Originally posted by MavHockey14 View PostI’d agree, however we’ll save that convo for the offseason. Thankfully this hasn’t affected the Mavs hardly at all. A little in conference pairwise strength, but when the Mavs have taken care of their own business, they’ve made the tourney regardless of what the league is doing.MTU: Three time NCAA champions.

I struggle to watch Bemidji games but i think their style is a recipe to beat us. RIT did it and eliminated the best Mavs team we had by defending and icing the puck. They were hoping for a some luck to get that go ahead goal and got it from the refs (I'm still bitter about that call)
I'm not sure which team is better but we just need to get a NCAA win. Period. The program needs it. I don't care what seed we get just win. I want to win WCHA tourney but let's be honest would losing and getting another WCHA team in be so bad? Northern Michigan could do some good things.
Well on to UAF which won't be easy. They always play us toughAll hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity. - Gordie Howe

Originally posted by MavHockey14 View PostHonestly, I’m not one bit worried about anyone else in the league except Minnesota State. They won the MacNaughton. Now win the Broadmoor. That’s two more championship banners in the rafters. If it means only one WCHA team gets in, I really don’t care. You can do these things and still win games in the NCAAs. Yes, they need an NCAA win badly, but they can do that and hang another banner along the way.

Re: 2017-18 Minnesota State Mavericks: Season Thread
Coach Hastings is currently on KFAN..
Mentioned that he praises Grant Potulny and NMU for a great season so far and a brand of hockey the WCHA needs and can help it be more successful.
Also was asked the toughest team he’s seen this year: mentions St. Cloud and UMD as the two teams that have given them the most problems. (Interesting, as it’s no secret Hastings wants to play in the NCHC.
Lots of praise for Zeb, CJ, LaCouvee, also praises Jaremko, Mackey, Schied, Lutz, Zmolek — does a good job outlining that local, MN kids are huge contributors as he is doing this interview on the radio Home of the rodents.
Why do you win? What makes you successful?
Utilize depth, play with speed, four lines, 6 defenseman, posses the puck, playing selfless, finish your shift so the next group is in a position to succeed.
Recruiting MN...against SCSU, UMN, UMD, BSU, and even Wisconsin and North Dakota..
All these teams, plus an influx of east coast teams that is trying to grab players from this state.. 11 on current roster, Hastings and Knott and Blue both from MN, fertile ground for great young talent, the guys that “bloom late” MN High School Seniors and in juniors, vital to our success.Last edited by MavHockey14; 02-28-2018, 11:20 AM.AF 99

NMU change was good to see. I enjoyed the games with them. I do want to see the WCHA as a whole get better. Better teams means better on ice product. I dont see the NCHC taking us unless there is another major shift.
Weekends games should be good. UAF sometimes gives is fits. I want to see this team come out with some jump and killer instinct.All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity. - Gordie Howe
