Message: [QUOTE="omniorange, post: 1432591, member: 636"] There's a difference between being "fine" and elite. Your arguments were used in the past for why a Catholic Big East conference in basketball would be "fine" as well. Two years in despite getting 10 bids they have only gotten 1 team into the S16 and none beyond that point. Again, facilities, coaching, equipment, etc did them in for men's bb and I believe those same things will eventually be proven true in hockey. Hockey East has been fortunate in that no power conference has decided to challenge them in hockey. But the B1G seems set to do so. Bet against them if you want, but I am not. Cheers, Neil [/QUOTE]
