I was thinking of which side of the Final Five issue I come down on, when
it dawned on me, if the WCHA wants to make the most money, why don't they
play the semis on Saturday and the finals on Sunday?
Since that won't happen this year, I think they should leave the game as it
is. The team that finished number 1 earned the right to play at night.
That may not matter much in terms of exhaustion from the previous game
since they have a bye, but it does mean that their fans get more time to
travel to the game. I am assuming that UND will be #1 out there, so that
gives their people more time to get to St. Paul. I don't know the
distances but I guess they can go on Friday now instead of the night before
like they may have to if the game is on Friday afternoon. And it would
really suck for them if they planned on Friday night, and the game were
changed to the afternoon.
Are the tickets sold by game or to the whole event? Maybe they should sell
the tickets to the whole event and then eliminate the issue of who plays
when.
