So where does Arizona State go from here?

The Big 10 hockey conference turned them down...

The NCHC just denied them membership...

That leaves only 2 options remaining for their fledgling Division One program:

1) continued independence

2) join the WCHA

Joining the WCHA is by far the most viable and most desirable option. ASU doesn't even have to pursue the WCHA -- the WCHA has been pursing them! Back in April 2016, the WCHA Commissioner Bill Robertson said: "The WCHA is still in active pursuit of Arizona State University and had productive meetings with them in Tampa at the Frozen Four, I'm hopeful and I understand this is a process."

Arizona State hockey has an open invitation to the WCHA. Coincidentally, the WCHA is the ONLY invite that ASU has to any division one hockey conference...

ASU hockey needs a home.

WCHA is offering them a home.

They don't have any other options.

They need a conference to grow their program.

"Beggars can't be choosers"

ASU to the WCHA -- make it happen
