Frozen Four in Canada?

~
The marquee NCAA event has criss-crossed the United States, it's been held in hockey mad markets, football stadiums, cities without Division 1 college programs and in places where the only ice you find is in your drink. Most of the time the Frozen Four has been successful but other times it has not and in some of those cases, it's a bit surprising.

But considering all of the creative ways the NCAA has come up with the celebrate the championship weekend of the sport, it's never left the country. Is it plausible to think that one day, the Frozen Four might be held in Canada?

To me, the answer is YES.

NCAA Canadian Invasion Underway

~
Above is a picture of the CN Tower. If you're taking in Toronto and checking off your list of "Touristy things to See and Do", it's probably near the top of it. A Leafs game at the ACC? of course. The Hockey Hall of Fame? Check. The Art Gallery? Done. Casa Loma? Yep. Queen Street? Sure. Blue Jays baseball or Argonauts football at Rogers Center? Uh huh. The Indy race if you're lucky? You know it.

What's left? Well... how about taking in a NCAA hockey game too?

The Draft: Our 4th Major

Tennis has it's 4 Grand Slam events in the Aussie, French, U.S. Opens and Wimbledon.

Golf features The PGA Championship, The British and U.S. Opens and The Masters.

We here at TPS also have our 'Big Four' as well:

The Frozen Four

The Memorial Cup

The World Junior Championship

The NHL Entry Draft

I've been to 3 out of 4 events in the past and would really like one day to attend the NCAA championship tournament. For that reason alone the Frozen Four is the my PGA Championship. The Memorial Cup is the U.S. Open for me, while the Draft is the British. That leaves the WJC as The Masters for this guy, which are my 2 favorites in golf and hockey.

How about you? Also while you're chiming in, let us know who you think your favorite team is going to draft tonight.

And don't forget about the TEAM 1260's draft coverage today. We start with Just A Game at 2 PM, then Guy and I take over and lead you through the draft and beyond at 5PM MST. Were scheduled to be on until 9 PM tonight but if things go late, so will we. Rounds 2-7 will be covered off by The Fourth Period radio show starting at 8 AM Saturday. Hope you tune in tonight and we hope to hear from you after the draft. You can listen online through our site.
