Part of the most talented college team ever TO NOT win a national championship.

Good, they can join the overhyped Fab Five, who had all their banners taken down due to potential recruiting violations. At least, that's the last I heard, don't know if they pulled a Paterno and put them back up.

In case people didn't know, I hate the Michigan Wolverines. Somewhat conflicted on the Fab Five since two of them played for the Nuggets, but that still stands as one of the biggest choke jobs in sports history. This one with this hockey team...kinda ranks up there as well if you ask me. Insane talent throughout that roster. They really could have won it but just didn't play to their capabilities until it was too late in OT.

According to one of the guys they brought on NHL Radio, they played well below their capabilities throughout the tournament, the guy in question saying they almost got away with winning a national title without playing a good game.

Three points in three games, including a goal against Ottawa tonight. Finally some good news for this crap team.
