Hockey is really cool! Please continue reading though. Other than Michigan, Mich St, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and maybe a couple more, hockey is a sport for schools that really don't have other moneymakers. I don't want to be a Denver, a Lake Superior, or anything like that.

Very expensive sport but on the bright side it isn't overly difficult to add hockey and be competitive at least from what i've seen. Notre Dame I think re-added hockey in the last 10-15 years and are now very successful. Penn State is getting a team and from what I've heard anyway, are expected by Big Ten schools to be good pretty quickly.

A big reason I think it'd be cool to have is that it'd give me something to watch in the winter other than basketball which has maybe a home game per week. And I think eventually if we could beat UND that'd be pretty awesome to beat them at their own thing. That'd probably take quite awhile.

Lets keep baseball(great facility) and save our money for football/basketball. I am not willing to sacrifice making the big dance and the SHAC so we can make a frozen four. I believe thats what the boosters and alumni have indicated as well.
