TBN: All-American Prospects game returning to Buffalo 2014 and 2015

[jfb392]

Probably just another NTDP propaganda game.

Can't hurt to get yet another viewing of the NTDP kids that everyone passed over rather than first time eligibles from prep leagues and Minnesota HS.

Of 1812?

Your math is....suspect. :p

The war of 1812 actually went from 1812-1815....

 

[Woodhouse]

That would be great. They aren't getting another U20 any time soon.

Well, USA will host 2016 U18 and 2018 U20/WJC, but I think it's premature for either announcement. Another All-American Prospects Game fits best from my perspective.

Could be the U18s

Given how the Swiss haven't announced the host city for 2015, I agree that it's likely not to be a U18 announcement.

Another All-American Prospects game seems like the best bet.

 

[EichHart]

It's probably something like hosting the 2016 IIHF World U18 Championships.

This would be amazing!

They run a big multi-week camp in Rochester every season and the rink they do it at has been having financial problems. Maybe they're moving the hockey camps to the Harbor Center? Terry is bribing people to have US hockey HQ moved to Buffalo.

Bill Gray's has taken over the big rink at MCC and it's now the Bill Gray's Regional Iceplex aka BGRI.

I don't know if USA Hockey is going to stop coming here and instead go to HC. But, that wouldn't be a huge surprise since the complex have been poorly run from the get go.

It does appear to be a bit better since BG came on board, though...

Rochester folks and rink at MCC took a run at the NTDP in the past. The Pegula fortune and palatial HarborCenter could do the trick.

#Sabres and USA Hockey holding "significant" news conference in Buffalo Tuesday. Could NTDP be relocating from Ann Arbor? #HarborCenter

That would be epic. I'm expecting just the Prospects tourney again, but if NTDP relocated, I'd be speechless. I would be without speech.

Basically the organization is ensuring Jack Eichel plays in Buffalo.

 

[sjci]

I'm about 99% sure it's not a relocation. It's too far away from the rest of the USHL right now. Maybe when there's a couple more East teams in the USHL it'd be a possibility, but i think it's unlikely now

One problem.

Unless things change, Eichel will be playing for BU next season.

USHL expanding to WNY ????

And this is a problem how?

(the Terriers need all the help they can get... )

How does Eichel play in Buffalo if the NTDP moves here next year when Eichel is at BU?

 

[cybresabre]

Clearly they are moving BU to the Harbour Centre, then! Go Terriers!

They can even keep the BU acronym!

He doesn't, he plays for this suffering BU fan.

 

[EichHart]

There is a lot of hype for this announcement. I have high hopes. I hope I am not disappointed. Hopefully it is something huge! ^_^

 

[Beerz]

Has a time been set for the Press Conference?

I think you missed the post I was replying to....

U18 worlds IMO

No rep from harbor center attending would be a bit telling IMO
