Minnesota Gophers Joining Big Ten Conference
Mariucci Arena, get ready. Get ready for the Wisconsin Badgers, Michigan Wolverines, Michigan State Spartans, Penn State Nittany Lions, and the Ohio State Buckeyes. The Minnesota Gophers are joining in the brand new Big Ten Hockey Conference in 2013-2014. The Minnesota Gophers have played in the WCHA for a number of years against North Dakota, Duluth, Mankato, St. Cloud, Denver, Colorado College, and so on. It is definitely a change but one that should draw big crowds from these major schools. Look forward to Big Ten hockey at Mariucci Arena!
