A quick look at the other WCHA team schedules convinces me that regular-season
games in Alaska are still exempt for the visiting (non-Alaska) team. Here's
how many regular-season games each WCHA team has scheduled:
Alaska-Anchorage -- 34
No exemption for playing at Alaska-Fairbanks :-)
Colorado College -- 36
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage
Denver -- 36
Played in the Nye Frontier Classic at Anchorage
MSU-Mankato -- 36
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage
Michigan Tech -- 36
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage
Minnesota -- 37
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage, plus the Hall of Fame game is exempt
Minnesota-Duluth -- 38
!?! I'm guessing on this one... they played two at Alaska-Anchorage,
plus they played in the Maverick Stampede on 10/12 and 10/13, and I'm thinking
that was exempt also, since it was the same weekend as the Icebreaker
North Dakota -- 35
Played in the Hall of Fame game
St. Cloud -- 37
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage, and the Icebreaker is exempt, so hey, they
have an opening available...
Wisconsin -- 36
Two games at Alaska-Anchorage
