Re: St Cloud renews head coach's contract
He's above .500 over the past 3-4 years, so unless he does something really dumb, he should keep his job. Maybe a four year deal is excessive, I don't really know what the norm is for WCHA contract extensions, but seems fair. Another recruiting class to come in and keep winnning.

A good long term goal for the Huskies would be to move into the top three and stay there. Looking at the rosters in the short term, a more reasonable goal may be to try to finish higher than OSU, BSU, and UND. That does not figure to be easy."... And lose, and start again at your beginnings

Originally posted by ARM View PostLet us know that the next time you plan to attend an SCSU/UM game in either city, because there are a number of Gopher fans that enjoy meeting fans of other teams. If nothing else, have The Boomer introduce us, because it is my suspicion that he knows everyone.

I will be interesting to see how UND and BSU fair this season. UND has the twins and BSU has a goalie that can take 60+ shots from the Canadian Olympic team. I wish I could be there to see it.Originally posted by SkeetermanLady Wore Black is a hottie.

Re: St Cloud renews head coach's contract
Originally posted by ARM View PostI don't think so. I don't know that The Boomer or Top Row have ever introduced me to anyone beyond their spouses, although I could probably pick Skeeterman out of a lineup. Mostly, we just talk hockey.
I hate to agree with Crazy Dave but finishing 3rd will need to be followed by getting to the next step in the playoffs. Last year's team was fun to watch--and the many seniors stepped up big time. This coming season will be one with little expectations from the "experts," I would guess. Hope springs eternal at St. Cloud that newcomers will sweep us all off our feet.
Or else Ashley Nixon will need to be very busy and VERY effective.

Re: St Cloud renews head coach's contract
We'll I don't know how to say this but here I go. St Cloud will become the bottom feeders. Ohio,ND,Bemidji will all be in front of SCSU for years to come. Geisen has been playing with Lesterberg's recruits for his stint as head coach. There is only one of Lesterberg's recruits left and that is Ashley Nixon. The rest of the team are Geisen's recruits and I think they accounted for about 5 or 6 goals last year. Nixon needs to be on her game, if she lets on goal in they will loose every game. Good luck girls it's going to bee a very trying season. Good thing the brain trust at SCSU gave your coach a 4 year extension for winning with Lesterberg's recruits. Keep your spirits up and remember, the main reason you are there is for an education.

Re: St Cloud renews head coach's contract
I count four players who were possibly Lesteburg's recruits. Roberts, Hogan, Pezon and Hirsch. Now those four players were huge producers for them and had outstanding careers at SCSU. The other 4 seniors (F.Nelson who transferred in after Lesteburg left) were not heavily recruited, if recruited at all.
Not securring a starting goalie to push Nixon was a mistake. Hopefully SCSU scores first in every game they play...Last edited by 123kidd; 06-06-2010, 03:00 PM.

Originally posted by player x View PostI might be missing something here. Nixon is their starting goalie, so why was it a mistake by not securing a starting goalie?
