The women will be playing at Dane County as part of the school's buyout of their
contract for men's hockey. Money-wise, UW will probably hard pressed to
generate any more revenue from men's hockey for the next six years (I believe is
what was left on the contract) but, at worst, they break even for that length of
time and are playing on campus. The buyout deal is kind of screwy but, even at
the Dane, the women will have great training and lockerroom facilities.
