If college hockey allows teams to crash and burn College Hockey will probably never have teams want to start a program.
Meaning we will never see any growth.
Here is a thought do people really think the WCHA = $ would give up the third place game?
We will see. I do like the idea of starting early on Thursday, then it can become a longer three day event.
Yesssss.
I think UND will have a two headed monster in net and BE could very well be pushed hard. I also think BE needs to clean up a few things in his
game and will get better with competition.
I don't see it as that. There is still a good chance that UNO ends up in the WCHA with them getting a new AD.
There isn't going to be a vote this time around.
That is kind of what I was thinking too, the argument is that during the U-17 and U-18 Canada's best in is the playoff for the CHL and
we didn't face the best the Canada has to offer. I don't know about the other teams like the Russians.
I guess we will have to agree to disagree because I dont' think Conklin is as good as Harding.
Harding will probably eventually will be a consistant starting goalie on some one NHL club.
Conklin will be a career back up.
IMHO I think Miller is NOT as good of a goalie as Backstrom. I am surprised that the Deadthings didn't try to pry Harding away from the Wild for one of their many talented forwards they have.
