25-26 Schedules

i mean the nhl was founded to get rid of eddie livingstone who everyone hated back in the NHA. It wouldn't be the 1st time a hockey league/conference was founded around the principle of hey this guy can go fuck himself and get him outta here. If both teams only had 8 games scheduled and half a roster yeah thats admin failure. But when one team has a full schedule and roster and the other doesn't it really seems like something smells with the mens team in particular. I geuss well find out when/if they find a resolution and finally join a conference.
Yeah that's a fair point. Still doesn't help the Admin's story when they jumped into the NEHC as it was collapsing and are being vague about the team's status for this year. Wish USCHO or some other sites and journalists would pick the story up and work their sources. Wondering what the LEC angle is if anyone opens up about it.

Remember these schools make decisions 18 months to 2 years in advance of when they start playing in new league.

The NEHC wasn’t collapsing at that time and I’m pretty sure LEC hadn’t even been announced yet.

Salve gets into Newmac so needs to find home for hockey since Newmac didn’t have it.

LEC forms and takes primary members. The death sentence was Babson and Norwich leaving. The league had a plan and could have/would have survived if Babson/Norwich decided to stay.

Babson
Norwich
Albertus Magnus
Hobart
Skidmore
Elmira
Salve Regina
Manhattanville

Was plan. They might have even had 1 or 2 more can’t remember.
 
Western New England.

They could get away with only 3 hotel nights. They only have 4 OOC and two could end up being vs North Adams State., I thought others in the CNE had 5, (just checked, UNE has 7, so Western could play Salve a couple of games if they felt like it. I'll wait for more knowledgeable people to chime in.
 
Seeing the Nichols schedule has me wondering about the invites for the Boston Landing Invitational. Surprised Salem or another school closer to Boston isn't a part of it. That and a having a known hockey school like Middlebury (even if they've been having a rough few years) would be a great addition every year. Anyone have any knowledge about it?
 
not sure if anyone has posted about this earlier but with fisher, hiram, roger williams, and west conn joining i count a total of 91 d3 mens teams which means with the 1:6 ratio the tournament is now 15 teams and another at large bid just popped up. Unless there's some weird rules i dont know about?

The ratio is 1:6.5.
