It's rare you find a goalie who jumps ship early and has success right off the bat. He'll stay at least one more. Goalies take a lot more time to develop than skaters. Congrats on the amazing season. He's been a huge part of where we are now.
Knew that, but I was wondering more so to why they couldn't just leave it with the WCHA? Entrust it to a winner in the conference. I don't think they'll be winning it anytime soon.
I'm not sure how it all works. It would be nice to see in the last year if Tech leaves the team who wins it (or the team with the highest rank that is staying in the WCHA) would become the trustee.
I think there are bigger things to worry about, like winning the tournament, getting the first round bye. Plus we have been called North Dakota State University in the past, this is relatively minor.
I would think (rather, I would hope) they are both assuming that they are the one going to be playing. So mental preparation shouldn't be an issue (I hope). No way do I see either of them assuming that they are not playing and slacking off. It isn't the greatest move to keep them hanging in limbo though.
I'm fine with this idea under one condition, it doesn't replace any games that are supposed to be played in REA.
Edit: Should have read the GFH article.

Terrible news. I've lost two people close to me in separate car accidents, and almost a third. It's one of the worst ways to lose someone. This is a about as tragic as you can get. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families.
