For the 2nd year in a row, the off-season thread is started later than the prior season. The future is looking bright right now. Hopefully we can finish in the top 5 and finish at least .500 next season.

Gordie really caught fire starting with the Bemidji Series in mid February. He had a .943 saves percentage between then and the season ending defeat.
Let's hope they actually post the Laker Hockey Show podcast this week. I can never listen to it live because I work.LSSU hockey-3 time NCAA champs 1988, 1992, 1994

Re: LSSU Lakers 2016 off-season thread
For various reasons I attended 2 games this winter for the first time since roque's crew quit on him. Both Bemidji St. & Northern wins. I was really impressed with their effort, speed, goaltending and over all hustle of the team. It didn't surprise me when they took Minn State to 3 games, it wouldn't have surprised me either if they would have won the series.
If any of the members of the team should read this thread I would say to you; even know your record was less than .500, your team improved tremendously from the last time I saw you play. Keep up the good work and I believe it will really show itself next season and Coach Whitten keep it up you are doing a great job. I am looking forward to watching you play next season.
Go Lakers!Go Lakers!

Re: LSSU Lakers 2016 off-season thread
A number of monkeys have been thrown off the backs of the Lakers this year, including:
Beating Mankato (first time ever)
Winning at Ferris (first time since 2008)
Sweeping _airbanks on the road (first time since the 90s)
Personally, if we were to be bounced by anybody in 3 games in the first round, I'm glad it was Mankato. We've shown that we can hang with Tech and BG, but to put together 3 well-contested games against somebody who has had your number the way Mankato has, it leaves a feeling of optimism (even though we lost).
My only hope is that we don't regress next year, like has happened in the past ('07-'08, after going to The Joe stands out.)

Here is a recap from the Mankato Free Press for game two, with much attention on Defiel styming the Mavs:
