    Probably some state subsidies, though. Don't the toll booths pay you there?
    Now socialism has come to college hockey. I suppose it was bound to happen.

      I'm not sure if UAA and UA_ are state schools or not, but if they are, wouldn't that sort of be expected?

        Not if you're a fiscal conservative who wants to eliminate all non-essential government spending, such as public school and public college sports.

          And what if, instead of tuition being the pricing, they were to use student activity fees? I happen to know of a certain college that could be a good model for that...

              I heard that BIG and NCHC were considering sharing refs. Part of the reason I was told was because BIG has less games and they were going to have week day games. I heard that about three months ago So what 4Four4 is saying seems possible to me. I also know many of the coaches were not happy with the officals in the WCHA and how they were handled so the idea these leagues are fightting for the best refs makes sense. I know there are quite a few former WCHA coaches who are happier than a pig is s**t that they never have to deal with pappa sheppard ever again.

              The Herb Brooks National Hockey Center..... I wonder who originally came up with that.

                Correct.
                Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order.
                dggoddard - Minnesota is THE ELITE Program in all of college hockey.

                  The ref thing is so overrated. They all suck. It isn't going to matter.

                    I highly doubt there are exclusivity contracts because of other leagues (such as the AHL, ECHL, possibly High School hockey in Minnesota), but that's going to be up to where the referees try out in August.

                        I disagree. If the leagues make people accountable things will improve. It will never be as good as the pro's because those are the most talented ref's in the world and get paid a ton of dough to do what they do.

                          Perhaps someone should go try out in August (or at least pick up a copy of the application form) and find out for sure.
