It’s not an easy road to get to the Frozen Four – but these 16 teams are going to do...
In what has been another exciting college hockey season, it is time to see which team has what it takes to move on to the Frozen Four of the NCAA Men’s Hockey Tournament.
—to future NHLers Ryan Leonard and Gabe Perrault, the Eagles are in many people’s brackets to advance to the Frozen Four.NHL affiliates: Brady Cleveland, D , Daniel Laatsch, D , Zach Shulz, D , Carson Bantle, LW , Tyson Dyck, C , Quinn Finley, LW , Owen Lindmark, C , Cruz Lucius, RW , Owen Mehlenbacher, C , Sam Strange, RW , Charlie Stramel, C , William Whitelaw, C
Collin Graf leads the team into the tournament after being named ECAC Player of the Year, leading the conference in goals and points . The Hobey Baker finalist is currently tied for 10th in the NCAA in scoring. With very little NHL-drafted power on this team, look for Graf – someone receiving significant attention from pro teams – to play a huge role.Michigan Tech is quietly coming into the national tournament for the third consecutive season.
Though it has only been two years since DU won it all, the program has seen a lot of turnover, but that has not stopped David Carle from putting together another championship contender. The Pioneers were once again one of the top teams in the NCHC, winning the conference championship for the first time since 2018.
Last season, the Big Red came within a goal of advancing to the Frozen Four for the first time in 20 years. This year, the team feels it has what it takes to sneak its way to St. Paul. Like Cornell, the Minutemen aren’t going to score their way out of problems but have a couple of good blueliners in Scott Morrow and Ryan Ufko, who can generate offense. Cornell vs. Maine – Thursday, 5:30 p.m.
While the Mavericks have not necessarily been a bad team over their history, it has been a while since they have been good enough to play well into March like this. Omaha had not been to the NCAA Tournament in three years, but Mike Gabinet’s team crept back up the NCHC standings thanks to all-conference honorable mention goaltender Simon Latkoczy. The Mavs stunned North Dakota in the conference semifinals before losing to Denver in the championship game.
