MafiaMan Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Might be dumb question but does the new wcha still fight for the mcnaughton cup? The custodian of the MacNaughton Cup is Michigan Tech. The cup will stay with the WCHA while the Broadmoor Trophy will come with Colorado College to the NCHC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 The custodian of the MacNaughton Cup is Michigan Tech. The cup will stay with the WCHA while the Broadmoor Trophy will come with Colorado College to the NCHC. It was announced that the Broadmoor is staying with the WCHA.

watchmaker49 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 It was announced that the Broadmoor is staying with the WCHA. This does make sense though. Why would you want the hardware from a different league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda stinks that there won't be every road trip every year...but you'll have them more frequently than the current WCHA and 10 team WCHA.

yzerman19 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 ? He's saying Bowling Green won the CCHA title for 3 years while Michigan Tech was a member of the CCHA. The MacNaughton follows Tech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WCHA commissioned the Broadmoor Trophy AFTER Tech went to the CCHA. When Tech returned, the Broadmoor was given to the conference playoff champion.

siouxforeverbaby Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Son, you've lost me... The WCHA came up with the Broadmoor Trophy AFTER Tech went to the CCHA. When Tech returned, the Broadmoor was given to the conference playoff champion. I think they are talking about the MacNaughton. I am not sure where watchmaker49 is confused. But I think it is because Bowling Green is on the MacNaughton three times because they won it when Tech took it with them to the CCHA. But I am a little confused about all of the confusion.

The only thing confusing to me is why Colorado College is so willing to part with the Broadmoor Trophy...considering its the old Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs. It would kinda be like a Westward Ho Trophy going to Hockey East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I read somewhere that it was because the NCHC wanted to start afresh and not having anything that connected them with the WCHA....but we are bringing Adam with so that may be a moot point.

Yea, nothing says 'moving forward' like trashing your past. Keep the Broadmoor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Agreed. I suppose that the new trophy is owned by the WCHA, but the old trophy is CC's. I wonder if its a naming rights thing. CC owns the trophy, the WCHA owns the right to "Broadmoor trophy". I won't pretend to know any type of legality on an issue like this.
