It was a gift earmarked specifically to bring College Hockey to PSU. It built us first rate facilities, funded both a start up men's and women's program, and hired top coaches. It was never a question in the majority of PSU Supporters minds whether hockey would succeed in HV. There is a tremendous love for the sport in PA despite the majority of us older fans not growing up playing the game like is the case in MN, MI or throughout New England. It is fun to watch fans of NHL Rivals like the Pens, Flyers, Rangers, and Devils all rally around one team inside The Pegloo. I imagine there is a bit of that going on for Uconn Hockey as well among the fans of NHL Teams in your neck of the woods. [/QUOTE]
