Wait the year out doesn't mean not watch the games on TV. It just means I know it's not a title season whereas for the last four or five they have been contenders and in with a chance.

Glad to know that you already know who the winner is, the seasons first game hasn’t even been played yet. Any of a number of teams can win it. At this time Minnesota has just as good a chance as anyone. Your such a pessimist it’s ridiculous.

Tufte (UMD) and Buium (DU) are the only ones in like the last 8 years or so. You then have boeser and schmaltz (think he was a 1st rounder) from unds titleDoes anyone have a list of how many 1st round draft picks have been on the last few champs?
Michigan (and BC) of course have won 5 or so preseason titles in the last few years so depends on whether you believe in real titles or bonins preseason anointing
Go crawl in a hole! Christ you’re a dickhead. Michigan has shown that so well lately. All those draft picks and they’ve been kept off the board for years now. Any team can win it at any time. Are some better then others on paper before a game has even been played, yes, doesn’t matter they all start from game one of the season.Different ballgame now that more first round picks are able to come down. More teams with first rounders will win titles.

For all at home, this means only ASU, BC, BU, Mich, MSU, UND, PSU and WI are the only teams that should watch this year. Luckily that means we’ve already got the frozen four and basically every team aside from any pesky autobids already locked into the tournament and Bonin should be able to sell his tickets for good profit as und is basically a lock to be there with 2 first rounders and a guy who will go top 3 next year
As a side note, I also bet more Canadians win titles so the season is over if you don’t have a bunch of them too. And guys who formerly played in the CHL.
Nobody said wmu had a chance last year either. It’s harder and you have to play better team hockey to do so then just outtalent teams, but if that was the case BC, BU and Michigan would’ve won every year for the last decade. Don’t know if I see this team as being able to do it, but that feeling wouldn’t have changed if Rombach was taken 3 picks earlier (hence why the first round comment is even more obscenely silly)
