Me too. Font is a bit off (too fat?). I’ve always liked Wisconsin’s jerseys with the simple diagonal. Wouldn’t mind copying their font and putting the UND sticks logo on the shoulders.
My guess is that ESPN sets these times. And it’s the right call. Penn State is a known national commodity and I would guess their fans will travel. Good optics for college hockey.
I thought they were the better team and carried play. Penn State breaks out fast, though. A very good game for two teams battling for their first Frozen Four.
Hope BC can use that challenge to turn the tides a bit. As much as I like the idea of rooting for the NCHC, did we cheer for Minnesota b/c of the WCHA??
Say what you will about penn state, but it is fun to see another school really embrace college hockey. Would be fun to be at the frozen four with them.
I had an idea for a 2 site “super regional” a couple years ago. Basically you have two 8-team regionals in “hockey cities” like Boston, Detroit, St. Paul, and Denver (rotate year to year) to whittle down to your Frozen Four. Then the Frozen Four would alternate between warm weather cities like Tampa and Las Vegas.
I have a friend who used to work with Brad at the Herald. I’ve met Brad a couple times but we are not friends. I can tell you that his professionalism as a journalist is of the highest standard. College hockey as a whole is fortunate to have a guy like Brad working as a beat writer.
