  20.  &lt;p id="3pBc7b"&gt;On Tuesday evening, Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/ConnorEaregood/status/1595267960356179968"&gt;released a statement&lt;/a&gt;, stating that senior forward Kamil Sadlocha is returning home and will not practice or compete with the team for an unspecified period of time after &lt;a href="https://www.sbncollegehockey.com/big-ten/2022/11/21/23472640/jagger-joshua-kamil-sadlocha-another-racist-incident-without-consequence-stains-college-hockey"&gt;Sadlocha directed racial slurs at Michigan State’s Jagger Joshua&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
  21. &lt;p id="a5bc4n"&gt;Here is Smith’s statement:&lt;/p&gt;
  22.  &lt;figure class="e-image"&gt;
  23.        &lt;img alt=" " data-mask-text="false" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/GRLbUjofrFiMyY6N9ejOufrlh6o=/400x0/filters:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/24222492/Screenshot_2022_11_23_8.39.01_AM.png"&gt;
  24.  &lt;/figure&gt;
  25. &lt;p id="Dol32s"&gt;Overall, a strong statement from Ohio State; much better than the hastily thrown together word salad on Monday night. Though it seems as if some of the timing here can be called into question. While Smith states this process has gone on “over the past week”, that does not explain why Sadlocha dressed and participated in both of Ohio State’s games last weekend—something that seemed to be the tipping point for Joshua to share publicly what happened. &lt;/p&gt;
  26. &lt;p id="PB9bZR"&gt;Ohio State’s approach to this has seemed much more reactive than proactive, but it at least says something that the public outcry about the incident was enough that they felt that they did have to react to it.&lt;/p&gt;

  46.  &lt;p id="dBGdaS"&gt;Michigan State senior Jagger Joshua posted a statement on Monday evening via his Twitter account that he had been the recipient of multiple racial slurs from a player in a November 11th game against Ohio State. &lt;/p&gt;
  47. &lt;div id="i4zB3o"&gt;
  48. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  49. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Acts of racism do not belong in hockey.. &lt;a href="https://t.co/nm9AnIjSgV"&gt;pic.twitter.com/nm9AnIjSgV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Jagger Joshua (@jaggerjoshua8) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/jaggerjoshua8/status/1594834809674731522?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 21, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  50. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  51. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  52. &lt;/div&gt;
  53. &lt;p id="p1Ym2z"&gt;Joshua also stated that an official heard what was said and the player was given a game misconduct penalty. The Ohio State player was not named by Joshua, but &lt;a href="https://www.collegehockeynews.com/box/final/20221111/osu/msu/"&gt;here is the box score&lt;/a&gt; from that game.&lt;/p&gt;
  54. &lt;p id="OG4bWf"&gt;Ohio State released the following statement on Monday evening:&lt;/p&gt;
  55. &lt;div id="EyD565"&gt;
  56. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  57. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Emailed &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/OhioStateMHKY?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@OhioStateMHKY&lt;/a&gt; for a statement regarding Jagger Joshua’s Twitter post. Here’s their response: &lt;a href="https://t.co/ENTGAUWYl2"&gt;pic.twitter.com/ENTGAUWYl2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Connor Earegood (@ConnorEaregood) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/ConnorEaregood/status/1594884082978127873?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 22, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  58. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  59. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  60. &lt;/div&gt;
  61. &lt;p id="LOykS0"&gt;Whatever “resolution” they claim was reached, it did not seem to involve a suspension for the player involved, as he played in both of Ohio State’s games last weekend, nor, most importantly, did their so-called resolution seem to involve the victim in the incident, as Joshua clearly seems far from satisfied with the response from Ohio State and the Big Ten.&lt;/p&gt;
  62. &lt;p id="mtkWrw"&gt;The Big Ten also released a statement on Monday evening stating that they took no further action due to a lack of “indisputable evidence”.&lt;/p&gt;
  63. &lt;div id="d6iwYp"&gt;
  64. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  65. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;The Big Ten now has a statement out on why there was no further punishment for Ohio State's Kamil Sadlocha beyond a game misconduct for alleged racial targeting of Michigan State's Jagger Joshua. &lt;a href="https://t.co/zIlKNHHO6I"&gt;pic.twitter.com/zIlKNHHO6I&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Todd Milewski (@ToddMilewski) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/ToddMilewski/status/1594894692407181314?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 22, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  66. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  67. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  68. &lt;/div&gt;
