    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...

    Well, this livens up the offseason

    http://www.wcha.com/men/pres1516/201607/jul13wcm.php Not sure where things go from here.

    Minnesota State @ Bowling Green - When Cows and Falcons Collide

    A Maverick team I haven't figured out, but am starting to like, visits the highest ranked WCHA team. Tech fans are rooting for a split, and without sounding like a sandbagger, I'll join them in wishing for that! Flame away.

    2015 Minnesota State offseason

    http://mankatofreepresshockey.blogspot.com/ Rochester's Riese Zmolek, son of Doug, commits to MSU. I'm guessing we're looking at USHL this fall. It's good to get in the running for more in-state talent. For the first 2 North Star Cups, our roster has had the fewest Minnesota kids of the 4...

    Minnesota State @ Ferris State: Let the Weird Scheduling Begin!

    Mavericks make their first WCHA trip to Ferris, then the North Star Cup, then Ferris again in Mankato. For the Bulldogs, it's a scheduling quirk of Mavericks, @Mavericks, @Falcons, Falcons. Obviously, these next few weeks are make-or-break time for Ferris if they hope to defend their McNaughton...

    Minnesota State @ Lake Superior State: Is U.P. short for Upset?

    Kato coming off a terrific weekend in the UP, and now heads back to try for more points. LSSU started slow, but is 3-2 over its last 5. Can the Mavericks match the intensity level they brought last weekend, or is this the dreaded "trap" that sports announcers and unsuccessful bettors like to...
