<> Michigan Tech Huskies 2021-22: STILL Our 100th Anniversary <>

Joe said on his show today that we have a goalie committed for next season. His identity does not seem to be public knowledge, but I have some guesses:

1. Max Gutjahr (Amarillo, NAHL) – from Appleton, Wis.; NAHL goaltender of the month for November; teammate of Oliver Bezick
2. Alex Tracy (Sioux City, USHL) – has since committed to Minnesota State
3. Sam Evola (Johnstown, NAHL) – from Rochester, Mich.; 12th best sv.% in NAHL (10+ GP)
4. Lassi Lehti (El Paso, NAHL) – 8th best sv% in NAHL (10+ GP); Houghton may be a welcome change after El Paso for an Espoo native

Sam Evola just committed to Bowling Green. At least I'm decent at identifying future CCHA goalies...
 
Several reasons, but nothing to do with nmu. 1. the average person has no idea just how easily transmissible the omicron variant is. It is really, really easy to catch. 2. Even if you are boosted, it's still easy to catch, it's just milder. 3. Societies attitude toward the virus is cavalier. Go to Home depot or any other business, no one wears a mask, no one thinks they could get it, except they can. So with that lax attitude, which is in contrast to the whole rest of the world frankly, it means there is a lot of virus out there lurking around. Ie the test positivity rate is high.
Thus it is not surprising that even though teams take a lot of care to protect themselves, they still get it. What is surprising is that more teams don't have outbreaks.

Terrific response. I agree with you.
 
Just what we all suspected, and it's now confirmed through a FOIA request.

Out of your hands, eh Marv?

Pathetic, especially from a Tech alumni. You couldn't trust Merv even if his tongue was notarized.

If this isn't reason to kick the skunk weasels on ice out of the GLI...

"Anybody can get on social media and say anything," Pearson said on his pregame radio show. "People need to understand the facts."

It shouldn't be too hard, they clearly don't want to be there. At the very least I would tell Michigan we're going in a new direction without them the next 3-4 years. If they want to get back in down the road, give us a call, and we'll talk about it, but no promises.
