The offseason has been uneventful and boring. This morning, this little news nugget hit Twitter.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.collegehockeynews.com\/news\/2017\/06\/23_NHL-Hopes-to-Help-Bring-More.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">From College Hockey News<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The NHL will announce later today\u00a0that the league will sponsor studies at five U.S. colleges to\u00a0examine the feasibility of a Division I hockey program on those campuses, according to an NHL source. The University of Illinois will be the first university to undergo the study.<\/p>\n<p>The news doesn&#8217;t mean that Illinois, or any of the other four schools, will join Division I, but the study should give those schools a framework as to what will be needed in order to make the jump, including financials.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t look too far into this. Starting a Division I college hockey team is very expensive and we haven\u2019t seen any wealthy donors stepping forward to start a college hockey program. It will be interesting to see what comes out of this.<\/p>\n<p>I have to agree with the sentiments below,\u00a0more college hockey\u00a0is better.\u00a0 However, we don&#8217;t need anymore ugly hockey helmets.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">More college hockey is better.

At the present time, no one wants them. Their arena situation is causing them a lot of trouble. Until they solve that problem, I don\u2019t see them getting into a conference.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s more on the ASU saga. Honestly, I am tickled pink that the NCHC didn\u2019t just add the Sun Devils last year. More and more, in hind sight, it\u2019s looking like a very good decision. Now ASU has decided to back away from possible membership in the WCHA. It&#8217;s time for ASU to get serious if they want to join one of the conferences.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.collegehockeynews.com\/news\/2017\/06\/22_Arizona-State-Withdraws-From.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here\u2019s the story per College Hockey News<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>According to sources, the biggest factor in the talks was the nature of subsidies Arizona State would make to the WCHA and its teams, particularly in regards to travel compensation. One of the biggest factors for walking away from the deal was Arizona State&#8217;s belief that the WCHA was asking for too much, and it was being leveraged because it&#8217;s a large school that could theoretically afford it.<\/p>\n<p>The two Alaska schools currently pay a subsidy for travel to the other WCHA teams.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Instead of forking money over each year, (Arizona State) can invest in its program and recruits and schedule,&#8221; a source told CHN.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bickering over Travel Subsidies.\u00a0ASU continues to spin their wheels.
