    I thought they had their own Pegula. BTW, Englestad cost $100M so I assume we're looking at $200M now.

      Have you ever seen Englestad? It's kind of a palace when it comes to college hockey venues.

        Think: a Mini-Me Xcel, for those that haven't been to the Nazi Bunker.

        Just popped in to mention attendance in NHL arenas tonight:

        21,485 MIN*
        20,027 DET
        19,358 STL
        18,347 EDM
        17,530 CLB
        16,232 FLA
        *MN High School Hockey Tourney

        Edit: also, this is NOT the championship game.
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          I think it's cool and unique without comparing it to anything else, NHL attendance or whatever.


          It's simply awesome on its own.

                This seems to have upset you.

                          GreatLakerMohawk (retired), noted jerk and noted RPI fan, came out to the F5 once. He was astounded. Totally blown away by the fandom. Just sayin'. He's some big shot with the NHL network now.

                            This was also when the awesome version of the WCHA existed. He wouldn't see that now.

                              Agreed. My point being, it's more than just HS. Or college. Or pro. Its the sport itself.

                                Hah!

                                Funny that the one touting it would miss the point.

                                It's not the sport. It runs far deeper than that.

                                It's the culture of the sport. It's the lifestyle. It's part of who hockey people are as people. I should know.


                                And yes... there is a difference.

                                Had you played, coached or been from a hockey family or contributed to that culture in any way, you'd understand the difference.


                                Hockey snobbery is fun, isn't it?
