Michigan Tech Huskies 2020-21: * Our 100th Anniversary * No Catchy Title Needed *****

[davyd83]

One other note - since NMU rescheduled a game with Lake State for Wednesday 25 November, that becomes their opener (ostensibly to avoid an overnight stay in the Soo during I-500 weekend). This will be the game where Griffin Loughran will serve his one game suspension from last year's playoff game, so he will be available for the Friday night game on the 27th in Marquette.

The game Dec 2 at the Soo is the rescheduled WCHA game from I-500 weekend. In exchange for NMU agreeing to make two trips to the Soo, the Lakers will come to Marquette for a non-conference matchup on Nov 25.

I would like to know how the new unlimited transfer rules are going to affect us.I can't see anything positive coming out of it.

I don't think it will hurt us that much. IMO we have done well on the transfer "exchange." If guys buy into Tech and Joe's coaching style, I don't think we will lose that many guys. Joe has also shown to be very active on the transfer "wire" getting team-helping players with overall good results.

There is only so much ice time. For every guy from the WCHA who transfers to go to the B1G/Nacho/... there is one that was pushed out that we can pick up.

Am I the only one who thinks we have a good team this year? Yes, a lot has to go right (injuries, Covid,...) and some puck luck. I think it is reasonable for us to be a top 4 team in the WCHA.

The roster is very strong. They've added size, skill, and have good depth and experience. Given some good leadership and the right guys taking another step in their development, this has the potential to be a top level team. I don't think you need to hold the ceiling at top 4.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this year’s final regular season week could just like last year’s. Tech certainly has the opportunity to be among the better teams in the league.

Looks like there's a Joe S. show today at 10ET.

Also looks like there will be an additional jersey this year that'll be shared some point.

That's the 100th Anniversary Throwback which is supposed to be released this week. Based on the concepts I've seen I'm pretty stoked about the design. I hope the quality of construction is worthy of 100 years of Tech Hockey. The "special" jerseys they have been doing the last few seasons were really cheap quality. But since they were only intended to be worn once and auctioned for charity I get the reasoning. Hopefully the 100th jerseys will be much nicer quality and on par with some of their other current jerseys.

You couldn't ask for a better throwback jersey. Just awesome.
