The Jackets are buzzzzzzzin’. Since we talked about American International a few weeks ago, they are undefeated after consecutive sweeps of Niagara and Army West Point. They’re playing their best hockey at the right time and they should be the clear favorites in the Atlantic heading into the final stretch.

But….

Their toughest tests are still in front of them. They’ve got a weekend roadie out to Arizona to face another surging team in #12 Arizona State. If AIC wins at least one of these games, I’m all in on them.

All they’ve gotta do is win the Atlantic, right? Well, yes. But conference tournaments can be fickle beasts. One bad game, one loss can erase the Jackets from going to their first-ever NCAA tournament. Air Force is still looming and they’ve got plenty of experience in winning the Atlantic, but this is American International’s season. Keep buzzin’ boys.
