		<title>First look at end of Friday night PWR possibilities</title>

		<title>PWR possibilities Friday morning update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Duluth losing had the biggest impact on&#8230; Duluth.
However, contrary to popular wisdom, I still see Duluth as possibly getting in.  I&#8217;m getting a 1/220 chance of UMD finishing #12 and a 1/25 chance of UMD finishing #13 or higher.
Here&#8217;s the rub, and why no one else agrees with me &#8212; I can&#8217;t duplicate it [...]]]></description>

		<title>WCHA Final Five Preview: UND vs. Minnesota-Duluth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When these two teams met in Grand Forks in February, Duluth was ranked #6 and was in the top ten in the Pairwise rankings, while North Dakota was ranked #11 and, at 13th in the Pairwise, was squarely on the bubble for the national tournament.
In February and March, North Dakota has gone 9-2-0, while Minnesota-Duluth [...]]]></description>

		<title>Without Genoway, UND&#8217;s blueliners have held their own</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite only having senior defenseman Chay Genoway for 9 out of the 39 games played to this point, this year&#8217;s D corps have surpassed last year in a number of different areas.
For the entire 2008-2009 season (43 games), Fighting Sioux blueliners scored 13 goals and added 55 assists for 68 points.  This year, through [...]]]></description>

		<title>Non-UND PWR Possibilities</title>
		<description><![CDATA[UND&#8217;s possible PWR outcomes are pretty predictable at this point, but that doesn&#8217;t mean there&#8217;s no excitement.  Quite a few more teams than intuition might suggest are capable of falling out of the tournament field.
Here are the possible final PWR ranges for each team that&#8217;s still a possible TUC.  There could be some [...]]]></description>

		<title>One last look at PWR</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Look back
I should have done this last week, but the end of the season is a good time to look back at the first end of season prediction.  With 8 games remaining, I predicted the following:

UND went on to win 7 of its last 8 and landed at #5 in the PWR.
As for last [...]]]></description>

		<title>WCHA First Round Playoff Preview: UND vs. Minnesota</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Minnesota’s playoff history in Grand Forks is dreadful.  Not only have the Gophers never beaten the Fighting Sioux at North Dakota in the playoffs (0-6), but Minnesota has also lost playoff games in Grand Forks to Harvard and Princeton, along with some other team in the 2006 West Regional.
The recent playoff history away from [...]]]></description>

		<title>WCHA play-in weekend PWR possibilities</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This one&#8217;s a little different because each team could play 2 or 3 games.
Due to limitations of the simulator, I assume that every series other than UND/Minnesota will finish in two games.  So, the extremes of these predictions are about right, but the frequency distributions in the middle could be a little off.
Without further [...]]]></description>

		<title>Weekend Preview: UND vs. Michigan Tech</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend’s games will mark the 15th and 16th meetings between the two teams in the past three seasons.  In addition to the normal league schedule, the two teams met at the Great Lakes Invitational in December 2008 and faced each other in the league playoffs each of the past two seasons.

		<title>PWR forecast for Mar. 8</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s that time of year, the season is winding down, and the number of remaining possible outcomes is declining dramatically, such that the PWR is becoming much more predictable.  PWR aficionados know that in coming weeks the &#8220;You are the Committee&#8221; calculators (which allow you to punch in game outcomes and give you back [...]]]></description>
