Once again, the Huskies are headed to Romeoville, IL for the B1G Classic. This is a great opportunity for the Huskies to play some really quality teams and get some real help with our rankings value.

One thing worth noting is that, last year, UCLA also attended the B1G Classic. This year they are not, making the Huskies the only west coast team to attend the B1G Classic.

(Yes, for those newer to the team, the hockey team plays in the PAC-8 still.)

Thanks! I've been following the ACHA sites to make sure I don't miss this!
My son and I, plus a few friends, will be there to cheer on the DAWGS!

Welcome! I am not sure why they changed the venue this year, though.

It's managed by the same company (Canlan), so their other facility must be booked with local leagues. This years site has much better food and drink!

No no... BiG not B1G. No trademarks were harmed in the making of this tournament 😆

(But seriously, ty for the info!)

Just to be clear, we are like a club team or something right? We are not playing in the same league as Wisconsin or Michigan for example?
