Looked for a BTHC News thread, but didn't see one. So I apologize if I missed it.

“@INCH: CCHA officials supervisor Steve Piotrowski will take same role with Big Ten in 2013-14. Good move.”

Would it be better for the Big Ten Network to have shootouts, and scheduling be more stable, or to have overtime, and have more game time. I will have to ask Barry Alverez what he wants to find out.
 
Re: Big Ten Hockey Conference

Barry would probably tell you the same thing any pragmatic person in charge of a hockey league will tell you:

Shootouts eliminate ties.
Morons don't have enough brainpower to process the fact that ties are a perfectly logical outcome to a game where neither team wins.
The human population consists of about 90% morons.

Ergo, shootouts are probably inevitable. But it shouldn't stop us from whining about it.
 
Re: Big Ten Hockey Conference

I expect only Minnesota will be against shootouts.

And since Minnesota isn't any good at any of the sports that the B1G cares about (makes them money), they will be laughed at, patted on the head, told to sit in the corner and ignored.

BTW, I hate shootouts. Anytime, anywhere.
 
Re: Big Ten Hockey Conference

I am ambivalent about shootouts. If the Big Ten keeps them, I am fine. If they don't, I have no problem with that. I would actually like to see the colleges adopt the NHL overtime rules (regular season rules) where they go 4-on-4 in OT. More ice for everyone.
 
Re: Big Ten Hockey Conference

Wisconsin won a share of the 1942 Football National Championship (#1 according to the Helms Athletic Foundation). Of course, Wisconsin realizes that this is not the same as a real national championship and does not count it.

winner!

and obviously correct, I don't know a single UW fan who counts 1942 as an NCAA championship, in fact I don't think there's even a banner for it up at Camp Randall

Do we need to start another thread for this? I thought we were trying to keep the rest of them cleaned up.