  69. &lt;p id="aObexR"&gt;The incident, and the complete lack of accountability and consequences to come from it, is sadly, not unfamiliar to the world of men’s college hockey. In 2019, Hockey East &lt;a href="https://www.bcinterruption.com/2019/3/20/18274879/boston-college-mens-hockey-player-alleged-to-have-made-racist-remark-during-bc-providence-series"&gt;confirmed that a player from Boston College directed a racial slur at Providence forward Vimal Sukumaran&lt;/a&gt;, but chose to take no action because they could not determine the source of the slur.&lt;/p&gt;
  70. &lt;p id="nIjkjn"&gt;It hopefully goes without saying that slurs directed at Joshua are completely unacceptable, and should have no place in hockey. But once again, the truly disappointing part of this the action, or lack thereof by those in positions of leadership. Their choices for who deserves protection and who doesn’t speak volumes louder than whatever empty buzzwords they can regurgitate into a press statement. &lt;/p&gt;

  82.    <title>The Crazy Improbably Play That Happened Twice in One Night</title>
  83.    <content type="html">  
  84.  
  85.    &lt;figure&gt;
  86.      &lt;img alt="puck (Matt Christians)" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/l-Q-bTPTj8oOkNHwjGIezola7zs=/11x0:893x588/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/71650276/Screenshot_2014-03-07_at_4.49.57_PM.0.png" /&gt;

  88.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  89.  
  90.  &lt;p id="6aAkqo"&gt;Goofy stuff happens in hockey games. Usually once or twice in a season, an unfortunate team will end up giving up a goal while possessing the puck during a delayed penalty, either thanks to a bad bounce or errant pass will find its’ way into a vacated goal.&lt;/p&gt;
  91. &lt;p id="cOnY7D"&gt;That happened twice on Friday evening. But that’s not the strangest part. Adding to the already astronomical improbability is that in both instances, the player credited for the goal was the player that the delayed penalty had been called for.&lt;/p&gt;
  92. &lt;p id="hC1RG3"&gt;In Kalamazoo last night, Western Michigan’s Cam Knuble was found guilty of a holding infraction. During the delayed penalty, Minnesota Duluth got possession of the puck behind their own net. They tried to force a pass up the middle that hit off the back of their own goalie and into the net. &lt;/p&gt;
  93. &lt;p id="i3bwT6"&gt;Here’s the play:&lt;/p&gt;
  94. &lt;div id="0MPRzB"&gt;
  95. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  96. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;This UMD Bulldogs own goal on a delayed penalty is something I’ve NEVER seen before in my life.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Still cannot believe that it happened. &lt;a href="https://t.co/ycDrkvyBIq"&gt;pic.twitter.com/ycDrkvyBIq&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Max Veech (@venividiveech) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/venividiveech/status/1593773039380041732?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 19, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  97. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  98. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  99. &lt;/div&gt;
  100. &lt;p id="rCQcWr"&gt;I especially enjoy the official pulling Knuble out of the celebration handshake to take him to the box.&lt;/p&gt;
  101. &lt;p id="gsrzjl"&gt;If that was something you’d never seen before, you’d only have to wait a few hours to see it again. Later that evening in Madison, Lindenwood forward Joe Prouty committed a slashing infraction. Wisconsin pulled their goalie during the delayed penalty, and trying to establish an attack, attempted to make a regroup pass back to their own defenseman. But the pass was errant and it ended up sliding into the vacant net.&lt;/p&gt;
  102. &lt;p id="22LgEt"&gt;Here’s the play: &lt;/p&gt;
  103. &lt;div id="gxYIa3"&gt;
  104. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  105. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Here's that &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Badgers?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#Badgers&lt;/a&gt; own goal from earlier. The casual skate lift from the referee is wonderful. &lt;a href="https://t.co/lXmEbGci8F"&gt;pic.twitter.com/lXmEbGci8F&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Todd Milewski (@ToddMilewski) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/ToddMilewski/status/1593800315803176960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 19, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  106. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  107. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  108. &lt;/div&gt;
  109. &lt;p id="X1cHtY"&gt;As the last Lindenwood player to touch the puck, Prouty was given credit for the empty-net goal. The goal put Lindenwood ahead in the third period, but the Badgers mercifully rallied for a 4-3 victory, so the error wasn’t fatal. &lt;/p&gt;
  110. &lt;p id="qyqPly"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  128.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  129.  
