I'm pretty sure in the past when the Gophs were the #2 seed the league had them play the evening semifinal in the hope of selling more tickets than if they played the afternoon semifinal.
Any one have any idea if that will happen this year?
If the top 3 seeds advance from the first round, UND will be in the same bracket as the Gophs. The house will be rockin' if the Fighting Susies fans have all day to get lubed up.
I suspect that the WCHA would not announce whether #1 plays in the evening or afternoon semifinal until after the first round is complete.
