This past season reinforced the two different ways of looking at ECAC Hockey.<\/p>\n

In a positive sense, its top team won the national championship as part of a four-bid postseason in the NCAA tournament, and ECAC matched a more heralded conference when it equaled the Big Ten with a quarter of the national tournament\u2019s teams.<\/p>\n

Cornell\u2019s shutout win over Denver dethroned the defending national champion, and Quinnipiac\u2019s run to its first title included wins over Ohio State, Michigan and Minnesota, the latter of which were considered star-crossed for a national final rematch.<\/p>\n

Defanging the Big Ten produced the league\u2019s third national championship and eradicated any lingering memories of the derisive comments referencing curses, voodoo, hexes or droughts wrought by Harvard\u2019s 1989 championship, but the drama came at a negative cost to the conference\u2019s bottom tier.<\/p>\n

Three teams occupied slots among the 10 worst teams in the annual Pairwise Rankings. Three more were within shouting distance, and a whopping 16 spots separated Cornell from Colgate, the fourth team into the tournament and conference tournament champion.<\/p>\n

Few seasons matched the success of watching ECAC\u2019s men\u2019s league ascend to hallowed ground, but few seasons equally complemented wins with the frustration experienced by onlookers who saw a 12-team conference place so many teams in the bottom tier. It was, in some ways, the capstone on retiring commissioner Steve Hagwell\u2019s career, even as windows into future needs opened.<\/p>\n

That type of duality has long been woven in the conference\u2019s genetic code, and its announcement on Tuesday that Doug Christiansen would become its next shepherd signaled exactly how the league would commit to keeping things the same while changing for the better.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the league,\u201d Christiansen said during his virtual introductory press conference Tuesday. \u201cI\u2019m passionate about the league. I think it\u2019s second to none in terms of the priority and opportunities that it provides for both men and women. You look at those [member] institutions, both academically and athletically, and they\u2019re outstanding. I really enjoyed the opportunity that I had with the USHL. It\u2019s a phenomenal league, and I learned a ton. And when this opportunity came up and presented itself, it was something that I pursued and wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n

The hire itself reads like a no-brainer decision for the ECAC\u2019s member institutions. Christiansen played and graduated from Union during the Kevin Sneddon era, but his understanding of college hockey\u2019s evolution extended to every phase and level embedded throughout the sport\u2019s landscape.<\/p>\n

His playing career involved years spent traveling throughout the ECHL before spending one season with the infamous Danbury Trashers in the independent United Hockey League, and after cycling through several AHL teams, Christiansen finished his domestic career by playing 99 career games with the Reading Royals. Three years later, he finished his career overseas with the Elite Ice Hockey League\u2019s Edinburg Capitals and transitioned to coaching, and he eventually landed back on North American shores as the head coach of the Indy Fuel, experience he augmented when the USHL made the Wisconsin native its deputy commissioner last season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought I was going to be a lawyer,\u201d he laughed, \u201cbut to me, the one constant in my life has been with hockey. It had been a part of every part of my life, dating back to being a young boy, all the way through high school and college. It\u2019s been at every single spot along my journey.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe other piece that\u2019s been massive has been the education and the opportunities that I had away from home. I think this is consistent with that [idea]. It\u2019s something that I look back at my time at Union, so I\u2019m cautiously optimistic that I can try to help make sure that student-athletes who are there now or coming in the future have a similar experience to what I had, and then hopefully, they come back, whether that\u2019s as a donor or a fan or somebody who just watches from afar. I want student-athletes to have that connection to all of our schools as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Understanding those ideals are a reason why Christiansen can continue several of the league\u2019s growth initiatives since he left the Capital District at the start of the century. ECAC spent the last 25 years on the cutting edge of the streaming revolution before it leveraged its Ivy League affiliates\u2019 move from the Ivy League Digital Network to the burgeoning ESPN+ platform, and after moving its conference championship to Albany, N.Y., for eight years before three ill-fated seasons in Atlantic City, the Whitelaw Cup\u2019s final rounds returned to Lake Placid in 2014.<\/p>\n

Those successes helped the league mine its talent base, and the women\u2019s league produced Olympic medalists opposite the Stanley Cup champions of the men\u2019s league. The first league to ever boast a full complement of membership among both genders claimed the first NCAA Women\u2019s Frozen Four championship for an eastern-based team, and in 2018, the first-ever all-eastern championship game featured Clarkson and Colgate after the Raiders beat second-ranked Wisconsin in double-overtime. Four of this past year\u2019s 11 teams in the women\u2019s tournament also called ECAC home.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard to build on a national champion,\u201d Christiansen explained. \u201cHaving four women\u2019s teams and four men\u2019s teams make the NCAA Tournament is a hard thing to build upon, but it\u2019s obviously something we want to make sure we continue to work towards and to make that a consistent thing.<\/p>\n

Yet there\u2019s an understanding that things aren\u2019t always rosy, and an era defined by realignment, the transfer portal, and the emerging business side of Name, Image, and Likeness puts ECAC in a precarious position. The conference carries more freight than its seven-team or eight-team counterparts, and while it\u2019s nearly impossible to place all of those teams atop college hockey\u2019s annual analytics, being able to further establish or reinforce foundations for both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s league is paramount for teams seeking to reach the next level.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe coaches [in women\u2019s hockey] have done a phenomenal job of attracting the elite, Canadian players,\u201d Christiansen said, \u201cbut I think we can do an even better job of attracting some of the best American players. The highest concentration of women\u2019s college hockey players is in the state of Minnesota, and unlike the East Coast, there aren\u2019t an abundance of programs there.<\/p>\n

“On the academic index, where the schools are, what the grade requirements are, hopefully that helps coaches get a foothold and attract women to the ECAC, and the opportunities that academically are available to both men and women is a great selling point. It won me over [as a recruit].\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s on the backdrop of a more free-wheeling sports world, and not even a national champion can quiet the rumor mill regarding expansion or break-ups. It doesn\u2019t seem to matter to the hot stove that Hagwell embraced the 12-team model and solidified it during the radical realignment of the 2010s, and while Christiansen affirmed the league\u2019s overall body by openly saying the league will stay at its dozen members, questions remain about how those members will operate in a world increasingly defined by dollars and the business terms.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn terms of my vision, I think branding and recognition [can improve], whether it\u2019s revenue or really trying to sell and celebrate the players and student-athletes,\u201d Christiansen said. \u201cThe second piece is that this is an interesting time with [NIL]. You look at the member institutions of our school or in our conference, there are a lot of different types of schools. But there\u2019s one common piece: they all have passionate fan bases. I think it\u2019s going to be incumbent upon the league to help the coaches and administrators navigate that in this time.<\/p>\n

“Because at the end of the day, you look at the schools and some of the endowments, some of the alumni, and it could be very, very impactful for both men and women in the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hagwell\u2019s tenure created ECAC as it appears in the current era. It built a championship league and navigated churning, murky waters after the downturn of the 2000s signaled warning signs. He shepherded a league into which Christiansen arrived, and the players of his era transitioned the conference into an ultra-talented group capable of winning national titles.<\/p>\n

The next step turns its attention to how that league converts its academic reputation into consistent capital during an equally muddy era. College hockey is entering arguably its most popular era, and the future is stronger than ever before. This hire, at least on paper and at first glance, more than completes that circle while starting it anew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
