The Rink Live's Mick Hatten is in Omaha with a front-row view of all the action. This week we talk about SCSU's start to the season, how they will address the struggling power play, whether North Dakota is still the top team in the country and Mick's growing music collection.
After a lull in live sports on our stations Friday night, we will return strong with a number of games on our airwaves Saturday and Sunday. Here's a look at what to listen for this weekend.
The Gophers' schedule gets much tougher when they start their Big Ten Conference slate on Tuesday at #6 Illinois. The game can be heard on AM 1390 Granite City Sports, with pregame coverage beginning at 5:30 p.m.
The #13 St. Cloud State Huskies (3-0) will take on unranked Western Michigan (0-3-1) at 3:35. The game can be heard on The River 96.7 FM, with pregame coverage beginning at 3:05 p.m.
The Gophers will host Missouri-Kansas City Thursday night before beginning their Big Ten schedule on Tuesday, December 15th with a game at #6 Illinois.
Erickson discusses calling the games from a remote location, how the Huskies have looked so far during their 3-0 start, which other teams look good to this point and more.
Hatten explains how things work in Omaha, what he thought of the first games of the season, the fast start by Micah Miller, which newcomers stood out and what he is looking forward to during his extended Omaha trip.
