The Lakers will be wearing their road blues this evening. Damon wanted to wear the yellow jerseys, but the NCAA said no.

I'd go so far to say they are a one man program. Without Makar, they have one NCAA tournament win in school history.
I think Pete Veillette will be getting his degree this year. His return is questionable. He has a year of eligibility left so I hope he comes back, but who knows.Hoping Calder be next back next season. I have some doubts as his strong season I'm sure has gotten lots of attention of NHL organizations. If he does return barring injury, he should reach the 100 career plateau.
Congrats on the nice season Lakers. I was so hoping for an all WCHA Regional final tomorrow.
This did not age well.
I mean look at UMass, and yes Bill was right they were excellent two years ago, but was that enough to make it seem like they are some amazing program with their coach getting a ton of airtime on the selection show? UMass was always a pretty mediocre hockey school from what I saw. But then they have Hobey Winner Cale Makar during one great season two years ago, and now UMass is suddenly elevated to another status?
We'll see what happens with UMass in the tourney without Makar. It will be nice to know where the Lakers stand nationally on Friday.
