LSSU hockey 2013-14

And then Wisconsin plays at NMU in Green Bay. That weekend generates big money for NMU. And you don't generate positive PR by locking out 1/2 to 2/3 of your fans for any game against a big rival. Lock out 1,500 fans at $16 bucks a head and that costs you more than bus, hotel and meals for the team on a trip to Madison.

So your saying your team makes more money playing on the road then playing in front of the home crowds. Sad

Why not generate some positive PR in Alger and Luce counties and split the series between Munising and Newberry? NMU could play Tech in L'Anse! Is the Pelkie Fairground Rink still open? How about the Laurium Airport? Think of all the positive PR! Maybe NMU and LSSU could try for some Canadian PR by playing in Wawa or Blind River!

The series in Green Bay means higher ticket prices. So the same crowd in Green Bay generates 50% more revenue than it would in Marquette. It also is a way to reach out to alums in the Fox Valley and Green Bay areas, of which there are a significant number.
 
ESPN 8: The Ocho. Right after dodgeball.

If ESPN can broadcast MAC college football on Thursday nights they can broadcast WCHA hockey in the Soo.

I believe the new WCHA has something to offer ESPN.

With Bowling Green the original CCHA team and it's dominance early on has lots of history. LSSU a little school in middle of know where dominates for three National Championships. NMU and MTU have also showed up.
There is a story to be told with the history of the remaining WCHA teams.
UAH Charfgers have won four National Championships to top it off.
The WCHA is intriging with unique stories to told.

ESPN will buy it just have to sell it to the .

ESPN didn't want the old WCHA or CCHA, which teams with a much more marketable profile and you think they'll have national advertisers salivating at Alaska-Anchorage at Bemidji State?

Where is the truth?

The Truth appeared but disappeared and came out speechless. Not enough Roque bashing and negativity. It has been to positive that even Bill has disappeared too.

Havent seen 3dog either. Guess you have to start bashing Roques coaching to get the Truth back to his repeating posts.
 
Re: LSSU hockey 2013-14

I wish truth was back. I would rather read his same old same over and over again than fantasies that are being posted over and over again by pink pony . Truth may not have any friends on here but what he says is pretty much right in the way everything has been heading with Laker hockey. I do give him that.

Hopefully the Truth Sisters will respond to sorrows as I head on a ship to Mackinaw Island to see the real Pink Pony as Davyd would say.

Or maybe it's because you haven't said anything worth responding to.

Amen to this x 1,000, This thread has had a fantastic group of posters frequent it over the past few years, including even the non-LSSU fans who comment at intervals, but for god sakes how long are you people going to feed this troll?? He's obviously going to say anything to instigate further nonsensical conversation, and he has nothing of substance to say.
 
Re: LSSU hockey 2013-14

Ron Fogarty is a finalist for the UAA job. If he doesn't get it, maybe he'll be in the Lakers' future as potential coach when Roque's time is up. He's now shown his interest in moving up to Div 1.

Nothing lately interests me. Letting like minds enjoy themselves.

If someone gave an update on what the heck happened to Coach Roques offer from Buffalo I would be interested. Multiple people verified that he received an offer from Coach Rolston but apparently either Coach Roque turned it down or Buffalo pulled it.

That would be great for UAA. Seems like a guy who can right the ship up in Anchorage.
