Path to BG winning MacNaughton:
BG: Regulation win
Tommies: SO win
Kato: 2 points

That's not a highly unreasonable scenario to play out.

Here's a crazy scenario where Augie wins the MacNaughton:
Augie: 50
BG: OTW or SOW (49 pts for BG and Tech)
MNSU and UST: OTL or SOL (49 pts each)

That's a 4-way tie for second place. I think we lose out and travel to Mankato.

Crazy thing is I think there needs to be more than one team to tie with BG and Augie for BG to win that tie breaker. Any ties, somebody is going to feel screwed.

This is absolutely wild.

Here's to a Falcon Win and 3rd or higher.

3 bad losses at home leave us our present situation:

Dec 5 1-0 vs a NMU team that was win less
Jan 17 1-0 vs LSSU, despite multiple quality scoring opportunities
Feb 20 5-4 vs MSU...blew 3-1 lead...scored 4 on league's top goalie and still lost

Win any 2 of these 3 games and we're conference champs regardless of what happens tonight...and well inside NCAA bubble.

One goal. That’s it. That’s the difference between winning the MacNaughton and traveling for the playoffs.

OK, I’m exaggerating a bit. But not a lot.

Pfoh is in the lineup tonight.

Pfoh is in the lineup tonight.

Coach said Tuesday he wanted to play last Saturday. We'll see how many minutes he's actually out there. That's an extremely rough injury to overcome in that short of time.

Up 2-0 through the first 15 minutes, but our second goal is under review for goalie interference.

[BGhockeyfan94]

Overturned by having our foot in the crease while the goalie was halfway outside the crease. Still 1-0.

I thought the rule was changed in recent years such that merely standing in the crease was not sufficient to overturn a goal. ??

I thought so too, but that's what they announced. I could see maybe goalie interference with his foot being in the crease, but I don't think the crease matters for goalie interference for college hockey.

1-0 after the first. Was all Tech after the goal got overturned, Palmer with some massive saves to keep us in the lead.

Early in the 2nd period trying to kill a 5 on 3, can't take bad penalties.
