Quote from: underskillwill that be in lieu of a Cornell home game, or will this be a third game, similar to Colgate in Newark a few years back

Pretty sure it would have to be a third. I'm not sure the member schools even have the option of moving their required home-and-homes to a neutral site.

I would not think either team would give up their home date.  It would be very harsh for Cornell undergrads, and for Harvard that game basically finances the rest of their season.  On the Harvard game thread for the third QF they estimated actual attendance at about 200.

ECAC schools have done this, most recently, I think, was the Ireland trip of Colgate and Brown in 2015. That was a Colgate home game.

I don't know if the Ivies have any rules.

I would think it would be a third game. That's what Harvard and Yale did when they played those few years at MSG.

Just noticed that a poster on USCHO says Cornell is playing at Northern Michigan.

Hopefully it's the weekend of 11/9. I'm in Ann Arbor 11/16 + 17, so I miss the Q/PU weekend. But if we're in the Upper Peninsula the weekend before, I'll drive out there and then spend the next week between the UP and A2.

Maybe UM will have home hockey games when I'm out there.

Depends on the hotel (from what I've heard).

Surely Goldman will bus in their own supply.

Nice to see some slightly more difficult non-conference games than this past season, but as a senior, class of '18, I can't help but think back to freshman year when we played Omaha and Denver at home. It would be nice to have at least one series a year with an NCAA-caliber team from another conference.

wonder when this email actually goes to the season ticket holders to let them know of this deal.

It already has come to me.
