Well, if I'd known there'd be this much discussion on this topic...I would have
come in to work yesterday! ;-)
Anyway, back to my original statement that stated that I was glad to see that
Craig Dahl had chosen a majority of Minnesota boys in his recruiting this year.
The reason that I brought this up was that the arena that was built for St.
Cloud, due mostly to the efforts of former SCSU coach Herb Brooks, was built
with money FROM THE STATE (and it's taxpayers!). It was seen as another outlet
for hockey players in Minnesota who wanted to play Div. I hockey. Dahl has been
severely criticized by the media and some coaches, for not going after more of
the in-state talent. That's why I was glad to see he had gone with more
Minnesota talent than he has in the past few years. I hope that this continues.
