This was the first time such a streak had occurred since the first three NCAA men’s ice hockey tournaments from 1948-1950, when Michigan, Boston College and Colorado College each won their first title. The championship game is remembered for a gaffe goal that allowed Providence to tie the score with less than 10 minutes to play.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N58_speevDo 2015 NCAA BU vs Providence Hockey National Championship Highlights - YouTube YouTube April 12, 2015 Tournament procedure USA 450 right 2015 Regionals (blue) and Frozen Four (red) USA blue pog.svg 41.8236 -71.4222 bottom #FFFFFF Providence Dunkin' Donuts Center USA blue pog.svg 42.9908 -71.4636 top #FFFFFF Manchester Verizon Wireless Arena USA blue pog.svg 41.6725 -86.2552 left #FFFFFF South Bend Compton Family Ice Arena USA blue pog.svg 46.8772 -96.7894 top #FFFFFF Fargo Scheels Arena USA red pog.svg 42.3580 -71.0636 right #FFFFFF Boston TD Garden The tournament will feature four groups of four teams, organized into regional brackets.
