    2016 World Cup of Hockey

    in Non-collegiate sports

    Posted

    I don't think the World Cup of Hockey is going to succeed. It didn't work last time. 

    I'm on the get rid of Gary Bettmen bandwagon.  NBC isn't going to stop Olympic broadcast to show NHL games. If Bettman was smart he'd realize that if the USA wins the gold the NHL benefits as does the sport.

    Looks like Bill Foley will help UNLV go D1 but want's others to help before he donates to the hockey team. How Steve Carp doesn't mention the Engelstad family as a possible donor, he did say UND - Minnesota should play in T-Mobile Arena.

    UND and the Big Sky could go FBS

    Next week Montana has scheduled a press conference next week to show  a new athletic finances study.

    It must be news worthy as they wouldn't schedule a press conference.

    In 2011, Denver Pioneers people said the Montanas almost moved to the WAC.

    Could Montana be the first to move to the WAC, which will give it the right to go FBS Later?

    Idaho, Montana, and MSU seem to like UND's potential, as Idaho wanted us in the BSC or else their contract to move was void.

    Those schools one would think would want to partner with NDSU to go FBS.  But instead they have chosen UND.  Maybe their President know more about UND's possible donors than we do.

    A Montana move to the WAC even without FBS now would set off an earthquake in the Big Sky.

    A WAC and Big Sky FCS divisions.  Divisions have been talked about by everyone in the Big Sky.  This might be the moment.

    BTW, October 4th ends Rosh Hashanah, which is the end of this Jubilee year.

    Corresponding, there are a lot of financial reports that the dollar may no longer be the world currency on Sept 30th.  Instead, a new world currency that has not yet been issued will replace the dollar as the key currency in the world and that currency would be issued and controlled by the IMF.  Obama wants the rest of the world to catch up, so he wont confront the IMF.  If this happens, gold could go to record levels, and US markets would see a marked reduction, especially banks.  Much of my portfolio consists of gold and silver mines, which I will sell probably next year and buy stocks that have been vastly reduced.

    Montana is losing money and it has been a issue since last fall. Enrollment is down at Montana where Montana State has an increasing enrollment. Montana is paying someone a $70,000 bonus to increase enrollment. There is talk about adding engineering at Montana, but engineering under the University of Montana is at Montana Tech.

    This is interesting.

    Now he leads ASU into major college hockey, with a 5,000-seat arena being readied for construction on the Tempe campus. Sun Belt naysayers (and UA fans) can moan all they want: ASU is poised to shift the power base in NCAA college hockey all the way to Tempe.

    I can't find any more on this planed arena, but there is suppose to be renderings of this new arena.

    Same thoughts. Probably some presidents (tiebreaker) was probably add both or none.

    I think they wanted Arizona State and by adding Mankato the NCHC might as well add all the old WCHA teams they left behind. Adding Arizona State gives the NCHC power against the B1G. If it was me, I would have added Arizona State and told Mankato no. I still could see the WCHA trying to work out a deal with the NCHC involving the Alaska schools like there was with the WCHA and CCHA (that's if the both get saved). The WCHA could have made the whole Alaska thing easier on the other teams by sending two teams up there to play UAA one night then switch and play Alaska the next night. Then the Alaska teams would play some teams 3 time a year and other teams would only have to go up to Alaska once and not play them at home (Basically the WCHA could benefit by using travel partners) .
