      I say leave it Thursday-Saturday the way it is. It's been extremely successful that way already and the afternoon game on Thursday will probably be just as well attended as the Friday day, and 3rd place game have been anyway.

      I don't see why the schedule has to change just because of the CCHA. Apples and Oranges.

        I say keep the championship on saturday. Who wants to stick around for a game on Sunday if your team doens't make it to the championship?

        The thursday game lately has been pretty well attended. Having 2 games thursday will probably bring attendance up on that day. Just more of a chance that the teams with fans that travel well will be in them.

        Makes the the regular season more important as only 2 teams will get byes.

        Overall I think it's a great idea.

          You can ask people to play hooky from work for one day, but asking them to do it two days in a row is pushing it.

            Indeed.

            However, raise your hand if you have been to a Final Five and NEEDED that Sunday to recover from the weekend.

            Tickets will cost more. I would look for that championship game's price to shoot up.

                    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                          I pretty much take the whole week off of work, anyway, as it coincides with the school district's spring break. It is spring break time in St. Paul and a lot of the east metro, IIRC. I know that doesn't affect everyone, and taking time off of work means different things for everyone.

                          While I believe a Friday, Saturday and Sunday schedule might not be a total bust, gatewise, I agree with RWD in that I don't usally like to move 10 ft. from the couch on the Sunday after the F5. Without that day of rest, I'd be missing work the next Monday, too. Not that I'd say I was "missing" it, though, Bob

                            Yeah, I usually take that Thu-Fri off, but now with two games on Thu, I'll prob take Wed off now.
