Soo is a tough sell for recruits because of it's location and size. I still think the only way for smaller schools to compete with the big boys is to recruit 20 year old Freshman from Canada to win National Championships since the big boys take all the blue-chippers."The use of common sense and logic will not be tolerated and may result in fine and/or suspension."- Western Professional Hockey League By-laws. 1999-2000.

Re: LSSU hockey 2013-14
Unless LSSU gets a new President, 4 new Vice Presidents, and a brand new Board of Trustees who ALL put Athletics as a top priority, the Athletic Department at LSSU will not be getting a dime more to fund a head coach or any other endeavor. The last increase in the hockey budget for the "renovation" was difficult enough to get. The President of LSSU makes $150,000. No other person at LSSU will EVER make more than that. I would bet my life savings on it.
Keep dreaming everyone, unless you can find a good coach for $80K out there, we are in for more of the same. The late 90s/early 00s started a shift at LSSU: Athletics has taken a back seat to Academics at LSSU with regards to funding new things, and only a massive change in Admin across the board is going to reverse that.

Re: LSSU hockey 2013-14
Lakerblue...............it is my understanding that "one and done" schools, and Michigan quickly comes to mind, play "true freshman" as they plan on playing one, if not two years of college before heading off to
the NHL. From my experience, colleges that take players for Midgets/high school hockey without stopping for at least one year of Juniors, aren't doing the student/athlete any favors. A good example from Laker
history is Mike Vigilantte, who came to the Soo as a true freshman directly from the Little Caesars Midget Major AAA team. The only reason he came to the Lakers that early is that we were faced with matching Bowling Green's offer. They were blowing smoke at "Vig's" dad that he was ready for D1 hockey. He wasn't close. It took Mike until his Junior year to catch up to where he should have been if he had played
Juniors. This difficult situation was caused by the Little Caesars Midgets not being taught systems but used raw talent to promote swarm hockey. I heard this directly from college coaches working USA Hockey
camps in Colorado Springs when Matt appeared wearing orange & baby blue gloves. My opinion (and I usually have one) is that if there is any question, play Junior "A" and come in as a 20 year old atudent/athlete.
