Re: Michigan State Off-season
Would this have affected play in any way? No.
Would this have drawn anyone to the building? No.
Would it have created a small amount of banter on broadcasts? Yes.
Would it have made MSU look arrogant in changing a basic feature of a playing surface? Yes.
The AD was focused on points 1 & 3. The important ones are 2 & 4. This was a good move by the NCAA to avoid the slippery slope that would have undoubtedly resulted from allowing it to happen. Let's not see college hockey descend into that kind of gimmickry.
