Since it is now Wednesday afternoon, I will probably accept no more entries
into the contest.  We now have 56 people entered, a little down from the
Regular Season Contest (whose results I hope to have out later today, along
with the media results and the Hockey-L consensus results) but not too bad on
such short notice.  I'm expecting the numbers to go up for the NC$$ tournament
(they'd better, or you'll know what's good fer ya!).
 
Anyway, the results from last night's games and the "odds," according to the
56 entrants, on Thursday's game between Providence and New Hampshire:

             Thursday- Providence vs. New Hampshire (at BC)
                                        No. entrants            % of total

                          UNH                52                   92.86%
 
ECAC- Tuesday- Princeton 5, Union 2
                                        No. entrants            % of total
                          Union              10                   17.86%
                          Princeton          46                   82.14%
 
               Cornell 6, St. Lawrence 2
                                        No. entrants            % of total
                          Cornell            32                   57.14%
                          SLU                24                   42.86%
 
CCHA- Tuesday- Ohio State 7, Alaska-Fairbanks 2
                                        No. entrants            % of total
                          UAF                41                   73.21%
                          OSU                15                   26.79%
 
BTW, no one picked all four of Tuesday's games correctly.  There were a number
who got three of the four right.  So, the maximum that anyone can get nationallywill be 158 points.
 
I should have time by tomorrow to have tabulated the odds for the other three
quarterfinal matchups in HE as well as the quarterfinal series in the ECAC and
the first round match-ups in the CCHA and the WCHA.
