They haven't mentioned men's hockey yet, and I could see them waiting
some time to add it. A women's team can play at their on-campus rink,
with some minor improvements, and helps their Title IX situation. A
men's team would have to play at the War Memorial, and share that with
the AHL Crunch, and offsets the Title IX advantage gained by adding
women's hockey.
