FAIRBANKS — Western Collegiate Hockey Association commissioner Bruce McLeod was impressed with the community support for the Alaska Nanooks. He also had high regards for the Carlson Center, the Olympic-size ice arena of the Nanooks of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association.
However, McLeod’s visit on Tuesday to the University of Alaska Fairbanks and around Fairbanks was to get a sense of the Nanooks as a possible WCHA menber in 2013-14, when NCAA Division I hockey experiences realignment.
Current CCHA programs Michigan, Michigan State and Ohio State are joining WCHA schools Wisconsin and Minnesota and college hockey newcomer Penn State in the Big Ten Conference in 2013-14.

Image via WikipediaHere is as story from the Fairbanks Daily News Miner but it doesn't really say a lot other than Bruce McLeod visited the University of Alaska Fairbanks Campus, McLeod liked what he saw on his visit to the campus, yadda, yadda, yadda... It will be interesting to see where these talks lead.
