LSSU Lakers 2021 off-season thread

Bill said:
I haven't heard anything new. As mentioned previously, Union is supposed to play the Lakers in the Soo on Oct 22-23.

Seems likely that we could have at least one non-conference series against somebody in early October prior to the start of conference play.

Hopefully Jeff Jackson is able to get Notre Dame to come to the Soo for a game or two but I doubt that will happen
 
The Lakers AD Dr. Paitson will be moving on to be a professor at the University of Indianapolis. I will give him kudos for being at LSSU during the resurgence of Lake State hockey and the implementation of the new CCHA. Good luck to him!

Did anyone get a chance to listen and see if he mentioned anything on non-conference opponents / schedule?

No, there was no discussion of the 2021-22 schedule. Union is supposed to play at Lake State Oct 22-23; that's the only non-conference opponent I've heard about so far.

I heard that the season ticket renewal letter said that there will be 19 home games plus 3 playoff games included in the package.

The CCHA schedule shows 14 home games so that leaves 5 non-conference home games. The 2 games with Union seem to be set, so there should be 1 other non-con home series against somebody, plus a single game. The single game would probably be either an exhibition game against a Canadian school or the USNDP, or perhaps a game against Notre Dame.

We should be due for the June edition of the Laker Hockey Show next Tuesday.

the USNDTP (Oct 15) & Notre Dame (Oct 17) are playing a split series at NMU, but Tech is filling the other half with ND on the 15th and US on the 16th.
 
From the Hockey Show, the Lakers will be playing a series at UM in early October and UM will play in the Soo the following season. (The specific October dates weren't mentioned.) It sounded like we'll also have another non-conference road series in early October against someone. The USNDP will be playing a game in the Soo this coming season.
 
LSSU has approved the funding for major improvements to their streaming video service. The reported $175,000 will upgrade cameras, switcher, graphics, and other equipment. All should be in place for the start of the 2021-22 season.
