    Ha! I didn't realize you were Tech too.

      We used to be (Thomas S.) Clarkson (Memorial) College of Technology aka CCT. It changed to Clarkson U in the 80s, but we're still Techers.

        Based on the 100 year storm, I say Clarkson and Anchorage.

        I am confirmed for the UMD series to open the season. Now just need to stake a claim to a seat at the KBC for pre-game and the Continental Fire for post-game.

          Not sure if Williamson was not discussed, but just went with the ones discussed on the show.

            We've never played at Clarkson. Anchorage will continue to be on the schedule for the foreseeable future. Should be an easy choice, I think.

            One of our posters pointed out that the best option, if you've got extra time and don't mind a bit of mountain driving in November, might be to fly into Albany and stop off in Lake Placid for a day on one end of the drive to Potsdam.

Saw as explanation on how all ages help clean mud out of basements. Strongest shovel mud into buckets. Next strongest form bucket line to haul it up steps. Next strongest haul it on flat ground to waiting containers. Children run empty buckets back to basement. Anybody with a piece of heavy equipment is out and helping. It's a wonderful feeling community. Teams of little leaguer are playing their nighttime games and then going to work for a couple of hours. Hockey teams out working. Those who can't do heavy work are making sandwiches, organizing work schedules, passing out water, putting together work kits for homeowners. And there is no whining or complaining, or "why us?" stuff going on. I'm just hitting on a little bit of the extraordinary effort going on.

                The response has been amazing. Thanks so much to all who have helped. #SISU on Friday there will be a fundraiser at DIGS in Marquette, where donations will go to the Copper Country for every draft and every dog sold. If you’re around Marquette, please stop by.

                  I'm guessing it was unintentional but "Clean UP" (Or maybe Clean U.P.) sounds like a great slogan for the recovery effort. Glad to hear things are making progress in the right direction.

                  I'm planning to make the Clarkson trip based on "who knows when Tech will ever play there again..." I plan to fly into Albany, NY and then depending on the weather either do a day of skiing in Vermont (would be ify that time of year) or spend the day in Lake Placid being a tourist before heading up North for Tech hockey.

                  My other trips for this season will be to Houghton for the Duluth series for sure (which is also MTU parents' weekend so lodging is tough to find) and then maybe the Bemidji road series if one of those games goes outdoors or maybe the GLI to see the new Pizza Palace. If those two don't pan out then maybe I'll pick somewhere else or hold off and hope for another playoff run road trip.

                    I'll hit Wisco and Huntsville for sure. Then see if I want to fly back for Clarkson. Or Anchorage.

                      I'm hoping to make it up to Houghton for at least one game of each home series - bith UMD games for sure. Other than that, GLI and Clarkson are at the top of the list.

                          The Friday night game in Bemidji will be outdoors, the Saturday game will be in the Sanford Center. FoxSportsNorth is NOT televising either one.

                            That last line is extremely disappointing...would have been great exposure for both programs in Minnesota...won’t be on Lakeland either?

                              What a joke. Why even have an outdoor game then?
