Wish Minot State could make the jump or U-Mary or both for that matter.  WHL isn't very far north.  

Jamestown could be listed along with those schools, no?

ya - problem is none of the schools have the facility at the moment and probably no where near having start-up costs.  Maysa is decent but not sure it has enough seating.  Heard a rumor a year or 2 ago that Mary wanted to add women's hockey and build a place on campus but of course just a rumor.

CHN podcast talked to the UNLV head coach.

UNLV D-I Dreams Still a Ways Away : College Hockey News

  • They have been trying to get the AD to do a NHL feasibility study for 3 months, last meeting was 6 weeks ago. AD said positive things but he's working on football and NIL at the moment (at the time).
  • They have put together an advisory board to bring in more money and awareness.
  • The advisory board has "high end" people and companies.
  • President of the Golden Knights talked to the team 6 months ago about a new rink they are building (south of the strip) and having a wing for the UNLV hockey team. The advisory board wasn't for it because of $4 million and no revenue sharing. Mentioned a couple options but didn't say what they are.
  • TSU's first NCAA game will be in Vegas against UNLV.
  • CHL players playing ACHA will be voted on in March and is going to be approved.

This will be interesting. In theory makes moving to NCAA easier with CHL scholarships. Those may dry up though.

He was saying they are looking more at the 20 year olds that NCAA schools might not be looking at.

Two schools that came up about adding hockey are Gonzaga and Creighton. Both don't have football programs and in places that already have high end hockey.

Was listening to the Georgia head coach, he said they were going to try and play St. Thomas and St. Cloud next year on their trip to Minnesota. He didn't say if it was NCAA or the ACHA teams.
