Well, it ought to be an interesting ending.

GOAL! WHAT A POKE CHECK TO LEAD TO THAT!

Yes!

Boom. Sad gophers. Love it.

They've gone like 5 years since winning any playoff series to national champs.

our turn?

Love this!! THIS is why I love college hockey. That flip pass was MONEY! Pond chit.

Nice. Way to go, Union! Congrats to them.

Would have been even nicer if we weren't subjected to Barry's yapping.

A little too late now, but I was told by my father (GoldBlooded himself) that the game was on ESPN3.com without commentary or play-by-play.

All in all a really fun set of games in Philadelphia, lots of good fans there, even a few Broncos. Ended up sitting next to a Denver fan for both games, a really pleasant experience to say the least.

First NCAA bid ever in 2011. Won the conference 3 years in a row now. Amazing.

Anyone offhand have the number of total goals scored?

By my quick math, 88 Goals were scored.

So the closest there were stdatwmu and SonOfGoldBlooded who each picked 80

There was a guy in the pool who picked every single game correctly and had 90 for the # of goals scored. He missed a perfect bracket by 2 goals. Wow.

That's incredible.

This year's goal total was a bit higher than the last few years.
2013: 77
2012: 76
2011: 79

...and everyone thought I picked too many!

If I recall, me being my data-loving self, I calculated something like 2.67 goals/game/team and multiplied it out.

Considering I entered on a last-minute whim, I'm pretty satisfied with where everything ended up.

Congrats, SilentStryk09!
