Re: Big Ten > NCHC
Cliff Notes version:
Current B1G teams were great 10-20 years ago.
B1G teams have been decimated recently by early departures.
No explanation for why NCHC, with more early departures, seems to be having success.
Look, if there is one thing that pretty much all knowledgeable college hockey fans can agree on it's that since it's formation five years ago, and notwithstanding overwhelming advantages in terms of size, money, facilities, recruiting, television exposure, etc..., B1G hockey teams have grossly underperformed on a national level. The vast majority of those fans don't expect that to continue indefinitely, but to argue otherwise at this point in time suggests ignorance.