  130.  &lt;p id="v4Ccco"&gt;The Big Ten has announced a one-game suspension for Minnesota’s Logan Cooley stemming from a hit in &lt;a href="https://www.sbncollegehockey.com/big-ten/2022/11/18/23466105/minnesota-defeats-depleted-michigan-squad-for-5-2-win"&gt;last night’s 5-2 Minnesota victory over Michigan&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/p&gt;
  131. &lt;p id="8EUfNH"&gt;Cooley was assessed a five-minute major for cross-checking at 6:35 of the second period last night for a hit on Michigan’s Eric Ciccolini. Cooley was initially escorted off the ice, but after video review, Cooley was brought back and just given a five-minute major penalty with no misconduct attached. &lt;/p&gt;
  132. &lt;p id="mxfVCA"&gt;Here is the hit in question:&lt;/p&gt;
  133. &lt;div id="Pjrw3b"&gt;
  134. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  135. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;Here's the Logan Cooley hit that earned him a suspension for tonight's game since I missed it last night &lt;a href="https://t.co/AZFwVpLSHl"&gt;pic.twitter.com/AZFwVpLSHl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— CJ Fogler AKA Perc70 #BlackLivesMatter (@cjzero) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/cjzero/status/1593708017773576193?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;November 18, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  136. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  137. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  138. &lt;/div&gt;
  139. &lt;p id="XUxtKh"&gt;Michigan interim head coach Brandon Naurato expressed frustration with the call after the game, saying he thought it should have been a game disqualification. Cooley would go on to score a 5x3 power play goal in the third period that extended Minnesota’s lead to 4-2 and helped put the game out of reach.&lt;/p&gt;
  140. &lt;p id="6cR7x5"&gt;Ciccolini headed to the locker room after the hit, but did eventually return to last night’s game.&lt;/p&gt;
  141. &lt;p id="17kN9x"&gt;After further review, the Big Ten decided to suspend Cooley for Friday night’s contest against Michigan. &lt;/p&gt;

  159.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  160.  
  161.  &lt;p id="raVTLE"&gt;The battle between #2 Minnesota and #3 Michigan was expected to be one of the marquee match-ups of the Big Ten season between two of the conferences preseason favorites, but illness running through both teams cast a pall over the series. Minnesota was without starting goalie Justin Close and forward Aaron Huglen, who did not travel to Ann Arbor due to illness, but that was nothing compared to Michigan, who was without six players, including the nation’s leading scorer Adam Fantilli, and defenseman Steven Holtz, &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/JessRMyers/status/1593257608307429378"&gt;who was reportedly hospitalized due to illness&lt;/a&gt;. Every available Wolverine dressed in Thursday night’s game, including third string goalie Tyler Shea, who dressed as a skater and was listed as a forward on the team’s line chart.&lt;/p&gt;
  162. &lt;p id="N7afCq"&gt;The shorthanded Michigan team put up a fight for nearly two periods, but ultimately ran out of gas, falling 5-2 to Minnesota.&lt;/p&gt;
  163. &lt;p id="yEl732"&gt;The Golden Gophers struck first when Rhett Pitlick put a perfectly-placed shot into the upper corner of the net from the left circle to give Minnesota the early lead. But Michigan responded on the power play late in the first period when Dylan Duke jammed home a puck in front of the net. &lt;/p&gt;
  164. &lt;p id="0a6KjN"&gt;The second period would follow a similar pattern with Pitlick scoring first to put the Gophers ahead and Dylan Duke responding afterwards with a power play goal. Jimmy Snuggerud would score his ninth goal of the season 1:20 after Duke scored to give Minnesota the lead after two periods.&lt;/p&gt;
