MORE SONGS ABOUT BUILDINGS AND FOOD REGIONAL
SNHU Arena, Manchester, N.H.

Noon Eastern Time - ESPN3
Cornell vs. UMass-Lowell

Holy poo poo this Lowell team. Hockey East champs after a nailbiter final with BC. Weapons everywhere. Great power play (27%), a goalie named Wall. Deep as gently caress. Cornell is no slouch and play great defensive hockey. They are by no means an offensive powerhouse, but it's hard to knock them on anything else.
SHOULD YOU WATCH THIS GAME? Maybe? Lowell should cruise but if any of the underdogs stand a chance at pulling a major upset, it's likely Cornell. Defensive-heavy teams have done it before.

3:30PM Eastern Time - ESPN-U
Notre Dame vs. Minnesota

Minnesota is a monster and Don Lucia is consistently one of the best coaches in the country. They've won 6 straight regular season conference championships (although it's questionable how good you really have to be to win the goddamn B1G :v: ) They lost in double-OT to Penn State in the tournament but were already locked into the national tournament so they got some extra rest. They score a ton of goals but goaltending's been an issue. ND had a solid late season run but comes into this game having been manhandled by UMass-Lowell.
SHOULD YOU WATCH THIS GAME? Yes. If you haven't seen Minnesota this season, check them out. A win here for the Gophers would set up a hell of a regional final with Lowell.


REMAIN IN LIGHT REGIONAL
U.S. Bank Arena, Cincinnati, Ohio

1:00PM Eastern Time - ESPN News
Fightin' Nerds vs. Denver

Nerds have a very good defense and goaltending, average offense. Denver has a spectacular defense and a number of smaller, speedy forwards that are a hoot to watch, and two goalies with GAAs under 1.85. Angus Redmond (spectacular name) has been a fantastic goalie for the Nerds, but this may be a long day for him. Mel Pearson has done a great job getting Tech back to the big dance, but Denver is the overall #1 for a very good reason.

SHOULD YOU WATCH THIS GAME? Yep. You'll see some highlight-reel worthy poo poo from both Redmond and the Denver offense, but Denver should cruise.

4:30PM Eastern time - ESPN3
Penn State vs. Union

Two teams with a lot of speed, a ton of scoring, and average at best goaltending. Union's Vecchione and Foo each have over 60 points. Smirnov has 45 for Penn State. This could easily be one of those 7-6 games.

SHOULD YOU WATCH THIS GAME? Oh hell yeah.



AND SOME FINALS OH poo poo

Boston University vs. Minnesota-Duluth : 6:00PM Eastern - ESPNU
BU has to be absolutely gassed. They survived the last 5 minutes of a third period and all of the 1st OT entirely on defense, and goaltender Jake Oettinger stole the game for them. They were out-shot 59-29 and somehow stole it in the 2nd OT in what was easily the game of the night and honestly may be the game of the tournament. Duluth went to OT with a high-powered OSU offense but should definitely be the fresher team here. That said, I wouldn't count BU out of this game at all if Oettinger has another big game.

Air Force vs. Harvard: 8:30PM Eastern - ESPNU
Air Force was the first big upset of the weekend, jumping out to a 4-1 lead on WMU and never looking back. They now draw offensive juggernaut Harvard, who easily disposed of Providence. Air Force has some good playmakers (Kyle Haak had himself a hell of a game) but they were still out of sorts for quite a bit in the Western game. Harvard has now won 19 of their last 20 games. Harvard should cruise.

Minn-Duluth beats BU in OT and will face Harvard in the Frozen Four. Give Air Force credit, 2 goals in like 20 seconds and threw everything at them at the end but came up short.

Notre Dame upsets Minnesota and will draw UMass-Lowell, who shut out Cornell.

Penn State destroyed Union but now has to stare down Denver, who comfortably cruised by Fightin' Nerds after a 4 goal 1st period.

Penn State as a hockey team is at least entertaining.

Penn State as both a school and fan and alumni base is a goddamn cult that reacted to the decades-long enabling and cover-up of child rape by attacking those that brought it to light and flipping news vans.

Last 2 regional finals today! Both games on ESPN-U

3:30PM - UMass-Lowell vs. Notre Dame
Notre Dame came back from a 2-0 deficit and shocked Minnesota. Anders Bjork was massive and credit ND for pulling it off. That said, Lowell has had ND's number all year, culminating in Lowell smoking ND 5-1 in the Hockey East semis. Lowell beat Cornell in a 5-0 shutout and their defense looked fantastic. I'd expect ND to keep this closer than the last time they played, but Lowell looks spectacular right now.

6:00PM - Penn State vs. Denver
Oh man this could be a lot of fun. Penn State scores a ton of goals, Denver allows almost none and has one of the country's best goalies in Jaillet. Penn State has a questionable defense but it has improved. Both have great special teams. This should be a hoot.
