College hockey\u2019s tides are changing.<\/p>\n

The emergence of new programs and their alignment into new conferences are inserting new conversation pieces into the overall landscape, and the rising profiles of Arizona State and Augustana are two examples in a world that looks nothing like its historical decades. The transformation is sometimes hard to swallow, but the moving and grinding plates are part of how growth is shifting its overall profile.<\/p>\n

No two moves are the same, but the base of the sport shares the same values on which it expects to move forward into a new era. The build is being done with a certain togetherness, but that\u2019s why every move is well-calculated and not simply a case of team-into-league. With the Arizona State and Augustana moves in particular, the next natural question is about what happens next in college hockey now that unbalanced leagues are embracing their new structure.<\/p>\n

\u201cCompeting with an odd number of teams, I think, was a sticking point at one point,\u201d said NCHC commissioner Heather Weems. “But I think we\u2019ve seen that it can work to have an odd number of teams. The good part for us is that we\u2019re in a place where this is where we\u2019re at. We\u2019re absolutely comfortable, and we feel good about our pod system. We made a decision about how we\u2019re going to do our playoff format, and all nine teams are going to play [in the postseason] during the first year. That doesn\u2019t mean we wouldn\u2019t consider additional teams or having another expansion, but I don\u2019t know that there\u2019s an urgency that it has to be filled if we don\u2019t think we would be as successful as with our [current] odd number.\u201d<\/p>\n

The days of leagues needing to add teams simply to keep membership afloat no longer exist, and schools can no longer simply start hockey programs with expectations of finding membership within any of the six conferences, which is why each situation carries its own set of case-by-case requirements.<\/p>\n

It used to be, for example, that people popularly viewed Atlantic Hockey as an exit ramp for programs either rising or falling. New teams that didn\u2019t want to sink immediate funding into their teams could find a home in the AHA, and orphaned teams left behind by their leagues automatically defaulted to the conference in the court of popular opinion. The league itself was formed with a \u201ccost containment\u201d structure that protected programs in the Northeast against the rising expenses associated with Division I hockey, but things have unquestionably changed for a conference that spent the last decade growing itself through internal mechanisms.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not very difficult for anybody looking at the composition of our teams and members to see that we have public and private schools, large and small schools, and geographic differences,\u201d said new Atlantic Hockey commissioner Michelle Morgan. \u201cWe have faith-based institutions and service academies, and we\u2019re probably the most diverse when you talk about categories or demographics for how a school might classify or identify themselves, but at the same point, we all come together with the common thread of hockey.\u201d<\/p>\n

It hasn\u2019t always been strictly about funding, but the choice to invest in Atlantic Hockey programs exploded them into the national scene in recent years. The 2014 opening of the Gene Polisseni Center helped RIT move out of its humble roots at Ritter Arena, and Bentley and Sacred Heart later replaced their small, dank rinks with glittery, shiny arenas while investment strategies helped produce American International\u2019s four-year dynasty. Mercyhurst, Holy Cross and Air Force all hosted the Ice Breaker Tournament, and Robert Morris overcame the untimely disbanding of a program to rejoin the league this year.<\/p>\n

Those growth initiatives are in line with places like Augustana and Arizona State, both of which invested significant cash flow into their programs\u2019 overall infrastructure, and while it doesn\u2019t automatically guarantee Atlantic Hockey of an at-large bid in the tournament, it also doesn\u2019t mean the league is now an automatic home for a new program.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have an opportunity for growth,\u201d Morgan emphasized. \u201cWith six members on our women\u2019s side and 12 on our men\u2019s side, it would be great one day to consider a 12th member for a more balanced schedule and even number to round it out, and with six member institutions for our women\u2019s league, there\u2019s certainly an opportunity for growth to add a few more so that we\u2019re a little more hefty and robust in terms of membership, but we\u2019re not going to add anybody on either gender, in either league, for the sake of adding. It has to be right for a lot of different reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s mutually beneficial for the institution that\u2019s going to become a member,\u201d she said, \u201cbut also to our conference schools and the conference as a whole. And that really boils down to strategy. I think something that\u2019s in my initial focus for my tenure is really writing up a game plan of what\u2019s worked well and maybe what hasn\u2019t worked so well, along with how we\u2019re working smarter with the resources that we do have.\u201d<\/p>\n

None of this locks a door on membership in any league, but understanding how leagues are changing is a critical realization. The sport is expensive, and marriages of conveniences historically led to messy divorces. The proud traditions that were once part of the WCHA and CHA no longer exist because arranged relationships didn\u2019t survive, and building success requires a concerted effort from everyone involved.<\/p>\n

The biggest thing we wanted to see and what\u2019s always been important for the league\u2019s membership is that the program is committed to our tradition of excellence,\u201d Weems emphasized. \u201cObviously, Arizona State had a great tradition in their club program, but you can\u2019t change that they\u2019re relatively new. But they\u2019ve demonstrated success, and they\u2019re here to play. They\u2019re here to play a strong schedule and compete, so while some of our programs have a strong, long tradition, once we saw Arizona State\u2019s commitment to next-level excellence, we knew they\u2019d fit in with us. They have a brand, in some ways, that\u2019s probably the most notable brand of any of our schools just because of their department\u2019s strength [as a traditional power conference team].<\/p>\n

\u201cCollege hockey in general has really evolved,\u201d Morgan noted, \u201cand I\u2019ve seen it change since I\u2019ve been in college athletics over the last 12-plus years. That\u2019s for all sports, not just hockey, but the world of sport and the proverbial arms race for providing the student-athlete experience, they\u2019re challenges that institutions face. Athletic departments are not immune to enrollment-driven institutions or if budgets are getting tighter, and that\u2019s forcing a hand at times for departments to make tough decisions about what sports they sponsor.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to imagine a world where college hockey doesn\u2019t change, but it\u2019s impossible to envision what comes next. Ideas won\u2019t stop spitballing, and there are easy, low-hanging pieces of fruit available for the teams in Alaska or at Lindenwood, Stonehill and Long Island.<\/p>\n

The women\u2019s programs that started the New England Women\u2019s Hockey Alliance have enough membership to start a men\u2019s league if the six Northeast-10 Conference teams ever decided to play-up into Division I, and both Alaska schools survived economic question marks compounded by the loss of their conference affiliation. Constant growth exists with women\u2019s hockey and at the Division III levels, and the ongoing hunger and appetite for the game is proving that the ship is too far sailed to return hockey to its lower locales.<\/p>\n

How new teams would survive or support the sport while enriching talent is all part of the open dialogue, but there\u2019s no surefire path fully charting the game\u2019s course. Hockey will change, but the manner in which it changes is up to the people living its life and breathing its breath. Future success is dictated by the combination of past and present moves, and the collaborative drive is very much a piece of writing college hockey\u2019s story over the next decade and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
