LSSU Lakers 2019-20

Re: LSSU Lakers 2019-20

Great game! That was the team I thought they would be this season. Hopefully they show up again tomorrow night.
 
Re: LSSU Lakers 2019-20

Humitz is currently tied for 6th in the NCAA in goals scored and is only two off the goal scoring lead. The 22nd Laker to score 60 career goals and the 1st Laker since Sean Tallaire 25 years ago.

Also if Mitens plays the remaining 3 regular season games and 2 (hopefully more) playoff games, he would be at 39 games played. That would be the most by a Laker goaltender since Bruce Hoffort played 44 games in 1988-89.

Well let's hope the Lakers don't screw up down at Ferris State next weekend and win some games which would help UAA out.

Honestly, I don't know if I want UAA to make the playoffs. Yes, they were .02 seconds away from beating Mankato a few weeks ago, but that is not going to happen in the playoffs. They are gonna get killed.

Lakers guaranteed to be seeded 7th in WCHA playoffs. Only question is whether we travel to Minnesota State or Bemidji State.
 
Re: LSSU Lakers 2019-20

Very interesting postgame. Damon was very unhappy saying NMU was playing the game the wrong way.

Despite the loss at least the Lakers won the Cappo Cup. With the Lakers guaranteed to finish 7th, perhaps Damon will give Seth Eisele a start next weekend and give Mitens a rest before the playoffs.

Playoff experience is very valuable for young players.

I wonder. Do you think it would be better if they red shirt Seth this year? He hasn't played a minute. I think they are going to ride Mitens all the way.

This subject came up on one of the Laker Hockey Shows a little while back and I think Damon said it was being considered but no decision had been made yet. I assume Seth has input to the decision also. I believe football red shirt rules were changed such that a player can play in a few games and still red shirt. I don't think that applies to hockey but I don't really know for sure. Perhaps someone else knows what the rule is for hockey and will chime in. If Damon is going to play Seth at all this season, this coming weekend would be the time to put him in. The Lakers are locked into 7th position going into the playoffs.

I think a player can apply for a medical redshirt if their season is ended with an injury and they have only played in 25% of the games or less. I would think if Seth starts a game next weekend, they would not be able to redshirt him.

If you even play in a single game in the second half of the season, you burn the redshirt. Ray Brice was injured on his first shift of a game in January, and even though it was his first game of the season it cost him an entire year of eligibility.

I don't know. NMU kicked our asses Saturday. The Lakers looked gasses from Friday. I don't know where Damon is getting that they played the game the wrong way but I do think that says a lot about him, personally.

Can't say I'm holding out hope for a sweep against Ferris, but hopefully we end up in Bemidji this season. Give us a break from Mankato spanking us.

Maybe they need to train more on cardio and weights .
