Well, you certainly got me there!  I guess from that perspective Hockey
East is quite spoiled.  After all, except Maine, all the schools aren't

Makes me wish I had seen more games while I was there now that I am
trapped in Football Hell in Syracuse (which as far as I can tell is an
overgrown and alienated suburb of Buffalo)!
