Good deal

The Big Ten will officially announce some time this summer what is one of the worst kept secrets in college hockey, the Big Ten playoffs will return to campus after Notre Dame joins the Big Ten Hockey Conference for the 2017-18 season. This was basically confirmed by Wisconsin radio announcer Brian Posick Tuesday morning after the WCHA officially announced their intentions to do the same.

Agree.

Wise decision by the conference. Best-of-3 series' will be much more interesting and exciting than a neutral-site tournament in front of a bunch of fans disguised as empty seats.

Yeah it just makes the most sense now that the conference members are more spread out.
 

So it will probably be:
Opening Round - 1st round at campus sites
Thursday - Semi-Finals
Friday - Travel day
Saturday - Final
