    Beats empty burned out buildings, drunks and addicts sleeping and panhandling on the sidewalks, and parking decks that smell like giant urinals!

    Most likely. The property is worth too much no to redevelop.

    With 2 hours a week practices, how do you get ready for Wisconsin? Coach will know who gives him a better chance to win. I think the choice for the Wisconsin game is the true #1 to start the season.
    The question all summer has been who and when they would finally add a third goalie to the roster. I'm not speculating that he will be the starter. Only wondering if they got him on campus and are just being lazy about making the announcement. So yes, if it's not a transfer then the starter will be Kero or Beydoun. My money will be on Kero.

      If there is no experienced transfer goalie coming in, then Kero should get the nod by default. He has earned his shot. However hopefully we don't wait six games if Tech isn't winning or someone better shows up in practice to make a change. Imagine what last season might have been if Redmond got the starting job maybe 2 or 3 games sooner and we won some of those NC games... I would be in favor of putting Kero on a shorter leash, but giving him opportunities at other points in the season.

          How big a step do you think Gerrie and Beretta will make this year?
          Will Brice become a regular?
          Will either of the freshmen, Russell, Misiak, or Reitmeyer take ice away from Blacklock and Anderson.
          Does Baltus on the third line balance the lines a bit better by moving Gillies up to the second line.

          Let's talk a little hockey....

            Looks like he plays for Duluth Marshall HS.

              He put up real strong numbers last season. My question would be, not knowing Minn. High School, is that HS one of the stronger programs in the State, and does it play in a strong conference?

              On paper I really like a 1st line of Baltus, Steman, L'Esperance. But I also like how Gould and L' were clicking at the end of last season. So If I go for a balanced look I'd try something like this with the second and third line largely interchangeable.

              Gould, Steman, L'
              Jackson, Lucchini, Gerrie
              Baltus, Smith, Gillies

              4th line... Blacklock at center with Beretta, Brice, and Anderson and the freshmen sharing ice time until one or two of them play themselves into the line up full time.

              I think Misiak has the best chance of the freshman forwards of cracking the line up. Especially if any of the centers falter or get injured early.

                The Palace announced they will close following the Bob Seger concert Sept 26. IMO it was the best arena I've ever watched a hockey game in. Saw Gordie skat in a Vipers game there.

                      Nice opportunity to get his feet wet in the coaching business. Lawrence coach Mike Szkodzinski will be a good one for him to learn from.

                        I had to laugh a little when I saw the title of the article: "Former St. Norbert star McCadden selected new assistant coach at Lawrence". If averaging 0.33 PPG in the NCHA makes you a "star" player then I'm sitting on a gold mine! Forget collecting Howe, Gretzky, Crosby jerseys... My collection is already loaded with "stars". I guess I can stop putting money in my 401k and just put these gold bricks out on Ebay!

                          I don't know about conference. Conferences don't really matter in MN HS, it is more about how you play against your section, since that is how you get seeded, and how you get to the Tourney. I believe that Marshall School is now playing up, so they would be in section 7AA, along with Duluth East, Grand Rapids, CEC, Elk River, etc. That is not a weak section. Performing well against those teams would be a good sign.

                          edit: Marshall played a tough schedule last year, and didn't win games against the good teams. @Tonka, @Benilde, @Hermantown, @Grand Rapids, @STA, @Hill Murray. That is pretty brutal, but in many of those games, it looks like they were in the games, they just didn't win. And they did beat most of the teams that aren't in that upper echelon.
