Yawn......

[arugula]

Curious that in the non-BU years, we can't more interesting opposition.  You'd think NYC and MSG would be an incentive.  It's occasionally been good-Michigan, Harvard, but also UNH, UConn, and Penn State.  You'd think a BC or a Notre Dame would be interested and of course both are major draws.

UNH, UConn, and Penn State are above average programs that are also strong draws (with the exception of UNH).

Not sure that UConn is a draw. Penn state generally is a draw, but penn state hockey?

Penn State played Princeton in Philadelphia a few years ago and that arena was 95-99% Penn State people. Of course, Philadelphia has a larger concentration of PSU alums than NYC, but I don't think it'll be a problem getting them out since enough graduates do go to NYC if they don't stay in Pennsylvania

UConn basketball, yes.  UConn hockey?  UConn has hockey?

I think it's new. I could see them being like ASU where they get competitive-ish pretty quick.

UConn has been back in D1 for 20+ years and still hasn't made the NCAAs, and they just won a Hockey East postseason game for the first time this past season after joining the conference in 2014.

Huh.

[upprdeck]

lets see if this game really happens before we worry about it being a draw or not

The school is building a new (too small) on campus arena and making an effort to make hockey relevant (and fill the void left by the whalers in Hartford). They were an afterthought in Atlantic hockey in a rink that made the northford ice pavilion look spacious. The program is on the upswing for the first time. Is it a brand name on college hockey? No. Is it a brand name in New York and is there a high concentration of alumni in the area? Yes. I'd much rather see UConn in this game than another ecac opponent.

UConn is recruiting very well. They have an incoming freshman who may be a top-10 pick in next year's NHL draft.

I don't recall them ever being D-I earlier. At the time whebn the ECAC split into D-I and D-III leagues in the early 1960's, they played on an outdoor, uncovered rink.

I thought Penn State hockey traveled pretty well to MSG.
