USCHO: Don't Expect NCAA Hockey Tournament Format To Change

In recap of annual coaches meetings, overwhelming support cited for current regional format

If you had high hopes that 2015-16 would be the last year of the current NCAA hockey regional format, and were beginning to have visions dance in your head of a tournament game at Conte Forum, or a weekend full of best-of-3 playoff hockey action, it's best you forget about it. According to an article on USCHO, there is "overwhelming support" among D1 coaches for the current regional format, meaning it's unlikely to be changed much when the NCAA's D1 hockey committee meets next month.
