Scoreboard watching -- MSU out of tourney?

PucKato has the day off -- sort of. That can't keep me away from the college hockey scoreboard though. Right now, things are looking bleak for Minnesota State's NCAA chances. With championships just underway, it appears MSU needs wins by Harvard (playing Princeton) and Boston College (playing Vermont)  in order to get in or at least in close consideration. Stay tuned.

UPDATE: BC gets the job done; Harvard doesn't. That appears to put Minnesota State on the outside looking in no matter what happens in the WCHA and CCHA. What's crazy is that Wisconsin (15-16-7 overall record, 11-12-5 in WCHA, 1-2-1 record against MSU) and Notre Dame (five wins against Pairwise teams -- MSU has 11) will get in ahead of the Mavericks. The Mavericks even beat Princeton 6-1, although the Tigers were an automatic qualifier. What might ultimately be knocking the Mavericks out are the two losses to Nebraska-Omaha, especially the 4-2 loss at Mankato late in the season.
