2017 D1 Frozen Four

[Adios]

Harvard, Notre Dame, Minnesota-Duluth and Denver advance to Chicago for the national championship.

Anyone but Notre Dame! I'll be cheering for Harvard. Sadly.

 

[FDNY99]

Denver looked really good and solid. Harvard showed some good speed, but Air Force gave them a good run. ND doesn't impress me at all. UM-D doesn't either.

I was surprised ND beat UMass Lowell. I'll be rooting for Harvard too. Strange not having any HE teams.

Technically, Notre Dame is still a HE school, even if they are leaving.

Bah. Twice traitors.

Harvard lost to UMD in the first semifinal game with the GW scored with 26.6 seconds remaining in the 3rd period, 2-1. Harvard hit the crossbar with 3.9 seconds left. Damn. Pioneers/Fighting Irish next.

 

[Adios]

Denver up on Notre Dame, 2-0, after one period.

Esposito's shot that hit the crossbar with 3.9 seconds left. 13 Frozen Fours, still just 1 championship.

 

[Adios]

Denver is embarrassing Notre Dame, 3-0 now in the second, 5 minutes to go. Notre Dame fan exodus has begun.

So after years of eastern schools winning, the trophy has headed back west for a couple of years...one way or another.

Denver is hugely impressive: they have steamrolled everyone they've played in the tourney so far.

Wilted shamrock

 

[Adios]

3-1, Denver, start of the third and DU defenseman goes down, snapping his ankle against the board. This is going to be hard to get out of my head.

 

[Adios]

UMD scores with 5 minutes left. 3-2 Denver.

Announced attendance 19,783 for national championship game.

 

[Adios]

DU goalie holds down the fort and DU wins, 3-2. Tied with UND for 2nd most national titles at 8.
