Is the Notre Dame game at the Palace a home game for LSSU or ND? Notre Dame
played in the first hockey game at the Palace against Michigan, the game
was scheduled as a home game for ND. Notre Dame wore the white sweaters and
all that. The crowd of course was rooting for Michigan. Maybe a LSSU-ND
game will have a better balance of fans.
