  • Another Hockey Website Closes Shop

    I just thought I would inform everyone here that College Hockey Weekly has closed up shop. They have a little going away message on their front page if you'd like to read it. We had a long conference call this morning, and basically several of the guys really took a hit with Hurricane Sandy to the point where they had to move their focus on getting their lives rebuilt. They offered the reigns to me, but unfortunately I have a little too much on my plate to handle such a commitment. If anyone is interested in picking up the site, you can contact the guys at editor@collegehockeyweekly.com

    Thank you for the great work that you, along with your colleagues, have done with the site. Although we may not get as much regular analysis as ESPN has with other sports, it is refreshing to see such a similar commitment in the online world for a niche sport.

      Good work people, it will be missed. Everyone that posts on this board surely read it. FS23's good name brought me to the site every week. I hope he makes it south for one of the games this weekend.

      I was well over the borderline. I figured I would meet you on your turf.

        I thought it was a very good site. Sorry to hear this.

Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

                That's too bad. I liked your weekly predictions, especially the fact that some of you were better than "The Predictor."

He was downright interested until we came to the use of sticks, and then he threw up his hands. He said, 'No, that game is not for our University. Notre Dame will never endorse any game that puts a club in the hands of an Irishman.' " -- Knute Rockne: All American

                  Thanks again to everyone on here that supported the site. Apparently there has been some interest in someone picking up the site, so hopefully that pans out.
