Bummer that it relocated so far from campus. I usually went to a couple games during the season.
Is there a reason they aren't playing at Blazers Ice Center anymore?
I don't know the whole story but it has to do with the team moving here from Wichita Falls. I think they are still practicing at the Blazers Ice Center.
I haven't looked at UCO's schedule but I'm guessing the two teams will be sharing the ice with one playing afternoon games and one playing evening.
UCO has a much larger fan base and parking for the OU/UCO games was almost as much of a battle as the game. So even though Arctic Edge has 2 rinks I don't think they could have both teams playing there at the same time.
Even better, it's three teams sharing as Oklahoma State started up a club team last season as well. OSU went into the ACHA Division II, playing in the Texas Collegiate Hockey Conference this season, while OU and UCO are still ACHA Division I. Like you mentioned, lots of afternoon/evening splits on shared nights.
We also get our first instances of OSU/OU Bedlam at Arctic on Nov 4th, and the BOK Center in Tulsa on Nov 5th.
They (OSU) have ice making equipment underneath the floor at Gallagher-Iba Arenal.
