    Well, I for one think that Clarkson can beat Minnesota (as much respect as
I have for Golden Gopher hockey).
 
>      I think two eastern teams will be in the final, probably Maine and BU.
 
    I agree with the two eastern teams in the final, but in a *MILD* upset, I'm
picking Brown to upset BU and *EARN* the right to challenge Maine in the
Championship Game, with Maine winning by a score of 7-3, simply because their
firepower will be just too much for Brown to handle, although Brown will put
up a gutsy effort.
 
...Maine scares the heck out of me.
 
    Me too.

    Sounds all too familiar.
