    Supposedly the WCHA schedule for next season is already floating around with tentative dates.
    • DU owes Vermont a visit.
    • The Denver Cup is supposedly being moved to November (probably Thanksgiving)
    • No games around New Years to conflict with World Juniors (Wrenn, Shore, Zucker & Bennett are candidates for Team USA).
    • One visit home or away against every WCHA team.
    • 4 games against CC.
    • 2 extra series against two other WCHA teams.
    With the potential of 3 or 4 players gone, I was thinking they would keep the showcase format for the Denver Cup. Didn't think about changing the dates,
    Wonder whether it will keep the showcase format.
    GO DU !!!

      It has more to do with what the opponents coming in want versus DU's desire. If the only way to bring in a "Boston College" is have a showcase, then so be it.

      I heard that Providence may be one of the teams coming it. If true that probably rules out any other Hockey East schools. DU can also throw Air Force in to take care of that home commitment.

        I haven't heard if they would keep the showcase format but I would assume so because of how well it worked this year. If we would have had the tourny format we wouldn't have had a chance to play BC
        GO DU!!!!

        ROWDY IN THE FIRST ROW!!!

          I have also heard rumblings that Yale might be involved. The Bulldogs are #5 in the USCHO poll right now, and Keith Allain has really turned that program into a more serious player.

            Let's split some semantic hairs, shall we? I may want Wisconsin to lose more than I want CC to lose under the present circumstances, and of course they can't both get swept, but I just can't go so far as to cheer FOR CC. I figure I will cheer against both teams, and come out somewhat disappointed regardless.

                Wow!! Nice press for Bozak!! Putting him on a line with Kessel is just plain lethal, and I imagine the Russian kid is no slouch either!!

                          At least Kessel got the assist
                          Bozak is a +2 in the 1st period

                            Bozak now +2 on the night as Kulemin scored late in the 2nd period and Kessel has two assists. Tyler also picked up a hooking penalty in the 1st period.

                              Just gave Bozak an assist on the last goal as well.Now he needs to drop the gloves for a Gordie.
