NCAA Hockey Tournament

Starting today, I will post once a week with a predicted NCAA hockey tournament bracket. This is really just my take, as I was bored and there is no Joe Lunardi for us college hockey fans. Remember, it is REALLY early in the process so it will definitely change big time in the next 2 months, but this will give you a general idea of where Michigan is in relation to the rest of the college hockey world.

East Regional (Bridgeport)

1 Yale vs. 14 UNO

8 Boston College vs. 9 Wisconsin

Midwest Regional (Green Bay)

2 Minnesota-Duluth vs. 16 RIT

7 Notre Dame vs. 10 Merrimack

West Regional (St. Louis)

4 Denver vs. 13 Union

5 Michigan vs. 12 Dartmouth

Northeast Regional (Manchester)

3. North Dakota vs. 15 RPI

6 New Hampshire vs. 11 Western Michigan

Notes:

• Poor Yale, being the only non-WCHA 1 seed is stuck playing UNO.
• Miami not being in it is the biggest example of why this will definitely change between now and once March 20th rolls around.
• Biggest goal at this point is bracket integrity, thus North Dakota in Manchester and Denver in St Louis
