 Hockey Day Minnesota is just four days away. It's a once-in-a-lifetime memorable experience. That is, except, of course, for some of the BSU players who have already gotten a taste of the outdoor action. Defenseman Tommy Muck played in Hockey Day Minnesota on Lake Bokegama when he was a junior at Eagan. And J. Dickman played in two hockey days for St. Paul, Joseph, including the inaugural event in 2007. They're preparing their teammates as to how to stay warm and also how much fun the event will be. Growing up playing high school hockey in Minnesota, just the buzz that goes around when it's Hockey Day weekend, it's gotten bigger and bigger as the years have gone on. And I'm just, you know, I know I'm excited I'm in Minnesota and so how can you not be excited? You look at that atmosphere when we had that and it was just crazy. They had a bunch of different rinks there. We were playing on one side while we were playing and, you know, it was just a blast for us.
