The Frozen Four Headed For Washington In 2009


Good hockey news is so rare these days (well, unless you make it up), that it was great to read this announcement:

Four, not three, bidding committees came away happy when the NCAA Ice Hockey Committee announced the awarding of Frozen Four bids.

Washington, D.C., Detroit, St. Paul and Tampa all came away happy, as they were awarded the Frozen Fours between 2009-2012.

The committee was supposed to award through 2011, but instead added a fourth site in 2012 due to the quality of the bids.

Sure, it's four years away, but it's still nice to have something to look forward to. Maybe the NHL will even be back by then?

Thanks to reader Chris Kelaher for the pointer.
