He's fond of saying, "Not so fast, my friend!" on college football broadcasts. But I haven't cared about those in 10 years, so he may be dead for all I know.
For all I know, Fenton is merely noting that they've not started the application process with ASU.
The tweet seemed like one of those standard non-denial denials.
Maybe, maybe not. I'd have expected something like "We haven't received an application from Arizona State or any other school. We'll review anything we get." or similar. I think that it's more of a matter of fact — they haven't had formal talks within the league or with ASU. But obviously they have talked — this kinda sounded like they were ****ed.
The unfortunate thing is seeing Ferris win the playoff and then win a game in the NCAA tournament. Somehow, the team who plays the least attractive hockey ends up as your most successful, and the stigma on the league grows even bigger. And even worse, it starts to encourage other teams that the way to be successful is to chip off the glass, dump and chase, clutch and grab, and hope your goalie can help you steal a game.
This comment makes me think you didn't see the Ferris-St. Cloud game.
Through regulation the score was 4-4 and shots were 33-29. But more importantly, there was some great north-south action and it was a really fun game to attend. I'd go so far as to argue it was one of the most entertaining games of the tournament.
I only saw a handfull of Ferris' games throughout the RS, so I will defer comment there to those who are more familiar. But, in my humble opinion, in the NCAA Tournament they represented the conference very well.

It's likely he saw the whole thing through black and gold glasses. A segment of the Tech fanbase increasingly loves to talk as if we were somehow screwed by the realignment, or the WCHA officials fail to dictate the calls that should be made, and I'm getting sick of it. We are becoming like the WCHA version of Freepers, seeing some conspiracy where it never existed. And no, I will not apologize for that characterization.

I would argue that's because st cloud dictates the pace of play. If you watched the wcha tournament, that wasn't really the case. They scored a goal and locked down.

Re: 2016 WCHA Offseason; It's All Over, Save Ferris
I tried looking at UAA's schedule and it went to the 2016-17 season. There is no dates listed but it probably means the WCHA will most likely be releasing the composite schedule anytime now.
I tweeted the WCHA today and they said schedule would come out "by mid-month".

I hope they defined the actual month.