  165. &lt;p id="MxcmoW"&gt;All hopes of a Michigan third period comeback vanished when the Wolverines were given a protocol penalty for not taking the ice in time for the third period. The resulting penalty gave Minnesota a 5x3 advantage, which Logan Cooley converted on. Luke Mittlestadt tacked on another insurance goal and the thin Michigan bench didn’t really have the gas in the tank to mount a serious comeback.&lt;/p&gt;
  166. &lt;p id="bwftBF"&gt;The two teams complete their series on Friday evening.&lt;/p&gt;
  167. &lt;p id="F1Kc3h"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Notes and Thoughts:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  168. &lt;p id="OKbcMf"&gt;-I guess credit/blame the specter of Mel Pearson, because this had the feel of a game that probably shouldn’t have been played last night, and probably wouldn’t have been if Michigan hadn’t been the subject of a scandal last season where they cancelled a game in which they would have had a full line-up.&lt;/p&gt;
  169. &lt;p id="wCaKXf"&gt;(For the record, I don’t buy the argument that because it was a conference game, the sanctity of the standings were what caused this game to be played, especially &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/ChrisDilks/status/1496866036221632512"&gt;in this conference&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;/p&gt;
  170. &lt;p id="4q98Ca"&gt;There’s not too much Michigan interim head coach Brandon Naurato can say due to medical privacy issues, but you can certainly read between the lines &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/michigan/Article/Michigan-hockey-Brandon-Naurato-press-conference-Steven-Holtz-Fantilli-Hughes-sickness-adenovirus-197866371/"&gt;in his post-game press conference&lt;/a&gt; last night about the situation they were dealing with: &lt;/p&gt;
  171. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  172. &lt;p id="lpZkhX"&gt;NAURATO: I’ll say one thing: Brian Brewster, Darryl Conway. The Michigan medical team, Michigan Hospital. I can’t imagine if this was a junior or minor pro team without the resources that we have at Michigan. That’s why they’re the leaders and best. Everyone’s pulled together and done an unbelievable job to take care of these kids. That’s not a plug. It’s real. They saved some guys. It’s a big deal.&lt;/p&gt;
  173. &lt;p id="f5qJfl"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;On if he was scared for his players: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  174. &lt;p id="kzE6r9"&gt;NAURATO: Yeah, big time. Yeah. Without getting into detail, the first phone call I got, I hope I never get again. &lt;/p&gt;
  175. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  176. &lt;p id="yrlaqr"&gt;By all indications, it would not be a surprise if Naurato had his interim tag lifted at the end of this season.&lt;/p&gt;
  177. &lt;p id="A5EZbd"&gt;-Minnesota took care of business on a night that was pretty much a must-win given the circumstances. They’ve got some guys that can really fire the puck, especially when given a little time and space, which the Michigan defense tends to allow, even under the best of circumstances.&lt;/p&gt;
  178. &lt;p id="zWwNxO"&gt;It was also a good opportunity to get back-up Owen Bartoszkiewicz into net a start after two very shaky starts early in the season in which he gave up four goals in each game. Back in his home state, Bartoszkiewicz put up very solid numbers, stopping 29 or 31 and only allowing two power play goals on second-chance opportunities. He likely still has a long ways to go towards proving he’s capable of being a starter one day, but that was at least the first step.&lt;/p&gt;

  197.  
