Good move on Clarkson's part hiring a well connected Quebecois. Untapped population for NCAA hockey, especially once MJ players can go to college.

Notre Dame has the strongest brand in college sports but even that couldn't overcome his reputation as a stifling coach who doesn't prepare players for the pro game. He made a fool of himself on the way out with this interview. ND lacrosse, as similar to hockey demographically as a sport can be, just won two nattys in a row.

This could be interesting.  St. Paul can be tricky this way they have a branch of the Interstate System 35E with a speed limit of 45 and serious load restrictions.

Friend of a friend who grew up on Summit Ave said it's because some of the most influential families in MN live right there and have for generations. The James J. Hill house literally backs up to 35E right as the slowdown starts.

Sounds like 1 less goalie at Western Michigan

Good for Augustana, but seems like the CCHA is not wanting them to jump ship and not pay an exit fee.
