April 8, 200521 yr The NCAA Hockey tournament, that is. The Office Depot Center has put in a bid to host the Frozen Four :thumbup . MIAMI -- The Office Depot Center, home of the NHL's Florida Panthers, submitted a bid Thursday to host the NCAA's Frozen Four, an attempt to bring college hockey's premiere championship event to Florida. The bid is aimed at either the 2009, 2010 or 2011 Frozen Four. Michael Yormark is chief operating officer of the arena. He said early April is the perfect time for college hockey fans to migrate to South Florida to follow their teams. The bid is not a complete longshot. The 1999 Frozen Four was held in Anaheim, Calif., though no other hockey final has ever been held outside the snow belt. http://www.local10.com/news/4358688/detail.html
April 8, 200521 yr That would bee too awesome! I've sent a number of notes to the ODC asking why they have not applied for this tourney....I think Anaheim hosted a few years back...I would attend every game.
April 9, 200521 yr Damn, I was hoping it'd be basketball. It would've been sweet at the New Marlins park.
