The college hockey shuffle

Have long been mentioned as top candidates to add the sport, while Minnesota State-Moorhead is the most recent school to dip its toes into the college hockey pool. At a press conference on July 15, MSU-Moorhead announced that the school is about 40 percent toward a goal of raising $37 million for an endowment to fund the addition of NCAA Division I hockey at the university. are now faced with a conference on shaky ground and the loss of guaranteed games against Big Ten foes. While the CCHA is actively looking to strengthen the league by adding teams, the loss of marquee programs like Michigan and Michigan State could very well mean a loss of revenue for the smaller programs in the conference - revenue that those schools rely on to keep their hockey programs alive. Could the loss of big-name conference opponents and the subsequent loss of revenue result in the contraction of college hockey programs? That remains to be seen. Most of the smaller schools have gone on record as saying they are committed to maintaining their hockey programs, but the past 11 months have taught us that anything can happen in the college hockey world. With the creation of the Big Ten and the NCHC, fans, recruits and parents can expect to see increased exposure to college hockey in the form of regular nationally televised games. Make no mistake, the Big Ten pounced on the opportunity to add college hockey, giving its lucrative Big Ten Network another attractive programming option to sell to its sponsors and fans. Obviously, the strongest programs, both traditionally and recently, now reside in three conferences - the Big Ten, the NCHC and Hockey East. Schools in those conferences will be fighting amongst themselves for their league’s automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament and battling the rest of college hockey for the limited number of at-large bids. The addition of two new conferences to college hockey will mean two more automatic bids, but it also means the number of at-large bids will shrink from 11 to nine to complete the 16-team national tournament. , supporting each other is essential. Though the big boys in the Big Ten and NCHC are in new conferences largely for reasons of self-interest, they know that supporting the smaller schools in the conferences they just left will be vital. It’s important for the individual programs (in terms of scheduling, travel costs, maintaining rivalries) and it’s important for college hockey as a whole.
