Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
I don't think there are any people on the boards from a non-NCHC or B1G school that wouldn't want to go back to the CCHA/WCHA setup for their school....It's never too early to start the Pre-game festivities

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
Big Ten was inevitable when Terry Pegula decided to buy Penn State a team.
The WCHA and CCHA would have survived just fine without UW, MN, MSU, UM and OSU. The damage was started by UND, Denver, et al when they decided they were too good for smaller WCHA schools and the ripple effect killed the CCHA.

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
I miss it but things always change. I've accepted the B1G although grudgingly at first.
I miss mostly the CCHA banquet and tournament in Detroit. Having the Ren Center as the host hotel all decked out and the conference discount. We fans were basically orphaned by the B1G as far as how they ran the B1G tournament and never were we fans treated as well as the CCHA did for us.
Even if the CCHA was still around the Joe is gone so again, it wouldn't have the same feel.

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
I think what I miss most is the CCHA Tournament and Awards. It was a terrific event that brought out fans from all the schools to interact and enjoy the game. It also the team players and staffs a chance to mix in a way they didn’t really get the chance to during the season."The use of common sense and logic will not be tolerated and may result in fine and/or suspension."- Western Professional Hockey League By-laws. 1999-2000.

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
As a fan that enjoys traveling to away games, I miss the CCHA. Western, Ferris, Bowling Green were all easy day trips for me. Trips to the U.P. were always fun.
I also miss yelling short jokes at Rico Blasi.Originally posted by West Texas Wolverine

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
While I miss the CCHA, it's been long enough where the nWCHA has grown on me. We're still playing some combination of Ohio State, Miami State, and Western each year so it doesn't feel all that different from the old days. Getting Michigan and Michigan State on the schedule more regularly is about the only thing missing.

Just a little effort would have gone a long way.
I miss playing more in-state teams, and I also miss the championship weekend.
But I do enjoy seeing Wisconsin and Minnesota every year that much. It's fun.

In fact when I inquire NOBODY seems to know where they've stashed it. Perhaps I should start looking for it to show up on Pawn Stars?
I can see Rick now, "Well the bad news is it's not real silver, only plated and it's from a conference that no longer exists and nobody cares about so I'll give you fifty bucks for it."Last edited by Hockeybuckeye; 12-17-2018, 12:55 PM.

Re: Does anyone miss CCHA?
Miami. Miami misses the CCHA.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
