Quote from: upprdeckThe schools may make more coming here and playing than they do playing at home for all we know.

How?

I don't think they get a piece of the gate and there are no broadcast rights (or what there are are league, and meager).

Unless we literally pay teams to come to Lynah, I can't see how any of them gross dollar one.

Hosting a game costs money too.. maybe we pay for something, I dont know how college hockey does it.  

Just bball and fball do it for money maybe?

Opening against a 3-time national champion who has played 5 games, what could go wrong?

Those coming from the current coach, Scott Sandelin, in 2011, 2018, 2019. Plus, since 2011, an additional FF semifinal loss and title game loss.

UMD plays at Minnesota the following week. Maybe they look past us?

They were also on pace to be a 1-seed in 2020 and go for the three-peat when the season got cancelled.

When the 1994 MLB season got cut short due to a strike, Sports Illustrated did a mock-up of the postseason that wasn't, including a magazine cover of the Cubs-Red Sox World Series.  (It was funnier at the time since both clubs had decades-long droughts going.)  Maybe CHN should do a mockup homepage for 2020 with a Cornell-UMD national championship game.  (Although to complete the analogy we'd need Clarkson winning the title.)

At the time of the stoppage, North Dakota was #1 in PWR, Cornell #1 in the polls, with the conference tournaments coming up. There were murmurs once everything was officially cancelled that they should raise a banner in the Ralph.

Not sure if this has been posted but....

A USCHO post indicated Cornell will be playing in a 4-team tourney in Lake Placid over Chrsitmas with UMass, Clarkson and Arizona State.

The Rancor

I just can't see the point in a holiday tourny or any OOC game vs an ECAC member. Surely they can get 4 teams not in the same conference to get together for a holiday set. I liked the original Florida lineup because of this. Ohio State, Maine, Cornell and "plus one" was fun.

I agree with your point, but Maine and Cornell were the hosts in Florida. OSU was not an annual participant.

Trotsky

I like the idea of an annual Cornell-Clarkson hosted tourney, where we each play somebody in the SF.  Make Lake Placid Cornell's home away from home.  Demystify it for March.

What I don't understand is why ASU is coming, when they could host the single best location for a Christmas tournament.  Phoenix is as pleasant in December as it is horrifying in August.

we make it sound like travel to ASU is something the team and the kids want to do over the holiday.. many hated the florida trip
