I think Mike's just about get it pegged.  I agree with his
selection of teams, but I'll argue a little on the seedings.
 
Here's what I see:
 
East         West
1 BU         1 Mich
2 Harvard    2 Minnesota
3 Lowell     3 LSSU
4 RPI        4 Wisconsin
5 UNH        5 Western Michigan
6 MSU        6 Colorado College
 
Two problems with this:
1) UNH should be ahead of RPI, but we have to have RPI at the Knick
2) Western should be ahead of MSU, but to get MSU at home we put
  Western on the road.
 
Here's how we fix it:
 
East         West:
1 BU         1 Mich
2 Harvard    2 Minnesota
3 Lowell     3 LSSU
4 UNH        4 Wisconsin
5 WMU        5 RPI
6 MSU        6 Colorado College
 
Why this won't happen: West Regional would have six western teams,
East would have five eastern teams.  The committee will have
essentially eliminated the crossovers in play with crossovers
in the seedings.
 
The team that gets left out: St Cloud.  Made a great run for it
but the nail in their coffin is an 0-3-1 record against Colorado
College.  Clarkson will have the best record of the teams that
get left home but they are the third team in a league that
perhaps doesn't deserve two.
 
I'll be surprised if the teams selected aren't the twelve Mike
and I have listed.  I'll be equally surprised if Colorado
College doesn't wind up in Albany (the series lost to MTU likely
cost them a western spot).  Beyond that, it will be interesting
to see what happens.
