Mavericks Leading at the Break: With eight of the WCHA's 10 teams having played at least half of their 28-game league schedule, Minnesota State enters the season's second half atop the standings. The Mavericks hold a five-point lead over a trio of second-place teams in Bowling Green, Northern Michigan and Michigan Tech (against which MSU has four games in hand). The four front-runners have opened some distance in home ice race, with BGSU, NMU and MTU leading fifth-place Ferris State by nine points (MSU is 14 points ahead). Twenty-one (21) points separate the first-place Mavericks from ninth place. The current ninth-place team, Lake Superior State, is only five points out of a playoff spot, and just six back of sixth place. A Look at the Polls: Minnesota State, which is third nationally with 13 wins (second-most through 18 games in the Mike Hastings era), is ranked seventh in both the USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine polls. The Mavericks are sixth in the PairWise Rankings entering the second half, while Bowling Green is 18th. Good Luck, Grant!: First-year Northern Michigan head coach Grant Potulny will miss the Wildcats' next four games, while serving as an Assistant Coach for Team USA at the IIHF World Junior Championship in Buffalo, N.Y. This is Potulny's third tour as an assistant with the U.S. National Junior Team, after helping the Americans win gold at the 2013 and 2017 World Juniors. First-Half Notables: A look at some of the top WCHA trends from the first half of the 2017-18 season: Under Potulny, Northern Michigan (10-8-2 overall) reached 10 wins before Jan. 1 for the first time since 2005-06 (10-9-1) and double-digit victories before Christmas for the first time since 1999-2000 (13-4-1). Three seniors are among the NCAA's top-10 goal-scorers, while already setting career highs: NMU's Robbie Payne is second nationally with 15 lamp-lighters, while UAH's Josh Kestner and FSU's Mitch Maloney are tied for seventh with 12 apiece. A fourth skater, UAF redshirt-senior Justin Woods, is tied for tops among NCAA blue-liners with a career-best eight goals. MSU's Jake Jaremko is tied for second among NCAA rookies with 19 points (4g-15a), BGSU's Cameron Wright is tied for sixth with 15 (5g-10a) and UAF's Steven Jandric is tied for 14th with 14 (2g-12a). Scoring in WCHA league games increased by 4.7 percent in the first half, as compared to the pre-holiday break portion of the 2016-17 campaign, to an average of 5.57 goals per game (390 total in 70 games). Minnesota State is one of four teams to rank in the top-10 nationally for both scoring offense (third at 3.78 goals per game) and scoring defense (sixth at 2.17 goals allowed per contest), joining St. Cloud State, Cornell and Northeastern. THE WEEK AHEAD Nonconference Test: Bowling Green hosts No. 12 Western Michigan on Thursday night (Dec. 28), the first of potentially seven games against nonconference opponents for WCHA teams between Dec. 28 and Jan. 2. Two WCHA Series: Bemidji State hosts Alabama Huntsville, as the Beavers and Chargers -- currently tied for sixth place -- renew a long- standing rivalry. Nationally-ranked Minnesota State welcomes Northern Michigan, in a rematch of a series split Nov. 3-4 in Marquette. Three Rivers Classic: Lake Superior State represents the WCHA at the Three Rivers Classic at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, Pa. The Lakers face Robert Morris on Friday (Dec. 29), then play either Arizona State or No. 11 Providence on Saturday (Dec. 30). Great Lakes Invitational: The storied GLI moves to the brand-new Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. Michigan Tech, the GLI host school, plays Michigan State on Monday (Jan. 1), followed by Bowling Green vs. Michigan.

2017-18 WCHA preseAson polls

minnesoTA sTATe TAbbed As preseAson WCHA FAvoriTe

The program that owns the fourth-most wins nationally over the last five years is the heavy 2017-18 favorite in the men’s Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA), as Minnesota State sits atop both the Mankato Free Press WCHA Coaches’ and UAHHockey.com WCHA Media preseason polls.

