Season over?

I would bet on it

2020 NCHC Tournament Cancelled Effective Immediately

https://www.nchchockey.com/news_article/show/1094931

NCAA Tourney will be cancelled too. Just hasn't been announced yet but think about it. If the conference qualifying Tournaments are cancelled, how can you seed a National Tournament?

The season is unofficially over. For everybody.

That they didn't try to post-pone it & simply cancelled it is very interesting.

Well, I guess we finish #18 in the Pairwise, so one down from last year. (Weird, I thought we were #16 on Monday, was there a game played since then?)

Hard to say what this team could've done. They were getting hot at the right time, but were also inconsistent.

I'm bummed & disappointed for sure.

Maybe in a couple weeks the hysteria will be over & they'll decide to play the remaining games. If not, can't say I'll return to the hockey boards till next big news for the team (which ones turn pro, schedule announcement, etc) .

Have a lot of good players graduating; I hope this isn't the end of our 'glory years', but we should continue to have good players coming in.

"Hysteria"?? Word from health experts today is that in two weeks, the U. S. will be where Italy is today. Due to my wife's position, this is followed very closely in my house.

Otherwise, I agree, it is a total bummer. My 6 year old grandson is a huge fan...goes to most home games, knows all the player's numbers, and follows the game very well...…..and was heartbroken this morning when his dad told him he couldn't go the games this weekend.
