College hockey's big show in Las Vegas is finally booked.
Longtime rivals North Dakota and Minnesota will play the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game in Las Vegas in October 2018.
The Herald reported in November that the two schools had verbally agreed to play the game, but no contract had been signed as Minnesota transitioned to a new athletic director. Eight months later, that contract has now been finalized, the Herald has learned, and an official announcement is expected sometime in the next two weeks.
The single game is set for Orleans Arena, which is part of the Orleans Hotel and Casino. The 7,773-seat horseshoe venue previously served as home of the Las Vegas Wranglers of the East Coast Hockey League.
