    I totally disagree. You can take the "trap" or 1-2-2, and tweak it to make it as aggressive as you want on the 4-check. The key to this 4-check is that you have to be an unbelievable transition team. You have to be able to transition from defense to offense in one or two quick passes in order to attack!

      Expanding the ECACHL is an interesting proposition that was never mentioned.First off anything is doable....second with the advent of these super leagues there aren't going to be many quality out of conference games available anyways...third I don't believe these super leagues are done adding teams yet we are just seeing the tip of the iceberg,in fact I see the move of ND to the east as a temporary thing,it was their only option given the warp speed in which all this went down,it seems to me that the time has come where their football will need to join a conference they have avoided it for years but they are slowley being backed into a corner and as the football team goes so goes the hockey team coming to hockey east bought them some time to work out their TV deals....And fourth this realignment is all about money and TV is what brings the money so I believe the long range plan for NCHC is exactly what the name implies NATIONAL not western not mid west but national so the thought that they might attempt to start picking off some high profile teams from the east is not out of the question after all I believe The east coast is the largest TV market and I believe to bring in the big players NBC,CBS,ABC,ESPN or VERSUS the deal needs to be across the board and especially on the east coast ater all thats where all the TV sets are !!!!!...so to take the best of the rest and form an eastern league that encompasses the larger to mid size markets ie:Boston.Hartford.Albany.Rochester.Buffalo is not a bad idea and Im sure could be worked out.Bring out the black helicopters and standby its all good for college hockey !!!!!I'd like to wish everyone on the board a safe and enjoyable Christmas !!!

        Sure, as long as we disregard the Ivies.

        I thought that the super leagues were going with small conferences so that it's easier to get the autobids and have more out of conference games. Yea, most of those out of conference games are going to be against other super leagues, but there will still be some leftover "warm-up" games. I mean, they're going to have to find teams to beat up on in the beginning of the season. Might be AHA teams, might be bottom-of-the-barrel ECAC / WCHA teams. Who knows.

        There is exactly one conference in all of NCAA Division I-A FBS that has an associated Division I Hockey conference. If you see Notre Dame joining the Big 10, then yes, Notre Dame hockey will follow the football team. Otherwise? I'm not buying it.

        They tried. They failed.

          Exactly, the NCHC and the B1G will have more OOC games not fewer, however most will probably go to each other and WCHA schools. I am not sure about the HEA with 11 teams.

          I doubt that they tried that hard. I also doubt that it would ahve made any difference if they tried harder.

            BU and NU are the "outliers" in HEA by being the only private non-Catholic schools. But, NU doesn't have the history and BU isn't going anywhere without BC and a whole host of other schools. So, really, it's going to be very difficult for NCHC to expand eastward.

                          You forgot Festivus! Which is strangely appropriate given the Airing of Grievances in this thread...

                          Here's hoping for some mental Feats of Strength this second half of the season for the team to pull out of this slump - starting with the UConn tourney.

                            Do not disagree with anyones thoughts here just throwing out my thoughts....college hockey even with all the changes now will not look anything like it does now in the near future...to think that our team or our league will not change wer'e kidding ourselves somethings going to give or be gone.I don't Know if Hagwell has it in him but he better start figuring it all out !!!!

                              I'll probably end up posting tomorrow, but big surprise, when don't I?

                              I will be hitting up the UCONN tourney next week.

                                No one's been posting today... must be a holiday/holy day. Blessings and good will to all.

                                I haven't been posting as much lately, but will get back into it... The last big contact for me was the tailgating party at HFH: posters, fun and food. Good times for all.