  198.  &lt;p id="6fKe1t"&gt;After a shaky start to the Greg Brown Era for Boston College that included a loss to Holy Cross and a sweep at the hands of Merrimack, the Eagles continued to show steady improvement on Tuesday night, following up a four-point weekend against Northeastern last weekend with a victory over a ranked opponent, defeating UMass Lowell 3-2 at Conte Forum.&lt;/p&gt;
  199. &lt;p id="LL9EoU"&gt;With the team’s leading scorer, junior Trevor Kuntar out of the line-up serving a one-game suspension for an incident that occurred at the end of BC’s Saturday night win, it was the Eagles’ youngsters that stepped up.&lt;/p&gt;
  200. &lt;p id="6MMLlA"&gt;Star freshman forward Cutter Gauthier got the scoring started at 6:21 of the first period when he came down the left wing and wired a wrist shot past Lowell goalie Henry Welsch. The Eagles extended their lead late in the first period when sophomore Connor Joyce scored his first career goal by jamming home a rebound of a Mike Posma shot.&lt;/p&gt;
  201. &lt;p id="QDEKOR"&gt;The River Hawks responded quickly in the second period, however, with a goal by Owen Cole 1:08 into the period. With momentum on their side, Lowell would tie the game at 12:50 of the second period on a goal by Zach Kaiser.&lt;/p&gt;
  202. &lt;p id="vb09JB"&gt;That set up a decisive third period, and it was BC that was able to make the extra play. On a power play early in the third period, freshman Oskar Jellvik picked up a loose puck near the left point and made a quick spin move to break free from a Lowell defender. Jellvik came down the left wing and in a play similar to Gauthier’s first period goal, Jellvik fired a low, hard wrist shot to the far side of the net that beat Welsch to give Boston College the lead.&lt;/p&gt;
  203. &lt;p id="UR8njJ"&gt;Lowell’s offense was never able to mount a serious threat to tie the game and Boston College was able to ride Jellvik’s goal to a 3-2 victory.&lt;/p&gt;
  204. &lt;p id="xEkw6l"&gt;The victory moves Boston College to 4-4-2 on the season, but heading in the right direction after a difficult start to the season. It also temporarily moves them into a tie with Lowell for fifth place in Hockey East, though both Lowell and seventh-place Boston University lead BC in terms of winning percentage. UMass Lowell, who came into the game having won five of their last six and ranked 14th in the nation, now falls to 7-4-0 on the season.&lt;/p&gt;
  205. &lt;p id="9aDYFD"&gt;Game Notes&lt;/p&gt;
  206. &lt;p id="QwhJF0"&gt;-This game looked like it might have been over early after Boston College took a quick lead on Gauthier’s goal and came out of the first period up 2-0. Credit UMass Lowell for showing some impressive push back to get a quick goal back in the second period and then eventually tie it up. &lt;/p&gt;
  207. &lt;p id="9C0y5k"&gt;The River Hawks actually had a chance to take the lead late in the second period with about three minutes left when they got a loose puck to the net front that just rolled through an open crease rather than finding a way across the line. If UMass Lowell goes up 3-2 heading into the third period, it’s potentially a very different hockey game.&lt;/p&gt;
  208. &lt;p id="FKNgjT"&gt;-Lowell came into tonight’s game ranked 7th in the still-very-early Pairwise Rankings—the loss dropped them to 11th—on the back of a strong road split at....*checks notes*...*twice*....Michigan State.&lt;/p&gt;
  209. &lt;p id="X6XiRs"&gt;This was my second time watching UMass Lowell this season and it’s basically the same Lowell we’ve all known and loved in the Norm Bazin. Not very exciting offensively, but an incredibly honest and disciplined hockey team that is going to make the opposition work really hard for whatever they get.&lt;/p&gt;
  210. &lt;p id="rNYutZ"&gt;That said, I do wonder if there is a ceiling to the way Lowell plays, and if that ceiling is starting to shrink. In 2016-2017, the River Hawks swept the Hockey East regular season and playoff titles and appeared in their fifth NCAA Tournament in six seasons under Norm Bazin. But since that point, the River Hawks have only made one NCAA Tournament, and that came last year, which was an absolutely dreadful year for Hockey East.(They were also 11th in the PWR in 2020 when the season got shut down, so likely but not firmly in)&lt;/p&gt;
  211. &lt;p id="j1xRpE"&gt;They set a pretty high baseline for basic competence defensively, but it seems more teams are able to meet that level more consistently. The skill development revolution is starting to hit college hockey and it’s getting harder for teams to park the bus in front of their own net for 60 minutes and grind out low-scoring victories.&lt;/p&gt;
  212. &lt;p id="7jlJLG"&gt;-Boston Bruins 2021 fifth round pick Oskar Jellvik got his first career goal tonight on the game-winner, but already had six assists on the season, meaning he’s now up to seven points through his first nine collegiate games. That’s a pretty solid start for a freshman in his  Draft+2 year. I really like Jellvik’s ability to think one-step ahead and anticipate offensive plays. He showed that on the goal, setting up his defender for a wicked spin move that created a quality chance for him. Definitely a player to keep an eye on in the future, because he looks like a nice value for a fifth round pick.&lt;/p&gt;

  229.      &lt;img alt="" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/bSRLa8N_slLl-VHDIPUKy1ObTyE=/0x39:904x642/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/71631119/Screenshot_2022_11_14_12.33.38_PM.0.png" /&gt;
  230.        &lt;figcaption&gt;Sacred Heart Athletics&lt;/figcaption&gt;
  231.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  232.  
