Fair enough. I'm sorry that your school was put into a bad situation for which my school is largely to blame. However, and again I understand you don't care, it's very difficult to have sympathy for you in particular when you are cheering players getting injured and fires at arenas. Michigan Tech has one of, if not the best fan base in college hockey, and you are really doing a disservice not only to yourself, but to the school that you obviously love so much. I understand the need to vent, and if you want to call UND all the names in the book, I get that. However, IMO, calling for players' heads goes beyond what is acceptable in a college hockey board.

You obviously don't comprehend that I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK OF ME. Even if you waste the time to write an entire paragraph about why I should.

And maybe if Tech hadn't sucked for 30 years, they'd be invited to join a hockey conference with the true D1 schools, like UMD was. Nobody's fault but their own... not the Bi6, not the BHHC. But go ahead and wish injury on players, and drink another beer.

Yet another troll.
Fans of these schools are allowed to be ****ed, and you don't need to be a ***** about it.

I really don't agree. I think Tech could have been competitive recently, like UMD, and still be left out. Teams wanted to avoid the trip to Houghton, which is just a ***** to get to for most teams. If given the opportunity to not travel to Houghton regularly, most teams would take it. Being competitive could have gotten tech into the conversion but I still think they're out in the cold.

There'll be much jocularity should the current ButtHurt 6 actually not become the ButtHurt 8. Let them have their 6 team conference and pretend they are just like the B1G boys.

It would be wonderful to see ND not go and hang that group out to dry.

Look, most people will tell you that on these boards I can be a ******. It is mostly a schtick but I accept I am an *** a lot of the time. I was very vocal that the WCHA would be fine without the Gophers and BADgers, I still think it would be a top conference especially in the early years of the BTHC where who knows what can happen. I didnt think they would be a powerhouse always, but they definitely would have been better than a mid-major conference and better than this craptastic super league which is not even close to super.

I mean this wholeheartedly, there is no sarcasm, no jokes, no irony, no schtick...this whole thing really sucks! I have no love lost for SCSU but I can tell you that right now I would pay money to watch them in their arena if it will help. Same holds true for MSUM, BSU and all the rest of the "leftovers" that are being bent over. I dont like the BTHC, I knew it was coming and that I and my team was powerless to stop it so I accepted it. I also figured UND and Denver would do what is in everyone's (including their own) best interest and keep the WCHA around which in 5 years most likely would benefit from the loss of the Big Ten schools. They didn't and now they are all offended because in truth their choice (and that is what it is a choice...Wisconsin and Minne had no choice which doesnt excuse them but differentiates the two) makes them the biggest ******'s on the block.

I dont believe in conference loyalty, I hate every team in the WCHA and the Big Ten...but I will support the old WCHA schools left in the cold by a bunch of small dicked schools who think they are more important than they are. I want to put how I truly feel about the BHHC but I would get banned in about 5 minutes.

I am sure the SCSU fans and the rest could care less what I think (and the BHHC fans will just pretend like their opinion means something even though it wont to me) but I stand with you guys. Sounds like SJHovey does too as do a few others. You guys deserve way better than to be screwed this way.

If this league happens the only way SCSU, Mankato and BSU make it is if Minnesota kids choose to play for minnesota schools and not for UND, CC, UNO and DU. If that happens the rich talent pool here could make the new conference much better than people think. The sad reality is I doubt that would ever happen.:(

So what happens if ND goes to hockey east? Western Michigan is not one of the for sure teams, so are they out if ND goes east? would Miami bail on the new conference if they are asked to go to hockey east with ND? If ND does come why not just join the WCHA? If mcLeod is the problem why not just get rif of him. The AD's have that right correct?
