We take on the big boys for a berth in the finals.

Should be tough... but if we win we prove what kind of a team we have.

Winner will face the winner of Delaware v. Lindenwood.

i was thinking we would get the winner of the 4/5 game, but i guess we get number 1 because we are the lowest seed left.

go flames!

i dont think Ill has lost yet this year. It'd be nice to give them an early going away present.

[hockeyalumniguy]

they reseed the teams for the semifinals, so Liberty, being the lowest seed, play the highest seed.

[matshark]

Gotcha.

Personally I think they should just run the brackets straight up. I mean why penalize a team for making a good run?

Oh well, I guess they just want to try and ensure that the number 1 team is in the finals, but then again, don't they have to beat everyone anyways?

I think the NHL re-seeds, too...so why not run it like the pros??

[Sly Fox]

If we are going to be national champs then Illinois has to go down sometime. So why not today?

[bigsmooth]

NO DOUBT!! it's time for the illini to go down!!

[matshark]

I agree. Although It would be nice to get a little bit easier road into the finals, but you never know. If Binner stays on fire, I don't think it will matter what Illinois does, and our guys have been finding lots of ways to put the puck in the back of the net, so I'd say we have a very good chance of knocking them off.

Any updates on the game?

PBP?

LU down 2-0 in First.

[Sly Fox]

Its 5 bucks for the shaky webcast ... surely one of you guys without a wife & kids can spring for it.

[matshark]

Thats no bueno!

defensive lapses?

IL has a really good defense. We are gonna need to convert pretty much every chance we get.

Lets go BOYS!

[Sly Fox]

We are still down 2-0 in the 2nd.
