    Suppose there are no teams looking to join D1, especially in the PAC area correct? Probably tough with the economy & cost for hockey teams.

    Unless a group of the Independents form a conference, not likely. The CCHA left the Alaskas behind, the NCHC isn’t interested and the Big Ten, there’s no chance.

    Any idea if Alaska (Fairbanks to me) will join a conference anytime soon?

    Yes, hockey follows basketball in the autobid goes to the tournament winner. If Colgate hadn't won, Alaska would have been in.

    Week 23

    Four teams officially finished their seasons this weekend and Alaska is still hoping for an at large bid to the tournament. LIU traveled to Tempe and had a 3-2 lead heading into the third before ASU scored 4 unanswered to take Friday’s game 6-3. The following night each team had at least 35 shots on goal yet ended regulation tied at 1. Josh Doan scored the game winner in overtime for the Sun Devils in his apparent last collegiate goal. In Anchorage, the Seawolves welcomed the Lions to town and proceeded to compete in a game that ended with 7 goals on each side and UAA winning the shootout. Saturday was another back and forth affair, with 5 of 7 goals coming in the second period. Tied at three, the teams would head to extra time for the second straight night, this time with the Seawolves ending the season with a 4-3 overtime victory.

    It’s been an exciting season for sure! Hoping for some favorable results this weekend. The last time I saw the Nooks lose in person was in October against Tech and that includes three road games.

    Lindenwood and Arizona State both traveled to Alaska to play the Nanooks and Seawolves respectively. The Sun Devils took game one in Anchorage by a score of 5-0 and looked to get the four game season sweep on Saturday. The Seawolves though wouldn’t lay down that easy. UAA took a first period lead and either led or were tied for the rest of the game en route to a 4-3 victory. Up in Fairbanks the Lions led 1-0 after the first period on Friday. The next five periods on the weekend the Nanooks outscored Lindenwood 12-0. The Nanooks sit idle and wait for the NCAA tournament selection show while Lindenwood heads south to Anchorage and LIU travels to Arizona State for the final weekend of the season for those four teams.
