Goaltending for 2018 and Beyond

Michigan Tech's biggest hole as of a month ago was goaltending, and while the run by Packy Munson against Minnesota State and Northern Michigan has softened that concern, there's still one spot open between the pipes for next season.

Shawhan Gambling on Green Bay

During the Winter Carnival break, Michigan Tech received a commitment form Nick Nardella, a 5'-9" forward from Rosemont, Ill. He joins two of his teammates on the Green Bay Gamblers as future Huskies. Trenton Bliss committed back in December and Cooper Watson (younger brother of Cliff and current Husky, Carver) are also currently playing for Pat Mikesch. All three are expected to join the Huskies either next season (Watson and Bliss) or the year after (Nardella) but for today, we'll focus on the two newer additions.

An Old Dog in Texas: How Recruiting is Changing The Game

Over the past two decades, recruiting has changed dramatically. As information about young athletes expanded and as alumni and fans became immersed in the “recruiting wars,” the way a roster is assembled has developed into a game-within-the-game. What will it take to successfully recruit in this new era of one-and-dones and flashy facilities?

The First One Hundred Days

Joe Shawhan was announced as Michigan Tech's newest head coach just over 100 days ago. He's already received the commitment of Michigan's 2017 Mr. Hockey, a 50-point scorer for a pretty good Minnesota High School and a veteran goaltender that could start for the Huskies against Wisconsin in less than two weeks. Shawhan and his staff have hit the ground running, improving the team for this season and likely the future.
