Surprise! It's not the fourth straight day with an article about UConn! (Though that may come later.) With all the focus on football scheduling this week, I thought it would be fun to shift gears and discuss my wish list for nonconference hockey games in the years to come.
Obviously, scheduling is a lot less of a big deal in hockey than it is in football. The meat, potatoes and veggies of every year's hockey schedule are the conference games. Additionally, teams have about 12 non conference games to play with, and there are only 61 D1 teams to begin with.
