I remember reading that, thought I posted it, but I guess not. I took it as they could benefit from the study not that they are part of the study.
I am surprised there hasn't been more on the study and who's going to be part of the study.
Kohl Center is going with a score board like the one at Madison Square Garden (or at least similar to it). So one of similar scale of Amalie Arena or the Xcel Energy Center could work. The hight of the score board at Amalie Arena looks to be close to about the same as the whole score/video board in the Ralph. Most of these score boards in the NHL have small screens underneath for the rows closer the the ice to see replays in the board. The ice projection system costs at least $1 million.
I'm sure the school could repurpose the score/video board in the Olympic arena or maybe the Betty.
It is time to move on with the whole nickname issue, nobody won and we all lost.
With Wisconsin getting a new score/video board I think its time for the Ralph to get a NHL style score/video board and an on-ice projection system. It's time to be ahead of the rest of the NCAA.
It can still be done today. Michigan Tech went to Europe about 5 years ago to play teams in Europe, not 100% sure if they played pro teams. An NCAA team can only play out of the country once every 4 years (doesn't include two NCAA teams playing each other in Canada).
The NCHC needs to do games like the UND BC game at Madison Square Garden.
I'm not a fan of outdoor games at all, but at some point UND will be in another outdoor game.
Possibility of a game in Nashville and if UND played an outdoor game at Target Field it would most likely be against one of the other Minnesota teams and not the Gophers.

The NCHC needs to continue that hockey showcase each year.