Predictions on the final standings by coaches and media mirrored each other, led by a Mavericks team that has 122 victories since Mike Hastings took the reins prior to the 2012-13 season. Minnesota State, which also owns two MacNaughton Cups (2014-15 and 2015-16 as co-champs) and a pair of Broadmoor Trophies (2014 and 2015) in that span, received all nine possible first-place votes from coaches and 12 of 14 from the media.

Defending MacNaughton Cup champion Bemidji State received the other coaches’ first-place vote and is in second place in both poll. The Beavers are followed by reigning Broadmoor Trophy champion Michigan Tech (one media first-place vote) in third, Bowling Green (one media first-place vote) in fourth and Ferris State in fifth. The Huskies and Falcons – both on three-year runs of 20+ victories – are tied for ninth and tied for 13th nationally for wins since realignment, with 89 and 84, respectively. The Bulldogs are 18th with 80 victories in that span (Minnesota State is tied for fifth with 98).

Coaches and media also tabbed Lake Superior State (sixth place), Northern Michigan (seventh) and Alaska (eighth) to qualify for the WCHA Tournament, with Alabama Huntsville (ninth) and Alaska Anchorage (10th).

There was a tie among the league coaches for WCHA Preseason Player of the Year, as two Minnesota State players, sophomore forward Marc Michaelis and junior defenseman Daniel Brickley – the media’s pick – each received four coach votes apiece. Bemidji State senior goaltender Michael Bitzer, the 2016-17 Player of the Year, and Beavers’ senior forward Gerry Fitzgerald split the other two coach votes.

Michaelis, a native of Mannheim, Germany, was the WCHA Rookie of the Year, a first-team All-WCHA selection and the league’s top overall scorer last season with 36 points (14g-22a), tied for the seventh-best nationally by a first-year skater and the second-most by a Maverick freshman in the program’s Division I history. Brickley, from Sandy, Utah, was the league’s 2016-17 Defensive Player of the Year, a first-team All-WCHA pick and the WCHA’s top-scoring defenseman with 31 points (8g-23a), while his 1.00 points-per-game ranked second among NCAA blue-liners. The pair finished two-three in the WCHA scoring race during league play, posting 28 (13g-15a) and 26 (7g-19a) points, respectively.

Minnesota State freshman forward Jake Jaremko was the coaches’ choice for WCHA Preseason Rookie of the Year. The Nowthen, Minn. native, former Minnesota Mr. Hockey and 2017 Clark Cup (USHL) champion with the Chicago Steel (USHL) player was one of three Mavericks to appear on coaches’ ballots. The others were forward Reggie Lutz and defenseman Connor Mackey. Bemidji State forward Brendan Harris and Northern Michigan forward Joseph Nardi also received votes.

The coaches and media preseason All-WCHA Teams both featured Michaelis, Brickley and Bitzer. The Bemidji State netminder led the WCHA in all major goaltending categories last season and paced the country with a 1.71 goals-against average and six shutouts (tied), complementing a 22-14-3 record and .932 save percentage (20-5-2, .940 and 1.40 in league play).

Coaches teamed Michaelis with Bowling Green senior Mitch McLain and Minnesota State senior C.J. Suess, while the media tabbed McLain and Ferris State junior Corey Mackin. McLain was fourth overall and tied for fourth in WCHA play in scoring last season (17-16=33, 15-9=24), with Suess was fifth overall and tied for fourth in league action (12-19=31, 9-14=21). Mackin followed his 2015-16 WCHA Rookie of the Year campaign with a 26-point sophomore season (13g-13a), including 21 in league games (11g-10a).

Michigan Tech senior Mark Auk was the coaches’ other blue-line pick after posting 23 points overall last season and ranking 10th among all WCHA skaters with 18 assists (2-8=10 in league play). Alabama Huntsville junior Kurt Gosselin was the media’s choice, following a season in which he led league defensemen and with nine goals and tied for fourth with 18 points in just 24 WCHA games.
