With the addition of Penn State and the announced forming of the Big Ten Hockey Conference in 2013-14, speculation on college hockey conference reshuffling has been on the minds of many.

Larry Mahoney of the Bangor Daily News has piece on the idea of Notre Dame joining Hockey East.

With the reshuffling of NCAA Division I college hockey prompted by the addition of Penn State and the Big Ten Conference in the 2013-2014 season, Hockey East could find itself adding one of the nation's most prominent institutions: Notre Dame.

"It's a possibility," acknowledged Notre Dame head coach Jeff Jackson. "I know our athletic director and associate athletic director are doing their due diligence in looking at all of the alternatives."

"I have a lot of respect for the programs and coaches in Hockey East," said Jackson, the former Lake Superior State head coach. "That has been one of the premier leagues in the country over the last 15 years."
