It is what it is. Ivy's have the same problem with the Icebreaker in D1.
I would put Utica in the Aud venue just to ensure a good gate.

Fredonia would get crushed, not an entertaining game if you ask me

It was more the theme...Middlebury and Superior aren't as strong as they used to be either...

Re: The Ultimate Tournament
When I first started supporting SNC hockey, Superior was a force in the 'old' NCHA.
Had some real battles with them at the De Pere Ice Arena, before SNC moved into the CCC.
Big change in recent years @ Superior that I have noticed, is that they no longer recruit as aggressively in western Canada as they used to..

Re: The Ultimate Tournament
I had to check: this season = three Canadians, five season ago = ten and 10 seasons ago = 22 on Superior's rosters..

No, they get an into the NCAAs, that's enough for them
So every 4 years we look at a PWR type ranking, take the top-8 from each region to determine the 16 teams that play over the next 4 years. Year one is 1e v 2w and 1w v 2e, year two are the 3s and 4s, etc. After the 4-year cycle, we run the numbers again, and pick the next 16.
A neutral site is not realistic, so let's have the top seeds from each band flip a coin, and host it on campus. Or, have the top overall teams flip a coin, then alternate yearly between east and west, with the top seed in each band hosting....so if 1e hosts in year one, 3w would host in year two, 5e in year three, 7w in year four.
Think we can get a Pegula type figure to bankroll this thing?!

Re: The Ultimate Tournament
I told Tim Derozier after the 1st night that with the SNC kids coming off suspension for our game vs. you, I figured Coach Coghlin would throw raw meat into the locker room before the game and we'd be leaving Duluth oh-fer. Shows what I know.
I couldn't drink all the beer. Even with all the other SSC parents there, we couldn't finish the beer. For that I apologize.
