We stayed at a hotel by campus and the desk clerk sat behind bullet proof glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxnatty#8 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Our timing for this 4 game road stretch might be pretty good as St Cloud and Western might be due for clunkers. We’ve had enough clunkers for a whole season so we should be good in that dept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Cloud is a college town as with most there are pros and cons, some like to exaggerate the cons, others enjoy the pros. SCSU is in a downward spiral as far as students and funding. In the last two decades interest in the hockey program has waned, despite them having successful seasons most years. They've made some clunker decisions that have alienated them in the community (eliminating Homecoming - which they brought back after a few years), eliminating football, student issues in off campus housing. Also it's tough to compete against St. John's which seems to have a protective dome over them when it comes to their issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about we just up our game and start beating teams by playing better ourselves. After all, we were picked ahead of them at the beginning of the season, so our talent level should be sufficient if we start putting it together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 It's been almost twenty years since SCSU was eviscerated on Penn and Teller's Bullsh*t!. The episode deals with the infamous letter to guidance counselors in the cities stating that the school is a hostile environment for minorities. How low is their enrollment this year? That article in the strib a year ago made it sound like the school was locked in a death spiral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxfaninseattle Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 A positive from last weekend was all the goals scored were even strength. The flip side, unfortunately, was no PP goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
