        The University of Illinois is a prime candidate for the BTHC. Need cash though...lots of it.

        Nebraska is on the list too.

          So are we going to see some Sunday/Monday Series? Another question is are they going to wait until after Football season to play all the conference games?

            I have been told non conference games will be the traditional Friday, Saturday setup but conference games likely will be different. IMO, it will take a few years to get all the kinks worked about before the Big Ten gets their act together. I fully expect many fans complaining, especially Minnesota fans. It will be interesting.
            Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order.
            dggoddard - Minnesota is THE ELITE Program in all of college hockey.

              I will be complaining about the weeknight games. I've heard we will see more of them. I already hate the 1 or 2 Tuesday night games Michigan has on its schedule.

                All because of television. Which, probably will never be up to FSN snuff. No pregrame etc. I am not looking forward to it.

                  Weekday games are a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE idea..... This should be lovely.

                    From the Nebraska article...

                    "You don't need 14,000 fans a night to be successful in D1 hockey. Hell, I think Michigan's place hold like 6000. Which is too many of those *******s in one place at a time if you ask me, but I digress."

                      It's been a while since I've checked in here... we're not going to have shootouts, right? We're just going to have ties after 65 minutes of hockey and treat the fans like adults, right? I'm not getting my hopes up.
                      If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

                      BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!


                      At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                          I would like to see 4x4 OT's with 10mins instead of 5 for the regular season.

                            As a UW fan, I vote for no overtime. Call the game a tie for RPI/PWR purposes and go directly to the shootout to determine the winner for conference purposes.

                            Or a coin flip: Flip 2 coins, two tails and UW loses otherwise it's a tie. I'd be happy with that.

                              Please, no shootout for any purposes.
