  1. Neb. Commission on Industrial Relations announced it has decided upon the AAUP union offer for the UNO salary dispute: http://bit.ly/YblVG
  2. Teleconference is over now. Sorry to any of you out there in the Twitterverse not interested in hockey who were spammed with these Tweets.
  3. McLeod: "We were intent on exploring all possibilities with Omaha before moving on to plan B, but we never got there."
  4. McLeod: Conference has lot of intelligent fans. Postseason tournament always has a very excited, collegiate atmosphere. #WCHA
  5. CORRECTION: Alberts said "best decision, long term, for our university was to be the WCHA" not the CCHA. Apologize for any confusion. #WCHA
  6. Alberts: Western Collegiate Hockey Association is uniquely positioned for the future to be the dominant hockey conference. #WCHA
  7. UNO wanted to move quickly to change conference because it wouldn't have been fair to CCHA to drag out the process, Alberts said. #WCHA
  8. McLeod: League has about five different scheduling models it is considering. None include divisions, and number of league games vary #WCHA
  9. Vote on expansion was nine in favor with one abstention, which noted concerns with the process not a problem with admitting UNO. #WCHA
  10. Blais doesn't think playing on Olympic-sized ice, as UNO will encounter in the WCHA, really matters all that much. #WCHA
  11. Anastos: "We are disappointed to hear of UNO's decision [...] as they have been a very good member of our league, and we wish them well."
  12. CCHA Commissioner Tom Anastos issued a statement on UNO's change in affiliation: http://tinyurl.com/r3ralu #WCHA
  13. Scheduling for 2010-11 will not be an easy task, but league had been anticipating expansion so has been working on different models. #WCHA
  14. Conference views UNO as being a quality, competitive program. Attitude seems to be that Mavs are committed to the hockey program. #WCHA
  15. Coach Blais: Alberts, Kemp had a good idea of where they were heading. They didn't really ask for his opinion on league affiliation. #WCHA
  16. Bemidji State Coach Serratore: Expansion was good move for the league and, ultimately, the right thing to do.
  17. Alberts: Decision was difficult. "Regional rivalries are really important to me." Wants fans to go to more away games to support Mavs. #WCHA
  18. McLeod is repeating that he doesn't want to talk specific about terms for expansion, including entry fees and postseason revenue. #WCHA
  19. McLeod: Conference is leaning towards including all schools in playoffs, "something along those lines" - a 'Final 6' maybe? #WCHA
  20. Commissioner McLeod: "We're still working on the 12-team scheduling model that we want to use." No decision is made yet. #WCHA
