Hoorah! Not for the tournament, but if this Big 10 thingy happens,
then that means the WCHA does not have a 32-game league schedule any more.
32 + 2 (Mariucci/Badger) + 2 (Big 10) > 34
Minnesota and Wisconsin both have home tournaments they won't give up,
so the fact that this tourney is being planned is a good sign. But then
perhaps The Palace people are clueless and do not realize this....
