Yesterday was the first time I have heard about Bellevue as a possible location. I don't know where it would be located, but it would be a transportation nightmare no matter where it was in Bellevue. Anybody know who is behind the Bellevue proposal(s)?
No - I don't think you should recognize someone that leaves in the middle of the year. If things aren't working out then make a change after the season.
Based on what I have seen at other FFs, and that this is already a sellout, tickets will be hard to get. There are lots of college hockey fans that go to the FF even if their team isn't in it.
