I'm very upbeat. Much of what the other schools are showcasing falls apart on close inspection. Nigara's rink renovation will actually shrink its capacity to 1200 and QU has yet to find the funding for its new rink. And given the comments of Yale's AD in today's New Haven Register -- academics and the national prestige of the League are a big part of the thinking -- I believe Niagara, Mercyhurst and SH are goners. HC will get the nod but I wouldn't be that shocked that QU comes in also based on the comments of HC 1843. Prediction -- HC women will be D-I within 4 years.
My perspective as an outsider is that Coach Pearl did a good job on the Q&A. His responses seemed honest, and his perspectives appeared realistic and not compromised by over-dramatic visions or inflated "political" rhetoric.
Geez...I'd love to see HC play Colgate in The Centrum. Or, better than that, how about a four-team holiday tournament at the Centrum!

I'd like to see Colgate consistently beat HC anywhere. HA! It would be fun and the start of a good rivalry.. I think HC will have the edge due to geography and academics.
