    For sure. Almost everyone was down it appeared. That Minnesota/Michigan series was abysmal.

      And people thought college hockey would explode in popularity with the Big 10 Hockey Conference. That definitely hasn't happened. IMO, Big 10 Hockey has been a flop.

        The usual conference playoff obstacles - Spring Break for students, Minnesota High School semifinals and finals- plus a predicted massive snowstorm for Saturday that caused the game to get moved up 3 hours. This weekend will be interesting to see how it plays out. It should help that the students are back, but on the down side, this round is not covered in the season ticket holder package. Not a traditional rival, but a team that beat us in Mankato the last time we met. But we're also guaranteed an NCAA bid, and it looks like we'll have to travel to Pennsylvania or farther for that, so some fans may be saving money that trip. Hoping for 3500 or better, but not betting money on that. Last year against Tech, in a similar situation, the numbers were 2672, 3309, and 1962 (Sunday games are always going to stink).
        Losing 2 games this weekend would maybe help get you to Fargo instead?

          It worked last year to get us to Sioux Falls. But Sioux Falls didn’t work out very well!

              Hopefully Saccoman brings some of his magic to his home state this weekend.

                And hopefully Kossoff (and Mitens possibly) can play like Jeff Jakaitis did against Miami in 2007 when the Lakers pulled the big upset. We need that kind of goaltending again to upset Minnesota State.

                    The Lakers flight was canceled. They are now taking a bus to Mankato. I hope that doesn’t have any negative impact.

                      Was there a Laker Hockey Show this week? There is no podcast up yet.

                      The canceled flight and having to take a bus instead no doubt will have a negative impact. Tough luck.

                        Yes there was a Laker Hockey Show. I wasn't able to catch it and am waiting/hoping for the podcast. There was also a Laker Hockey Talk show which was recorded and was supposed to be broadcast this morning but wasn't for some reason or another. I'm guessing it will be on tomorrow morning instead (around 8:30).

                        Yeah, too bad about the flight being cancelled. I guess there was a lot of fog up that way?

                          I think the podcast of the Laker Hockey Show will be up sometime tomorrow, hopefully in the morning.

                            Congrats to Cuglietta (1st), Humitz (3rd), Nellis (3rd) and Calder (Rookie) for earning All WCHA Team honors.

                            Cuglietta is the first Laker foward to earn conference 1st Team Honor since Sean Tallaire in 1996 if I researched correctly.

                                Minnesota State was just asking the Lakers to tie it with penalties. Need to capitalize on the PP.
