A New Field Returns in 2019

The Ice Vegas Invitational came back for a second annual edition in early January 2019, this time with a fresh slate of teams. Connecticut, Air Force, Western Michigan, and St. Lawrence each made the trip to the desert to play on neutral Strip ice. Four programs from four corners of the college hockey map met in matchups that rarely happen during a typical season, giving fans another reason to make a Las Vegas hockey weekend out of it.
