  • Welcome Back to the WCHA Northern Michigan

    While the i's are not dotted nor the t's crossed, I still think it's appropriate to welcome NMU back into the WCHA.

    Welcome back.

      Re: Welcome Back to the WCHA Northern Michigan

      That Mining Journal contains an almost ludicrous editing choice in reporting this ... it says
      The release from the WCHA says the league hopes to make NMU's membership official next week.
      The release most certainly DOES NOT say that. It says ...
      Formal approval of Northern Michigan's application for membership in the WCHA will occur next week.
      There is nothing "hope"ful about that. It's definitive.

        Looking forward to a new era of Cat hockey. Renewing the league rivalry with MTU and building new rivalries will be exciting.



        Any early speculation on where a WCHA playoff final four might be played in the future? St. Paul doesn't seem to be a realistic option after the 12-13 season. Maybe Green Bay or Milwaukee?

          New rivalries? How about old rivalries.

            Flashy and I have been talking about the Resch Center in GB - newer building and a realistic size for the new WCHA.

              That would be my personal vote.

                What about the Kohl Center in Madison?

                  Do you think the WCHA might lean away from hosting the tournament in a state without any conference teams, though? The location might be central, but I think they'd tend to favor someplace in the UP or (more likely) Minnesota, though I don't know where.

                    So that's 2 out of 3 UP schools. Think they try for Lake State? Though by my reckoning it is an 11 hour bus ride from Moorhead to the Soo. Not a far plane flight, but a long bus ride.

                    Resch Center would be the best location until they outgrow it. On the flip side, what are the X and the St. Paul Chamber of Commerce going to do about losing the Final 5?

                            If I was a betting man I would say it will be at the league champions arena.

                              St. Norbert then can go D1, less then 10 miles from GB. I know it won't happen, just a thought.
