U.S. College Hockey Online (USCHO), a very reputable site, is reporting that the deal is done for 2014-2015 with an announcement as early as Monday. http://www.uscho.com/2012/06/20/sources-connecticut-jumping-to-hockey-east-for-2014-15-season/
I somehow thought a day like this would be possible. We were playing Sacred Heart and I keep yelling, "Elevate the program!" Everyone skates around but one dude stares at me and gives me a nasty look. Floored with hockey players, too. One of the rowdiest bunches I ever saw. We were Division II back then. Hey Murph, you.
AW RIGHT! I remember going to games outdoors before playing outdoors was the in thing! I'm really excited by this move. BC, BU, Maine, New Hampshire...plus other national teams...
