    2017-18 St. Cloud State Season Thread

    This is a thread for people to discuss St. Cloud State University Huskies hockey. I thought we needed a thread for people to congratulate us when SCSU wins the Penrose, gets to the Frozen Four and eventually wins the National Championship.

    This is not a place to discuss NHL goal totals of players, research funding, or famous alumni from other universities.

    Regardless of the PWR, we're a horrible team and deserve nothing but derision. We're not even located in Minneapolis and therefore unworthy of having a successful year. We don't have enough history to have that PWR.

      I don't even know why we bother playing at all...i mean we have no one successful in the NHL...so what's the point?

        Anyone have thoughts on the goalie situation? Seemed like Bob was leaning toward Hrenak going into last weekend. Smith looked great on Friday night, then Hrenak gets the shutout on Saturday. I have no idea what Bob's plan is for the playoffs, but I think he will pick one goalie and stick with him. Hrenak clearly has the better numbers, but the team has a higher winning percentage with Smith in net. My gut says he will go with Smith, but I hope I'm wrong.

          I like Hrenak. He looks more fundamentally sound and squares up to the shooter better than Smith. He also seems calmer, more collected than Smith on the ice.

            It seems like it is shifting toward Hrenak but it may not become "his job" till the tourney.

              Nothing will surprise me with the goalies, so I'm not going to make a prediction. However, I believe that whoever ends up being the guy should start getting back-to-back starts pronto.

                SCSU scored 9 goals at home to WMU's 10 but got a split out of it. All by itself that doesn't bode well for SCSU this weekend playing on the road in Michigan.

                My prediction next 6, 2-4 overall, but 1-5 wouldn't surprise me at all.

                So this weekend I'm leaning towards a sweep, but only about 60/40. That 1 win in the not surprised if SCSU goes 1-5, would most likely come this weekend, imo.

                But I could be wrong. Enjoy the weekend.

                  Btw, I would not think of discussing anything but SCSU hockey here in the SCSU thread. I will even refrain from referring to the school by anything other than SCSU or St Cloud St University. And you also don't have to worry about me hanging out in here much at all. I mean, why would I have to, you all come to the Gopher thread more than here anyways, right? Hey, as long as its to discuss GOPHER hockey, I'm all for it.

                      But think of how SCSU getting a weekend sweep will be just that tiny bit more enjoyable knowing that not only did your team win, but Fred was proven WRONG, lol.
