ESPN2

Loveland final – 5pm ESPN2

Pittsburg

April 8

Semifinal #1 – 2pm ESPN2

Semifinal #2 – 6pm ESPN2

ESPN3 is included with ESPN+ but ESPN2 and ESPNU are not included from what I can tell. It's a mess trying to figure out how to watch all the UND games , Not sure what I'll do. I guess go on an Easter egg hunt looking for free 7 day trial offers that will cover the games. They all want your money but none want to carry more than one or two good channels , I guess that's the reason why I chopped the cord.
