Re: 2017-18 Minnesota State Mavericks: Season Thread
I would expect 750 or so Maverick fans in the building Friday and if they can pull off a win, 1,000 or so on Saturday. Excited to see the support in Sioux Falls given the close proximity. It seems like everyone I talk to with season tickets is headed west. Exciting times!AF 99

Re: 2017-18 Minnesota State Mavericks: Season Thread
Can we fast forward to tomorrow?
CANNOT WAIT!!
Thoughts on the UMD matchup? I like the ability to have last change as well as the fact they’ve seen the Bulldogs twice and have an idea of how they want to attack them with plenty of film to make that decision.
It’s also time for the top guys to lead us again. MTU series was not pretty for the top line, and CJ and Zeb, back in Sioux Falls, need to be difference makers.Last edited by MavHockey14; 03-22-2018, 10:12 AM.AF 99

Re: 2017-18 Minnesota State Mavericks: Season Thread
Slightly off topic for tomorrow night, but had anybody heard more reasoning besides a vague blanket statement why Mankato was denied entry into the NCHC? It may have basically come as a bill that would have had to include ASU which could have hurt their odds, but what if Mankato and Bemidji were added? I understand the NCHC has very specific standards of what they want from member schools but can’t help but believe that with a state as rich with hockey talent as Minnesota wouldn’t benefit with a single conference. I do love the small conference and getting to see UMD play 4 games in Colorado every year thoughI wanna go fast!

ASU not having their **** together in terms of an arena made them less than desirable for the NCHC.
Additionally, BSU isn’t seen as a viable option for the NCHC at this point in time, as it isn’t as easily accessible for teams as the conference would like.
As mentioned, the NCHC has ZERO interest in an odd number of teams.
There are a few other reasons, however those were the main two when the Mavericks spent $25,000 and applied to the league.AF 99

And they didn't want to accept us because it would create an odd number of teams. Personally, I think it would make sense for Bemidji to join, and would like that, but I have not heard of any interest on their part.
