The Huskies will kick off their campaign on Saturday, Oct. 5 with a home exhibition against Minnesota before officially beginning the regular season on the road on Sunday, Oct. 6 against St. Thomas.

Additionally, student ice side reporter Olivia Stephes and in-studio host Noah Grant will be joining the duo for all broadcasts.
"Jim Erickson truly is the voice of Husky Hockey," said Husky Productions Executive Producer Brian Stanley. "Jim has been calling Husky Hockey on radio for the past eight seasons. His knowledge of the team and call of the action is second to none."
Erickson has been the radio voice of the Huskies since 2016-17 and the TV play-by-play announcer for the famous Boys Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament since 2015 (class A since 2012). He will continue to provide play-by-play for the Huskies away radio broadcasts on KNSI (1540 AM / 99.3 FM) and will continue hosting The Brett Larson Show every Monday following a game weekend at Green Mill throughout the season. This season's first show is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 14 at 6:00 p.m. following the team's home-and-home series with Bemidji State.
"I am really looking forward to working with the Husky Productions crew and being a part of the broadcasts on Fox 9 +," said Jim Erickson. "When you include NCHC.tv, the reach of those broadcasts is nationwide. It will be a thrill to be able to bring the action to all Husky Hockey fans across the country."
"We are humbled and honored to have an announcer of Jim's caliber on our home game TV broadcasts," said Stanley.
Joining Jim and Geno will be student broadcasters Olivia Stephes and Noah Grant, who are both in their second year with HP.
"I couldn't be more excited to bring Husky Hockey to the most amazing fans in the country, said Noah Grant. "I chose St. Cloud State in hopes to someday cover this team on the Husky Productions broadcast. This is a dream come true."
