2017-18 Schedules Thread

Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

Link to this year's spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tOhCK4qXRHp0CRY8P3AswlwtPHWGdpk08c3pHev5-Fw/

Obviously with hardly any information in the date area, no one to report as "effectively complete"*.

* Effectively complete meaning the school has released the schedule, or enough alternate information has been reported to determine the schedule is complete, minus exhibition games. Discretion will be used to determine whether WCHA teams will be using their entire allotment.
 
Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

Here's what I have for Colgate so far:

-Arizona State (home x2)
-Merrimack (home x2)
-Army (away x1)
-UConn (away x1)

The other 6 OOC games are not tangibly defined yet, but 2 of those games will be at a holiday tournament (not the Dartmouth one), and the other 4 games will be exclusively against Atlantic Hockey and Hockey East teams (not Maine, BU, or Providence).

Somewhere Clarkson owes Arizona State a visit, as does Bemidji.

In Bemidji's case, it was a 2 for 1 with Arizona State coming to Bemidji twice and Bemidji going there once. I know last year they had to nix the game with ASU in Bemidji, but I am not sure if they nixed the whole contract or if it was just on hiatus for a year or two.

Providence opens next season at Miami (OH).

In addition, I believe they will return the Denver trip this upcoming season.
 
Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

Here is what I had posted in the UW thread, confirming the St Lawrence and Clarkson rotation
KaMiGo said:
For those who want to start looking ahead to the future (per a Todd Milewski article from earlier this year - LINK

snips from the article
- The Badgers and the Wildcats are scheduled to play in Ashwaubenon again next season, tentatively Oct. 20-21, 2017, according to a contract between the schools.
- The rest of the 2017-18 non-conference slate, per signed contracts and earlier announcements, is scheduled to include two-game home series against North Dakota, St. Lawrence and Mercyhurst and a road trip to Michigan Tech.

- A four-year contract with St. Lawrence and Clarkson has the Badgers playing once at each school this season and in 2018-19. St. Lawrence plays a two-game series at the Kohl Center in 2017-18 and Clarkson visits in 2019-20.
- After UW plays at Michigan Tech next season, the Huskies come to Madison in 2018-19.
- The Badgers’ return series for two home games against Omaha this season comes in 2019-20.

So:
UW Home
North Dakota
St Lawrence
Mercyhurst

UW Away
NMU (in Green Bay)
Michigan Tech
 
Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

Northeastern is hosting Quinnipiac for 2 as noted above. Besides that I know we open the season @ RIT (RIT's homecoming), have our annual October home-and-home with Bentley, and of course the Beanpot. A couple of games still missing (I have some idea of what they are but not with tons of confidence).

If you aren't aware, the 11 team Hockey East schedule consists of 24 league games, with 6 teams being played twice and 4 teams being played 3 times (The four bonus games are 2 home, 2 away)

Shillelagh, perhaps? Obviously you won Mariucci the same year we were there, and did Ledyard last year. I heard the Estero tournament might not be happening in favor of some home games for Cornell.

Thank you for that information; I was under the presumption it was going to be like just before UCONN joined.

The Shillelagh won't be around next season.

RPI supposedly has 2 @OSU, 2 home vs. Maine (not sure if that's still happening), @RIT/NIA, and Notre Dame (though I don't know if that's going to still happen). On top of this, the Friendship Four.

As for the spreadsheet, I'll get it going when I'm good and ready. :D But in all seriousness, is Arizona State going into a league?

The 2 vs Maine isn't going to happen, this year at least. 10 OOC games, all full (2 Princeton, 2 QC, 2 UMD, 2 Miami, UNH, FF). Maine might play RPI at the FF in Belfast.

Larry's trolling me. The Princeton games are gone from the schedule. Maine will play a pair at RPI on October 13-14. That means no homecoming this season. :( The UNH game in Portland is also gone (Yay!) and replaced by a game at Brown.

Dates that we know at this time:
Oct 6-7 UConn (league games)
Oct 13-14 @RPI
Oct 20-21 Miami
Oct 27-28 UMD
Nov 24 Providence (league game, Friendship Four)
Nov 25 Clarkson/RPI (Friendship Four)
Dec 8-9 @Quinnipiac
Dec 30 @Brown

League dates are still unknown, but Maine will play BU and UNH at home twice/road once and BC and UMass road twice/home once this season (reversed next season).

Re: 2017-18 Schedules Thread

Another update from Arizona State land. In an interview posted online from www.icetimehockeysw.com, head coach Powers announced that UMass Amherst, UMass Lowell, Penn State, Princeton, Quinnipiac (mentioned earlier in a different post) and BU will be coming to AZ. No mention of what games will be at Gila and what games will be at Oceanside. It was not announced how many games will be in each series. Also announced ASU will play in a tourney at Las Vegas' new T-mobile arena.

Go Devils!

Hockey East has an opening. :D They'd make as much sense as Notre Dame did.

But seriously, wouldn't ultimately the Big 10 make the most sense for Arizona?

We've played so many Hockey East games it feels like we are an affiliate member! But if the NCHC door is closed and no reason to think they have reopened it since last year, it would be down to WCHA and Big Ten. Have continually heard the WCHA has extended a lot of interest to ASU. Big Ten wasn't looking to add us, but maybe having played them in a few games last year those talks have opened back up. Sounds like there would be conversations going on during the Frozen Four, which makes sense.

Wherever ASU goes, it's going to end up being a lot of travel. The Big Roll-a-D20 I see liking the footprint they have now. WCHA already has two trips to Alaska potentially, and Alabama can be construed as long; do they really want to add another long one? The only way I see that happening is if either UAA folds (I haven't heard more on that "merger" between UAA and UA_) or one of the Alaska teams goes to another league (somehow I doubt the BHHC will take them).

As a Gopher fan, I like this idea, but I am thoroughly confused as to which games are when again. Could you fellows spell in out in terms of:
These games are being played in 17-18
These games in 18-19
These games in 19-20
These games in 20-21?

Thanks. It sounds like 2 seasons where MN/WI go to the North Country and play a weekend, with sites swapping, so MN@CCT, WI@SLU...MN@SLU, WI@CCT. And, one season where SLU@MN for 2 and CCT @WI for 2, and one season where CCT@MN for 2, and SLU@WI for 2, but I can't get it straight which years are which.

Edit: I think I am getting it:

16-17: MN and WI visit the North Country
17-18: CCT @ MN and SLU @ WI
18-19: MN and WI again visit the North Country
19-20: SLU @ MN and CCT @ WI
Is that right?

Yep!

Sounds like we will know more after the meetings in Naples. I'm guessing Big Ten because of the two television networks the conference have and the desire for the Pac 12 Network to show more hockey games. They showed four games last season on the network. Additionally, it would be good for all of the Bog Ten alumni bases here in Phoenix. This creates the gathering opportunity for them each year as their alma mater comes to town. ASU has a large reach over the country and many of our games had a good turnout from the alumni associations in those parts of the country. I was at Denver and bet we had 300 alums from the Denver area at the games. This for a brand new product that our folks are still learning about. The Big Ten schools would be a win-win for both them and ASU on so many fronts (scheduling in other sports being a consideration). Just my opinion and not based on any news reporting other than the coaches comments yesterday that they want it to be a place that has a long term future. That certainly sounds like the Big Ten when you look at the landscape. Could still be the WCHA as I know they have expressed a lot of interest, but we will hopefully know soon.
