As before, Bowling Green and Notre Dame are listed under the CCHA banner because they haven't yet announced where they're headed. The WCHA's deadline for Bowling Green to act on an invitation was set to come up this week, but now it appears that has been extended to Oct. 7, according to Kevin Gordon of the Bowling Green Sentinel-Tribune.

And as for Notre Dame, you have to think that the tumult in the Big East Conference, in which the Irish are members for many sports, could further push back a decision from South Bend. Every time there's a conference change, the Notre Dame-to-the-Big Ten machine gets going again, and this week has been no different.

Hockey East for the Fighting Irish.

This leaves HE with an odd number of teams.  The link speculates that UConn is a natural, but I've got a hunch perhaps Bowling Green goes there as another midwest team.  Does HE travel with partners, or do they play two matches / home and home over the weekend?
