Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
This was inevitable, right?
Well, assuming that UConn can finally start looking at playing in a rink not suited for high school hockey, that is.
The long, slow transformation into the BEHC has begun...If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

Good-bye Bruce Marshall.

HCC is a haul for students... and its not like UConn hockey has a strong tradition or roots. It should be interesting to see what they do in the meantime.BS UML '04, PhD UConn '09

Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
Meh. No thanks. I'm fine with 11 teams.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
I like it for one big reason. I think the conference is committed to finding a 12th team. I'd rather have that team be UConn than RPI or The Q. Its also a better fit with PC, BC, and UMass. The league needs to be vigilant about the school upgrading their program but aside from that this plan works for me.Legally drunk???? If its "legal", what's the ------- problem?!? - George Carlin

Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
Originally posted by KnightsOfTheRound View PostI agree, and UConn as a large New England state university is a better fit than almost any other school with D1 hockey. I can't imagine UConn would go to HE to be a doormat year after year. They will be good eventually, which will be good for the conference
The next eastern conference will come out of the western AHA split... RMU, Mercyhurst, Canisius, etc. (excluding Air Force). After that, the gates are wide open and you'll see expansion throughout the northern atlantic, Ohio, and Illinois.Last edited by Patman; 03-28-2012, 02:58 PM.BS UML '04, PhD UConn '09

Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
I don't trust Uconn to follow through on any construction promises they make. Look at the problems Maine, UHN, Lowell, Zoomass and Vermont have in getting funds. I'll be happy with 11 until they obtain financing and break ground on a campus rink.Originally posted by mookie1995bc is superior to bu in nearly everything. while it is sad that it has come to it, it's the truth. if bu doesn't like it, improve.

Re: UConn to apply to Hockey East
From the article: Last year, UConn hired the same consulting firm used by the new National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC), to determine the school's capability for upgrading the program.
That must mean this is part of the greater conspiracy to destroy college hockey's smaller programs. Forget all the talk of them upgrading anything. This is meant to harm, not help.
