I think the worst thing they did was combining the girls and boys tournament together. I used to coach a while back and during the coaches meeting on Saturday morning the coach of the Grand Forks girls team was upset with the lack of atmosphere present in the REA main rink that his girls played in the day before. He thought it was better in the smaller olympic facility.
Matt Malm, god rest his soul, actually at one point said that the boys tournament should be moved to Minot if scheduling and facilities were becoming an issue.
The coaches don't like moving to different facilities, the players don't like it. Lets just split the two up again or play them on different weekends.
