With sincerity, I bring you the 1993 NC$$ wish lists for each of the
12 teams:
 
Northern Michigan:
  Dallas Drake, Jim Hiller and Scott Beattie because Joe Frederick
  can only do so much.
 
Harvard:
  Some magic potion to cure NC$$ jitters, because going into the
  tourney with two freshman goaltenders isn't easy.  (Special 1994
  wish: A chance to defend their running regular season ECAC title
  with a full roster not too heavily depleted by the Olympics.)
 
Boston University:
  1) A shot at Harvard to avenge their loss in the Beanpot final or
  2) a shot at Northern Michigan to avenge their loss in the 1991
  national championship game.  One of these wishes will come true.
 
Brown:
  A wing and a prayer, because my biased western view doesn't see
  how they can get by Minn-Duluth, which will open up the door for
  second guessers as to why RPI didn't get in.  Basically, a solid
  effort in Detroit to quiet any critics.
 
Minnesota-Duluth:
  A HUGE tournament for Derek Plante because they finally have the
  opportunity to showcase him (and his teammates) at the national
  level.  Also, a large contingent from Ferris State at Detroit
  because Bulldogs should stick together.
 
Lake Superior:
  A healthy Brian Rolston, because that's all it may need.  Valium
  for Blaine Lacher, because he's a fine goalie but his temper
  tantrums may haunt them in the tournament.  A solid effort from
  Michael Smith, because even with his awards he's one of the most
  underrated defensemen in the nation.  A big bell to ring in
  Milwaukee, in the event that they do defend their title.
 
Wisconsin:
  Good seats for Jeff Sauer, Blaine Moore and Jason Zent to watch
  Friday's game.  The transfer of Ferris State goaltender Pat Mazzoli
  to Wisconsin in time to play Friday night, because Mazzoli damn
  near stopped Miami single-handedly in the CCHA playoffs and I'm
  sure he'd relish another chance.
 
Miami:
  The same lack of respect that they've been getting all season,
  because it may be enough to motivate them through the tourney.
 
Michigan:
  Michigan need not wish, because they have the potential for their
  dream path: 1) An opportunity to uneven the season series with Miami,
  which currently stands at 1-1-1 or an opportunity to avenge last
  year's debacle against Wisconsin (including shoving a Badger into
  the bench and holding him there while the game winning goal is
  scored 5-on-4); 2) the chance to play Maine, which many people have
  wanted to see for over two years now; and 3) a shot at Lake Superior
  in the title game to make up for the embarrassment in the CCHAs and
  keep the title in the state of Michigan for the third straight year.
 
Minnesota:
  Fans in Worchester for three reasons: 1) I like Minnesota, but I'll
  be in Detroit; 2) the players deserve it; and 3) they're gonna need
  the support because Clarkson is on fire.
 
Clarkson:
  Dave Taylor and NO fire extinguishers (see Minnesota).
 
Maine:
  The return of Jean-Yves Roy for his senior season, because then they
  could move up to the Patrick Division.
 
Best wishes to all.
 
  John H
