Updates

Hope everyone is having a great summer. You know fall is coming up when the Broncos start training camp! Personally, football is number 1 to me but hockey is that close second. So, the Broncos starting can only mean that the NCAA Hockey season is a mere 2 months away. The Tigers start out at home vs U of Calgary October 6th (in case you missed all the media coverage for the season, oh wait...). Since there won't be a full 3 days of ESPN hype to cover the start of the season like the football counterparts, it's our job to create our own hype here on the Web.
I'm starting to modify things on the blog to get ready for the new season. I've added my own logo for the season, a countdown timer and a fun poll to judge your feelings about the 07/08 edition of the Tigers (and I fixed the amazing typo so it got reset from 1 vote back to zero so show some pride and vote!). My logo is having some compatibility issues with Blogger and is squished so I hope get that fixed as soon as I figure out what's causing it. I removed the rotating googlevids app. due to some "inappropriate" vids that snuck into the hockey category. Don't worry, the vids from the playoffs last year can still be found in the LINKS section. That's all for now. If there are any suggestions or comments about the site please let me know!!

College Hockey will adopt 2 referee rule

But we have to wait a year. The competition committee released their new list of rule changes and the one that stands out the most will be the 2 referee system that the NHL uses. However, it won't be in effect until 08-09. Another aspect under consideration are modifying OT rules. One example would be 4 on 4 or a shootout.
