    As far as Maine and UVM... they traveled to every other teams rink every year anyway in the old schedule (with the alternating 2 home / 1 away format)... so I don't think their cost would be much more than previous years... unless they do a lot more away OOC games.
    I think it's more that it's hard to justify the expense of traveling all the way to/from Indiana to just play one game.

      Hopefully.

        Well since we had the leverage ND should be paying for the trips... Amirite? Amirite? Amirite?

          Stop talking logic. We're talking about Joey B. I'm surprised the rest of the schools aren't paying ND's travel expenses.

            The B10 would if they could get them...maybe 5 years down the line.

              no clue, no, city? eh, but it's one of the most depressing areas i've ever been to

                It sure is. My group was shocked to see how ghetto that town was.

                The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

                  2. UNH
                  3. Lowell
                  4. BU
                  5. Notre Dame
                  6. UVM
                  7. Providence
                  8. Merrimack
                  9. Maine
                  10. UMA
                  11. Northeastern

                  Admittedly, my picks aren't based solely on logic. I think (well...hope) UVM will finish around 6th, so I had to put us in front of a team or two that may actually be better. I do believe UVM will be better than a lot of people think. We're gonna be a young team, but we've got some help on the way in critical areas, most notably offense and goaltending. Santaguida is someone who can hopefully alternate with Brody Hoffman, who was decent in goal last year, but clearly could have used some rest. I noticed a couple of posters have us picked to finish dead last. Really??? I guarantee that won't happen, and would be willing to bet my left testicle on it.

                  Looking forward to ND's introduction to HE with two games at The Gut in early November. At the time they come in, we'll have 2 tough road games against North Dakota under our belt, a redemptive win against Penn State in Philly, The Gut will be alive and rockin, and hopefully we can send them back to the midwest questioning their decision to join HE.

                    If they don't take four points on the road, kick them right back out of the league.

                      I'll bet the mortgage..........err, the whole house (and it's not under water) that UVM will not finish ahead of PC. You gotta be kiddin me but I like your positive outlook

                        NU is going to be so good.. we'll need two #1s nxt to our name baby..

                        GO NU HOCKEY
                        Always bullish on the future.
                        We don't always win Hockey East or the Beanpot (#trilogy).. but when we do.. we are the Champions

                            Yeah, no doubt. Had to give NU double 1's. Doesn't get any better than that.....

                              I don't expect Gillies not to re-enroll... That alone (enrollment) gives them at least top 4.
