    Re: Sun Devil Hockey

    That article about the RFP says ASU is requesting it be complete for the 2022-23 season.

      Impressive what your program is doing.

      When you guys get scheduled in Madison, please bring your cheerleaders.

        I'm looking forward to the series with Omaha. I think they are better than their record suggests. Any losses to them could result in a significant pairwise hit for the Devil's (?)

            ASU in Irvine Ca. Be interesting to see the attendance/ reception to College hockey in Orange County.

                  BTW. I was out in AZ the weekend of the Denver series and got to attend the Friday night game at Oceanside. We had a blast. It was a great game and the rink is one of a kind. Very glad I was able to make it out there. Good luck the rest of the way!

                        It is small, pucks can get caught in the girder rafters. I've been to bigger high school "arenas" in northern Minnesota. But it is ours for now. There are bigger rinks in Phx., but not close to campus & they are trying to keep it close for students.

                          Small and quaint is nice, but it is not a Division 1 level facility. I'd have loved to come down to Tempe and watch a couple of games, but from what I can tell there is exactly one ticket available. Its on Ticketmaster and it's in Section C and cost $9,990.00.

                          As a season ticket holder for the UAA Seawolves in their "new" sub-standard venue, I can vouch for how lame it is that you can not buy a ticket for an event because it only holds 750 people and only a few tickets are available for purchase ....and those are only available at the door, after the 1st period (unless you are a student).

                            A plus to having ASU in a conference would be a trip to Arizona in the winter. But if parents and fans can't get a ticket to the games, that negates a lot of that selling point. We need to at least see some tangible signs of a rink before ASU is going to be taken seriously.

                              That was exactly where I was going with that diatribe

                              I'd love for ASU to be in the new new WCHA, so hopefully they will get the rink built in the next few years!

                                You didn't include taxes and handling fees, bringing the ticket total to over $11,000. Anyway, you are right, it is not Div. 1. Hopefully groundbreaking is close to happening and we'll have the 5000+/- seating arena up and running on campus, next to the football stadium. RFP has been issued, I assume the BOR are reviewing the summary now.
