You want answers?!?!?

This is long overdue: It's time for your favorite PucKato segment: You. Want. Answers?!?!?

You know the drill: Ask a question in the comments section below, and I'll answer them. Questions can be but are not limited to Minnesota State hockey.

You have two days to ask questions, and I'll answer them on Friday afternoon sometime.

Unfortunately, I will not be traveling to Houghton, Mich., this weekend since, like the Mavs, the Freep is a little short-handed back in Mankato. I'll be covering a few other things but will try to keep a close eye on MSU's series against Michigan Tech.

So ... ask away!

How much do you think playing in an inferior WCHA (in terms of big name schools and programs) is going to kill MSU recruiting? That's my biggest worry, outside of even more lackluster fan support.

I follow Chris Heisenberg's recruiting page and have noticed the Mavs haven't received any verbal commitments in what seems like quite awhile. Could just be a coincidence.

Staying on the subject of recruiting, what are the chances a guy like Teddy Bluegar (2012 or '13 recruit) reconsiders his options with the new leagues forming right around the time he'll be starting his college career?

Who does the scheduling for the WCHA? Don't they have to check with schools about potential conflicts at the school, such as basketball or wrestling? It seems strange that all but one conference game for both basketball and men's hockey takes place on the same night, making it impossible to go to both. So much for loyalty from the league that MSU has given to them.

I'm with Sam. I wonder about the quality of recruits. Also if we ever decide not to renew Jutts contract what kind of coaching prospects can we hope for?

Why does it seem like the current administration doesn't care about hockey? With it being the only sport operating in the black, you would think they could put more resources to making sure it can compete with the 'big' schools and maybe tried harder to get into the future NCHC instead of settling for the 'new' WCHA.

St. Cloud and Duluth, both DII schools, have had success in DI hockey. What are they doing differently than MSU and what can MSU learn from them?

so, is Huntsville coming back? New donors came forward?

On the topic of recruiting can we get updates or interviews with our current commits? Do you know any possible kids the Mavericks are looking at for 2013? Thanks
