    From Lucia's recent comments I do get the distinct impression that he realizes the importance of continuing the UM/UND rivalry. Given the fact that maximizing revenue was the No. 1 driver behind the decision(s) to realign the conferences, it becomes hard to fathom these two schools not taking advantage of the garanteed sellouts and high TV ratings that a continuation of the rivalry would bring to each school. It's almost a given that with athletic departments looking for ways to bring in added revenue in the future, the continuation of this series will be a priority in the future.
    I am fine with taking some years off the UND series. We'll have plenty of rivalries. And I'd rather see a DU, etc sprinkled in there.

    I bet revenue is the top reason that he is continuing the series with UND.
    Go Gophers!

      Anyone know of anywhere that I could get a single seat or SRO ticket for Saturday's game under the absurd asking price of stubhub? What are my chances of getting a ticket from a scalper at the game at a reasonable price?

          You're probably looking at $75 outside the arena until the end of the first.

            According to UMD writer Kevin Pates, MN Cup is indeed going to happen and the matchups for the inagural tourney have even been set.

              Guess I don't need to ask tDon on Monday about how the non-conference schedule is going to line up, this article pretty much says it all. Shame that tournament didn't work out. I'd have definitely showed up for all four games, and that would have left another 4 games available for the Whioux, ND, a couple East Coast teams, or the like every year.

              Can I help if we track that person down?

              I've given a little thought to selling my Friday ticket, but it would need to be at an absurd price to get me to not go to the game, sorry.

                  So does that mean the Gophers will have a series @BSU then since they are the odd team out the first year?
                  "It ain't over, baby! And that took only six seconds!"

                  USCHO gives me another reason to not do work while I am at work.

                    That's the way I understood it will work.

                      I like that. BSU is a roadtrip my group has wanted to make but haven't been able to make it work. With Houghton earlier this year, the SCSU/Kato away games, and Madison/Chicago later this year, I don't think we will be able to make the Bemidji trip this year. Hopefully this is true and the Gophers play up there again even is it isn't the WCHA.

                        So what I expected to be 6H and 2A vs. MN teams is now:
                        2@Xcel vs. SCSU & UMD/MNSU
                        2@BSU
                        ?
                        That leaves 4 games we don't know about.

                          I'm not sure I really get the whole mid-week game thing. First, your conference partners will all be 2 game sets, so weekends make sense. Most of your non-con are either 2 game sets, or the arrangement with BC/NE, which will likely be weekend sets as well.

                          If they play a mid-week game, it will likely be against another instate rival, since no-one wants to play a single in the middle of the week.

                          Now I didn't mind the mid-week game against ND, but in my 23 years of being a season ticket holder, the only other games held mid-week were exhibitions against national teams, Canadian college teams, or the National team. I don't see where this will really change that dramatically.

                            So has anyone commented on/seen the details for the new NHL CBA and if the rule has changed on how long a team owns a player's rights after drafting, or any other rule that could affect college hockey?

                                So nothing changed? Any rookie salary change?
