In the world of college hockey, experience is a critical component of any team's success in a given season.
As St. Cloud State looks ahead to the upcoming season, the return of 22 players and four of team's top five point producers from 2008-09 certainly bode well for the team's success during the winter of 2009-10.
Bob Motzko marks his fifth season as head coach with the Huskies in 2009-10. The 2006 and 2007 WCHA Coach of the Year, Motzko has guided the Huskies to three WCHA Final Five appearances (2006, 2007 and 2008), and two NCAA Division I tournament appearances in 2007 and 2008.
