    Minnesota State 2025-26 Season: Get To Know 'Em

    Friday might have been the best game of the Strand era, and then Saturday they got it done even though Tech was the better team for much of the game. I'm much more positive about the season than I was 2 weeks ago!

    Minnesota State 2025-26 Season: Get To Know 'Em

    I was wrong in an earlier post when I said I didn't know what kind of team we're going to be. We're going to be Alex Tracy's team. Nice win!

    Minnesota State 2025-26 Season: Get To Know 'Em

    Still trying to get to know this team and all the new guys. By this time last year, we knew the line we could count on, we knew our top pair on D, had a pretty good handle on what the power play would look like, etc. I'm not sure we've resolved much on a lot of those things. We knew Luigi would...

    Minnesota State 2025-26 Season: Get To Know 'Em

    Well, that weekend was...inconclusive? I'm really not sure what to make of it.

    Minnesota State 2024-25 Season: Together We Strand

    I wish Eisele the best. He's been a warrior for us. But we do have some real offensive potential coming in this year with Pritchard and Kernan, so I feel better about losing a forward than I do a D-man.

    Minnesota State 2024-25 Season: Together We Strand

    There's a pretty good Aviation major at the school (Sort of a running joke for Stunt Monkey and some of the mid-game promotions). I know they do a lot of simulator training, but I'm guessing a lot of actual flights. Wonder if that counts in the number of flights out of the airport.

    ATTN: gawd awful hockey east teams--yes that is you uconn, maine, uhn, and NOTRE DAME

    Don't have any statistical data, but as a CCHA season-ticket holder, I've often thought our refs are a little "5 Happy" when it comes to penalties. Now I'll have to start looking for numbers.

    Minnesota State 2024-25 Season: Together We Strand

    I forgot about Tech. Old school (points, not percentages), we're 9 up on them, with 12 points to play, so they're still alive. We need to earn at least 3 to beat Augie anyway, so the scenario is no different with Tech.

    Minnesota State 2024-25 Season: Together We Strand

    My math is poor, but I think 3 beats Augie, and 6 (combination of our points won or their points lost) beats BG.

    Robert Morris Done?

    Just heard the news. I don't know enough about the school to say. Is this an institution in some financial trouble, or is this really a strategic decision to rebrand?

    Hobey 10

    Wild guesses: Perunovich Leonard Michaelis O'Connor Swayman Dugan Abruzzese Jason Cotton Sucese Kawaguchi I tried to hit every conference. Don't know that voters will do the same. Might have reached on the freshman, but he put up big numbers.

    WCHA Playoff Thread

    Come on! We have to have a playoff thread, don't we? Anyway, some interesting numbers concerning who's "coming in hot." Second Half of the Season records Kato 11-2-1 LSSU 9-4-1 NMU 8-4-2 UAF 8-5-1 BGSU 7-5-2 BSU 6-5-3 Tech 4-8-2 UAH 4-8-2 Ferris 4-8-2 UAA 1-11-2 I know, I know. Some teams...

    2017-18 Minnesota State Mavericks: Season Thread

    Because someone had to start one. Questions - Will one of our goalies seize the net this year and make it his? Will some of the freshman be able to make the leap this year? Will our early start be "that which kills us" or "that which doesn't kill us and makes us stronger"? Bring on the season!

    Minnesota State 2016-2017: From Forgotten to Hated

    Wanted to start the thread anyway, and now have some news: http://www.mankatofreepress.com/sports/former-msu-hockey-player-jackman-going-back-to-school/article_c5746d2a-63fb-11e6-a21e-3b3e5c635f0b.html I'm assuming this is good news. There's a lot that grad assistants can't do, but it's still...
