2014-15 schedules

[UML]

An e-mail to UMass-Lowell season ticket holders indicated that Michigan and Michigan State would be coming to Lowell.

I think the Michigan fanboys in the area could give the ND phonies a run for their money.

Re: 2014-15 schedules

I like this. Nothing like back-to-backs to let the rivalry/hatred grow!

Except we'll have a weekend to rest up before we come to your barn and smack you around.

[Badgers1]

UAA and Uaf opponents for the Kendall and Brice are Wisconsin, Maine, Penn State, and Air Force

Any idea which one Wisconsin will be in and which weekend that is?

Thanks

For DU I know BC is coming to Denver for homecoming which I believe is sometime in October. First DU has to get past them this Saturday. I also read Monty is trying to get some games with Maine. Don't know if that will be this coming season.

Re: 2014-15 schedules

For Minnesota, we have the ice breaker in Notre Dame, home-and-home with both SCSU and tUMD, Road trip to BC and Northeastern. 1 game each. the North Star Cup with Minnesota State Mankato, UMD, BSU. St Cloud State is sitting out this year.

Re: 2014-15 schedules

All I know for UMD is their nonconference schedule; that they are playing in the Icebreaker at Notre Dame against RPI and could play UMTC or ND. They play at Michigan Tech in December, have home and homes with UMTC and Minnesota State and are in the North Star College Cup and probably playing Bemidji State. The NCHC schedule for next year has not been finished.

I believe UMD should have 1 more NC series. I pretty sure the Ice Breaker does not count towards the 34 game limit set by the NCAA. I would think it would be a home series (just guessing) as they only have 2 of the other 10 NC games at Amsoil.

Then that would make sense that the NMU radio guy DavyD said that Northern Michigan is coming to Duluth next season part of a one for one deal. As for the Icebreaker not counting...I do not know about that. Can someone confirm this?

I just looked at the Gopher schedule for this year (2013-14); they hosted this years Ice Breaker and they played 36 non-playoff games (37 with exhibition against the Canadian School). They didn't make a trip to Alaska this year so the Ice Breaker must be exempt from the 34 game limit.

Re: 2014-15 schedules

How is Atlantic Hockey going to work? Is it going to be 28 games? 26? Something else? Obviously UCONN is in HEA now.

What I heard is 28 conference games. 3 games vs 8 opponents and 2 games vs 2 opponents. I think it is done by lottery.
I would have preferred 4teams x 4games and 6 teams x 2 games, but I am sure the west would have nixed that.

Anybody know if UVM has any big teams scheduled to come in next year for OOC?

... the Ice Breaker must be exempt from the 34 game limit

As others have noted, the Ice Breaker is indeed an exempt tournament, but IIRC any given school can only avail themselves of this exemption once every four years. If that's still the case, then I don't understand how UMTC could be a participant again NEXT season (as has been suggested here by other posters) without then reducing its NC slate by 2 fewer games to compensate and meet the 34-game limit. Or am I totally out to lunch?
