debater, I agree with you and shoe. If D1 is already in such good shape, what would you say to the guys who want more and more advantages for D1?
The biggest problem for many coaches in regards to caps is when D1 competes against D1, both teams typically max out on HV and CV, usually give a start and some minutes, and wait out a luck-filled snoozefest. That is why many D1 coaches want to up the caps or remove the caps. There is a debate, and its not cut and dry, but this is the main reasoning.
Spud, who cares if D1 has natural advantages over DII (just like in Real Life) ??? DII doesn't directly compete against D1 for titles. DII competes against DII at the end of the day. Why this obsession? DII teams are not trying to win the D1 title.
Any advantage/disadvantages that DII has is the same across all of DII,
EVERY DII COACH WILL HAVE THE SAME EQUAL DISADVANTAGE (vs. D1) OR ADVANTAGE (
vs. DIII)
As a DII coach, you should only be concerned about being on an equal playing field with the rest of DII.
I feel like this is a simple fact that has been repeated ad nauseum. I know that your talking points will not change, but I feel like just repeating it one more time.
