Well, the Western Washington teams are all on board with half ice. The Eastern Washington teams don't want to go half ice. The problem is that the Rep teams in the East are all A teams while the Seattle based teams are B. The Seattle teams balance their rep teams rather than load up 1 team per association and have them compete as an A team. Also, every year there's 1 rep team that dominates the other rep teams in Seattle so by going to half ice you create parity by limiting the skilled players space. Anyway, what I've heard is that for the rep teams they'll play half ice for league games then schedule full ice games with Canadian teams.