  233.  &lt;p id="E8h1ey"&gt;It was an important day for the Sacred Heart men’s and women’s hockey programs yesterday as work crews began putting in ice on the brand new Martire Family Arena, which is set to open up in two months.&lt;/p&gt;
  234. &lt;p id="HhABzU"&gt;The new 4000-seat on-campus arena will be a major upgrade for both Pioneers programs. The men currently play at Total Mortgage Arena, one of the doddering cavernous tombs that the NCAA keeps selecting for NCAA regionals, eight miles off campus, while the women have been playing 10 miles off campus at Sports Center of Connecticut. &lt;/p&gt;
  235. &lt;p id="YM1KBZ"&gt;The lead donor on the $75M project was Sacred Heart alum Frank Martire and his wife Marisa. Martire also owns an equity interest in the NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights.&lt;/p&gt;
  236. &lt;p id="DHg5WM"&gt;The most unique feature of the new arena is the floor-to-ceiling smart glass that wraps around three sides of the arena, allowing natural light into the arena without affecting ice conditions. Other unique amenities for fans include a giant pizza oven on the main concourse concession stand as well as craft beer options on the club level from the school’s Brewing Science Certification Program.&lt;/p&gt;
  237. &lt;p id="XW8x6E"&gt;But the most important changes will come for the programs themselves. The new arena will have all the modern amenities college programs need to compete in the modern day facilities arms race: new locker rooms, weight rooms, meeting rooms for recruiting visits, and suites to woo potential donors.&lt;/p&gt;
  238. &lt;p id="sgELLF"&gt;The Pioneers have been perpetual also-rans at the Division I level of hockey. Neither the men nor the women have ever made an NCAA Tournament, and the men have just one winning season in the past decade. But with a new facility as nice as nearly any arena in college hockey, it shows a serious commitment on their part to become a more competitive program.&lt;/p&gt;
  239. &lt;p id="ko7KHO"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  258.  &lt;p id="Kr3I14"&gt;USA Hockey &lt;a href="https://teamusa.usahockey.com/news_article/show/1247457"&gt;has announced the roster&lt;/a&gt; for the 2023 IIHF Women’s World U18 Championship, which will take place January 8-15 in Ostersund, Sweden.&lt;/p&gt;
  259. &lt;p id="p9j5KD"&gt;It’s a short turnaround from the 2022 tournament, which took place this past June in Madison, Wisconsin after being rescheduled due to Covid, giving the US a quick opportunity to avenge their loss to Canada in that tournament’s gold medal game.&lt;/p&gt;
  260. &lt;p id="iQsOHC"&gt;Six skaters along with goalie Annelies Bergmann return from the 2022 roster for the United States. Holy Cross head coach Katie Lachapelle also returns as head coach of the team. &lt;/p&gt;
  261. &lt;p id="rWh1k2"&gt;In the 14-year history of the tournament, the United States leads with eight gold medals to six for Canada, but retaking gold will be a difficult task for the Americans this year. The Canadians swept the US rather convincingly, winning all three games of their U18 Summer Series showcase event this past August.&lt;/p&gt;
