On a bonus episode (No. 52) of The CCHA Reporter's Corner, co-hosts Jared Rubado and Trent Singer welcome in Tech Hockey Guide's Tim Braun to discuss the fallout following a thrilling final week of regular-season action in the CCHA.

Augustana was the only team that wasn't in league action on the final weekend. Still, somehow, the Vikings still found themselves sitting in first place in the CCHA standings following a Friday night in which none of the other four teams in contention for first place were able to leapfrog Augustana for the top spot.

That set up a thrilling finish to the regular season Saturday night, with eyes from all across the college hockey landscape falling on the CCHA to witness how it would end.

Bowling Green emerged with a 4-3 road win over MTU in overtime to capture five of six possible points, locking the Vikings into the No. 3 spot at the very least, before Minnesota State scored two late goals, including an empty-netter, to come away with a 3-0 win over Northern Michigan, which moved the Mavericks into at least a share of the MacNaughton Cup.

That left a final game in Bemidji to carry a lot of weight.

St. Thomas eventually claimed a shootout win over Bemidji State following a 2-2 tie, giving the Tommies the No. 2 seed and clinching MSU's eighth outright claim to the MacNaughton Cup in the last nine years.

In the end, there were a pair of two-way tiebreakers to decide teams that finished with only one point of each other. UST won its tiebreaker over an Augustana team it went 0-1-2 against in the regular season, while MTU claimed its tiebreaker against BGSU despite the Falcons earning five of six possible points in the regular-season finale.

Needless to say, the conference took a lot of flack for its tiebreaker scenarios in a season that was a bit of an anomaly.

In this episode, Rubado, Singer and Braun recap the weekend from their own perspectives, sensibly address some of the backlash and close things out with questions from listeners.

It's time for a little prognosticating on this week's episode of The CCHA Reporter's Corner.

On the 51st episode of the show, co-hosts Jared Rubado and Trent Singer make their best guesses as to which players in the CCHA will garner the individual accolades.

With a week remaining in the regular season, there's still a lot to be decided among a number of the league's awards. However, the names in the running have mostly been decided.

The conference race remains a heated battle heading into the final weekend of play, with three home-ice spots and a MacNaughton Cup champion still to be decided.

From CCHA Defensive Defenseman of the Year to Player of the Year, Rubado and Singer discuss a litany of names in the running for the conference's top individual honors.

In a league full of elite netminders, which player will nab the award for Goaltender of the Year? Which forwards are emerging in a neck-and-neck race for Forward of the Year? What will the all-conference first team and all-rookie team look like?

Rubado and Singer talk about all that and more in this hour-long episode.

The 50th episode of The CCHA Reporter's Corner takes a bit of a detour this week.

With busy schedules on the docket, co-hosts Jared Rubado and Trent Singer went outside the conference to talk with a legend of college hockey, inviting in longtime Boston University hockey broadcaster Bernie Corbett.

For 41 years, Corbett has been the play-by-play voice for the Terriers. A 1983 graduate of BU, Corbett is also the host of a SIRIUS/XM NHL Radio show called Hockey On Campus, and just last weekend, Corbett was honored with Bernie Bobblehead Night at Agganis Arena in Boston.

In this episode, Corbett talks about his early days of watching BU hockey before he got into broadcasting in college.

Corbett then takes the co-hosts down memory road, recapping what it was like to watch the Terriers win the program's fourth national title in 1995.

Corbett also talks about BU's 2009 run to a national championship, the third in which Hall of Fame coach Jack Parker led the program.

A man full of stories, Corbett discusses his favorite memories of the annual Beanpot tournament, including the infamous Blizzard of 1978 when several hundred fans were stuck at the Boston Garden for several days.

Of course, it wouldn't be fitting if Corbett didn't get the opportunity to talk about his passions outside of hockey. The longtime broadcaster has co-authored more than a dozen books on various different topics, including his all-time favorite band, The Rolling Stones. Corbett talks about how fulfilling the process was to get to explore the roots of his favorite band.
