I spoke at length with Indiana goaltender Alex Kyrias last night, and he's
pretty excited about the upcoming season.  The Hoosiers finished 3rd in
the 6-team MCHL tourney last year and hope to improve on that showing
this time around...they return the nucleus of a strong team.  There is no
automatic bid to the ACHA nationals due to the amount of teams in the
MCHL.  MSU won the league title last year, but graduate much.  IU returns
Kyrias, Cap. Jim Viscardi, Winger Derek Perkins, among others.  Here's
the home portion of the schedule that Kyrais relayed on to me last night.
