LSSU Lakers 2018-19

Re: LSSU Lakers 2018-19

I watched the Fri and Sat night games against UA_, and I was very impressed with the Lakers. Whitten is doing something right, your team looked amazing!

I am surprised the Lakers are driving all the way down to the Ann Arbor area to play an exhibition game this time of the season. They just got back from a long trip to Alaska and they turn around and take a bus ride to play an exhibition game. Then they have to come back down to play in the GLI . Seems like a lot of traveling for a game that does not count for anything .

If they didn’t play it, they would have 22 days between games. A five hour bus ride isn’t really a long trip and for the players headed home for Christmas, they’ll likely have a much cheaper flight home out of Detroit Metro than they would from the Soo. It actually works out pretty well. Merry Christmas Laker fans. Hope you all have a safe & happy holiday season.

I think we owed the U18s a game at their place and are playing there this weekend as a favor to them. It will also serve as game type competition in preparation for the GLI to break up what would otherwise have been a 3 week break in play. As Davy said, many of the players no doubt will head home for Christmas right from Detroit (cheaper to fly from there for our American players traveling by air). Most of our Canadian and European players are busing back to the Soo after the U18 game and those flying home for Christmas will fly out of Soo Ontario on Air Canada (cheaper/easier to fly from there for them). Mitens and Miura are not heading to their homes but have made other plans for Christmas.

From the BCHL last night, Laker recruits Joshua Wildauer had a hat trick for Coquitlam, Dustin Manz had a pair of goals for Prince George, and Niko Esposito-Selivanov had a pair of assists for Cowichan Valley, all in wins for their team.

Forward Branden Piku of the Meijers AAA hockey team has committed to the Lakers. Probably 3-4 years away.
