Merrimack will be at Colgate Oct 23-24 and Colgate will return the trip in 2021-22.

Merrimack will be at Dartmouth Dec 10th and Dartmouth will return the trip in 2021-22.

This gives us 9/10 of Merrimacks OOC. I'm sure the remaining game will be revealed soon. (They are at brown for a game but no date revealed yet)

Any ideas who is still open Oct. 3/4? NMU has a "pending" away non-conference series.

NMU will open the season at Wisconsin on Oct 3/4.

Merrimack @ Brown on New Years Day - return trip scheduled for '21-22. This gives us all but 1 of Merrimacks non-conference schedule.

Spreadsheet has been updated to date!

Merrimack's last OOC opponent is Yale on 1/5. We now have all of their non-conference opponents confirmed and game dates.

A wrinkle into scheduling for next year:

You will have to change potential schedules. Series that require flights could be swapped with series with teams within bussing distance.

If all airplane travel away games are cancelled by other colleges then ASU will go from having 14 home games and 20 road games on the schedule, which sucked to begin with, to no home games????? Sounds real fair now.......

And so it begins... A Holy Cross at Arizona State 2 game series doesn't impact ASU but leaves HC with 2 games to find. If SCS cancels their trip to Boston, BC (1) and Northeastern (1) can easily play HC to make those games up for all 3 teams. SCS can easily find a WCHA team to play against as they have the Alaska exemptions.

We'll see what else happens over the next couple weeks....

Sure it impacts ASU. 2 less home games.

Not sure St Cloud can "easily" find a WCHA team to play against. There are only 2 WCHA schools that are close to St. Cloud, and those 2 are already on the schedule for next year. Maybe an "easy" trip to Alabama, Ohio, or the UP, I guess.

They can do a return trip to ASU since we are going to SC this year, make it a home & home if it can fit their schedule

Re: The 2020-21 Schedules Thread

A home and home between MN and AZ? lol

There won't be any college hockey in 2020 so this will all be moot.

They know and understand being an independent team will require more road games. ASU Coach seems okay with it considering they still have the 34 game schedule.

It is funny for ASU to leave a resort area for,ice, snow, -0F but they do it. Not so funny for Minnesota teams to leave that for AZ

Not following your reasoning here.

Yet...would assume there will be some openings.

Home and home means one weekend with a game at each place. This will not happen in MN and AZ.

Good point, I was using it in a different context.

 

[Sol Diablo]

St Cloud & UMD could both fit into NMU’s schedule, which is off Oct 9-10 and is scheduled to have BU on Oct 16-17. The trip from UMD to NMU is closer to home than everyone but St Cloud in the NCHC.

St Cloud already scheduled with ASU on Oct. 10-11
