CCHA v2.9.1 - BGSU BSU FSU LSSU MSU MTU NMU UST & Special Guests - The Augie Vikings

[thebrain]

St. Thomas is now looking to build an on-campus arena.

”I am excited to share we are now focusing efforts to bring hockey to campus. We've said from the start we would examine every option to find a solution to best suit the university's needs. After exploring multiple off-campus sites, we can confidently say a new on-campus home for hockey is the best path forward. This arena will operate as a multipurpose facility that serves as an asset for our entire campus by offering student life and community engagement opportunities, in addition to serving as a home for our men's and women's hockey programs.

“South campus is the likely destination for such a facility, and earlier this month we issued a formal request for proposal (RFP) to invite prospective design-build partners to submit for the opportunity to bring this to life. We will receive these proposals soon and expect to select our partner by semester's end to keep the process moving. More information will be shared as available.”

CCHA is 5-6 and 1 so far in non conf games, am I right? and three of those losses are by one team.

if you cannot beat Miami then well how good can you be.

This morning I went to the FSU site to see how their game vs Miami went and when I clicked the video link it took me to the NCHC site. That was a shock.!

Ferris is going to be good this year. Watch out for them.

And -20 with 50 mph winds in houghton is a dry cold

Working outside at -10F and no wind is far more tolerable than 20F with 10mph wind.

Games don't start for over a month. Average daytime highs drop from about 94 Oct 1st to about 82 by Oct 31st, and the average daytime high is 70 by the end of November. So...

I'll also add that my wife and I spent a week in Phoenix around the 4th of July. It was about 105 every day. I'll take Phoenix 105 over the Midwest 90 + humidity ANY day.

During summer construction work, would start at 5 AM, it'd be 100 F at 10 AM, get done by 1:30, go to Thomas Mall - only public ice rink in town back then, get a pitcher of beer, lay out on the ice making "ice angels" to cool off.......

Moving to Kitchener is like moving to Mankato. It's not terrible, but still. Or maybe like Utica NY. Sorry Utica.

Have you ever been to Kitchener?? You're not even close in your comparison.

So anyone know why Dominic is no longer there?

Although the OHL is in direct competition with the NCAA for recruits, most would regard the OHL, or Canadian Juniors in general, the more traditional path to the NHL over the NCAA (if an NHL level job is the ultimate career goal). Whether that perception is real, the OHL is one of the "professional" paths to the NHL whereas the NCAA is considered the "amateur" path. However looking at recent NHL drafts, the NCAA is closing the gap to Canadian Juniors in terms of who can land / develop top NHL prospects. Also the gig with the Kitchener Rangers includes "hockey operations" where as the job with the CCHA is more inline with an SID/PR/HR position.
