Since no one started a season thread until about March last year, and the season is now upon us, I have taken it upon myself.
SCSU has typically not played their best hockey in the opening weeks of the season, but it looks like they should be a heavy favorite in this one. Bemidji lost half their scoring from last season and they didn't have much to lose. Walsh is a solid goalie and they bring back some solid defensemen, but BSU is picked to finish in the bottom half of the remodeled WCHA. Anything less than a sweep would be a disappointment.
It should be an interesting lid-lifter. Conference championship banner unfurled and Craig Dahl's induction into the SCSU Athletic Hall of Fame on Friday. Alumni night on Saturday. Would like to go to one of the games, but will probably end up watching the internet stream.
