I know NHL is a copycat league and a lot of teams are taking, you know, whether it's D zone coverage or, you know, power play stuff from other teams.

Is it like that in college or are you guys looking at NHL games and going through?

I got a larger question about college sports right now.

And there's been so much discussion that it's in a weird spot.

And college hockey is no different.

It's obviously not to the level of college football with the money involved in the NIL, but it's still right there.

I'm curious, are there any things that you've talked to other coaches about where you're like, God, I think we got to switch this up?

Personally, to me, the transfer rule, I always...

hated the fact you had to sit out a year because if you were a junior and you realize I'm not really going to play the next two years I was like oh I should be able to go but the transferring every year to me is insane so I don't know if there was something for you right now it's like I think we need to address this

NCAA rules, he might be on the fucking roster if he wanted to be.

so do you do you almost do you almost think it's kind of unfair the way like the criticism he's getting because i mean i played junior it's a wide open game like the it's a it's a skill game there's so much room to make plays you're not getting hit and then i went to a college game over thanksgiving break it was michigan harvard and there is no room on the ice there granted there's probably not as many high high-end talent as he is but like

I honestly think it's a little unfair to give him this criticism because, like you said, how young he is.

He's never played over here, and he's playing with guys that are 24, 25 years old.

In 2013, your first year, was that the first year the team had gone from ACHA or club to D1?

And at that point, club hockey there.

And now club hockey, it kind of blows my mind now because there's a lot of schools that have two or three teams.

Like very pretty good hockey players are going there, not making the number one team.

Like it's an competitive, awesome thing for kids to have that can't play D1 or D3, whatever.

But when you guys had it, you were kind of the kings because at that time, weren't you getting four or five thousand a game?

Well, G says UNLV is next.
