@GopherPuckLive It won’t be Larson either. Expect the same situation. He’ll interview. But this looks like leveraging an extension with his SCSU contract due to expire after 27-28. This is Potulny’s to lose.

Now hearing that Raboin declined and that it will be Larson. I have no idea if that is true. Just what I heard.

@GopherPuckLive The Larson interview honestly is leverage for an extension in St Cloud like Raboin’s situation. I don’t believe he is seriously considering the job. Good leverage though.

Looking at the coaching record of both Larson and Potulny in the NCAA.... Both regressed after initial success. Not sure why they are being considered.

@CenterIceView @Patrick_Reusse I’d expect to hear the same thing in St Cloud soon. I think it was always Potulny’s job or internal.

@Patrick_Reusse Or maybe he's exhibiting loyalty to a school that gave him an opportunity to build something. A trait seldom seen these days in collegiate sports.

So the reports are a fella would rather stay at Augustana than coach the Gophers men’s hockey team. He either doesn’t want any part of the new, potent Big Ten or Mark Coyle as a boss —- or maybe he’s like me & hates the Lowry Tunnel.

@chstrcpprpt33 @AndrewSCSUHHP @MoarClappers Exciting for sure though!! Well deserved!!!

@JPAmann @AndrewSCSUHHP @MoarClappers Yeah. Just had his first practice so no rush

@AndrewSCSUHHP @MoarClappers flames will have a little piece on Gross during the first intermission if you’re watching. He isn’t making his debut but should be soon

@AntiTankAIDrone @Fan960Wills @tygross23 @stcloudstate He’s ineligible for the AHL this season, so I’d expect to see him dress soon and get time with the Flames the rest of the way.

@Fan960Wills @tygross23 @stcloudstate Does anyone know what the plan is for him? In past years, Conroy would sign a player in the spring, he will practice with the Flames for two weeks, play one NHL game, then be sent down to the AHL.

Here’s Calgary native @tygross23 in his first morning skate with #Flames. Gross, who captained @stcloudstate and led team with 41 points in 36 games this season, was named NCHC Defensive Forward of the Year yesterday. He’ll wear No. 39.

"I couldn't be happier to be here in Calgary." Tyson Gross speaks with the media after his first skate with the group.

@sydneyisawolf Assuming a Senior/Grad Transfer? Makes most sense. Gray could also come back out of the Portal like he did last year when he did find anything I assume?

Third-string goaltender James Gray of St. Cloud State is in the transfer portal. The Huskies do not have any goaltending recruits at this time so they will have to pick up a freshman or transfer this offseason. My portal tracker: apx-hockey.com/news-detail-83

@LetsGoDU Right?? He ain’t leaving the premier conference in college hockey to go to the Big 10. He has a privately funded coaching job. Money is endless, but like you said it’s not just about the money. His next stop is NHL not another college team. He’s on top of the mountain.

The delusion meter is running hot in Minneapolis this afternoon lmao

@GoferBender @NDBrian76 @JetSeth747 @UNDmhockey Everything changes when a coach gets fired though. They can change that in a heartbeat.

@NDBrian76 @JetSeth747 @UNDmhockey Brooks and Wyatt already confirmed they will be gophers next year

I wonder if Jax and Chyzyk will be able to grab any Gopher recruits. Several of them should now be interested in @UNDmhockey I would think…. Get to work and start flipping commits!

Former Husky Kaleb Tiessen has been released from his SPC (Standard Player Contract) by the Indy Fuel of the ECHL. He was initially signed by the Rapid City Rush in December and traded to Indy in February. He posted 1A in 17 games in the ECHL.

When a lower seed beats a higher seed it isn't necessarily an upset. They split four games this season, UMD now wins the season series. Upset? No. Just a good win in a game between two really good and pretty even teams.

@MoarClappers Ya. The predictor is wild. Could see a 4 team bubble buster. If you’re not in top 13 at the end you’re out. (CCHA, ECAC, AHA, HEA) winners could all be outside the top 16 currently. Though if Mankato wins they move up to 13. I vote for CHAOS!!

While Augustana, at 16, has no scheduled games left and is at 18% for an at large.

Probability Matrix has St Thomas at 0% chance for an at large sitting at 13.

@LetsGoDU @westernmichfp Mike McMahon from CHN said it was possible prior. He even said they don’t spread out conf. Just avoid first round matchups. IF WMU is the 4, they get the worst placement travel/attendance of the 1’s. Everything after that is just matchups. WMU 4 Den 5. Could be Loveland for both

@westernmichfp No bracketology I’ve seen has WMU in Loveland since all four top seeds are going to be western teams. I think you all are going back east.

What a fantastic hockey game. This is college hockey at its finest. Just like it was twice last year. I don’t want it, obviously, but college hockey would be lucky to see another DU-WMU matchup in a few weeks.

@AndrewSCSUHHP Minnesota St would be a bubble buster too at this point sitting at #18. Potentially have to be in Top 12 to get in outside those 4 autos if Minnesota St, OSU, Merrimack, Clarkson/Harvard win. Love the chaos!!

Ohio State is #20 in the NPI despite a 14-20-2 overall record. But that's a little deceiving, as they went an astounding 1-8-2 in 3x3 OT this season. 5 on 5, they're an above-.500 team at 13-12-0. Bunch of bubble-busters still alive: OSU, Merrimack, Clarkson; maybe Harvard too

@MN_Bullies @Bully_Bats

Ring party for the Lumberjacks. 😀

@LetsGoDU @UofHockeyBlog If that is the case, you're going to the NCHC put the tournament right back in St. Paul, where they feel like they can probably make more money as a conference instead.

@UofHockeyBlog Yeah, that's where I'm at. Include it in future years if you think there's a reasonable chance you're going to host a semifinal and then issue refunds if necessary. Might be some walkup sales improvement, but I'm absolutely concerned about both games being dress like a seat night

The Ralph has their work cut out for them to fill these seats by puck drop on Saturday

@Zyoung407 @LetsGoDU @UofHockeyBlog In MN (HS Hockey/Break), problem with last weekend is they don't go, then those season tickets never become available for those that want to go. So a 75% empty barn is nearly a sell out by rule. Those season tickets sit empty, people don't want to be stuck up top. It's a snowball

@LetsGoDU @UofHockeyBlog WMU use to include it, didn’t this year and it showed Friday and Saturday night last weekend.

@CJOLSON21 @DStarmanHockey @TheNCHC @ShireenRinkside @benholdenpxp @AlexHeinert It still is to this day lol, never a dull moment in the games between them, it's so stressful!

@JPAmann @DStarmanHockey @TheNCHC @ShireenRinkside @benholdenpxp @AlexHeinert Those SCSU teams were so tough to play against - it just felt like it was going to be a 1 goal game that could go either way every time those two teams played!

14th st year I've been in Minneapolis/STP this particular weekend, first that it has not been for @TheNCHC Frozen Faceoff. Miss seeing all the fans of the great programs that competed in the event. We sure had some classics! @ShireenRinkside @benholdenpxp @AlexHeinert

@CJOLSON21 @DStarmanHockey @TheNCHC @ShireenRinkside @benholdenpxp @AlexHeinert That game was a gem for sure. I was on the wrong side of it, but a great memory made nonetheless!

@DStarmanHockey @TheNCHC @ShireenRinkside @benholdenpxp @AlexHeinert It was the absolute best! The 2019 Championship game between SCSU and UMD is one of my favorite college hockey memories to this day. So much talent on the ice and we definitely miss you all calling college games, hope all is well!
