CCHA Media All-Rookie Team drops today as we start CCHA Media Award Week.

Michigan Tech (Game 2)

After adding former Lindenwood defenseman Joe Prouty, new head coach Bill Muckalt has made yet another addition from his old program, securing a commitment from Prouty’s defensive partner, Jack Anderson.  Anderson possesses the kind of physical tools that coaches, scouts, and GMs dream of having in their lineups. Standing at 6’6” and being a plus skater, Anderson has a rare blend of length and mobility that allows him to eat up ice in transition and cover ground seamlessly.

Houghton, MI (June 4, 2025) - The following statement has been released today by Tech Hockey Guide with regards to Isaac Gordon’s future career plans: “He’s back.” Isaac Gordon has reneged on his commitment to the University of North Dakota and will instead withdraw from the transfer portal and return to Michigan Tech this fall. This is monumental news for Michigan Tech hockey.

The Huskies have secured their first commitment of the Bill Muckalt era. Former Lindenwood goaltender Owen Bartoszkiewicz, a Michigan native, has entered the transfer portal and according to his Instagram profile he will be following his coach to Michigan Tech. Now, given the state of Michigan Tech’s goaltending room it may come as a surprise that Muckalt’s first piece of business is to secure yet another goaltender.

Last Thursday, Michigan Tech shocked the college hockey world by announcing Bill Muckalt as the 23rd Head Coach of the Huskies in the same press release that announced Joe Shawhan being removed from the post he's manned for the last 8 years. It was the best kept secret in hockey that Dr. Suzanne Sanregret was in the process of replacing Shawhan.

Yesterday, we learned the shocking news that Joe Shawhan is out as head coach of the Huskies after eight seasons. In the same release we learned that Michigan Tech had replaced Coach Shawhan with former assistant Bill Muckalt. This morning, Michigan Tech was kind enough to provide us with the new contract with Muckalt. We'll start with the Salary. Muckalt is the highest paid coach the Huskies have ever had, starting at $315,000 this year and growing $5k per year until it reaches $335k for the 2029-30 season.

The Michigan Tech athletic department pulled off something of a miracle Thursday morning: they made a drastic personnel announcement without a single member of our notoriously nosy staff hearing a peep about it. After eight seasons at the helm of Huskies hockey, Michigan Tech has parted ways with head coach Joe Shawhan. He leaves Michigan Tech as the institution's second-winningest coach of all time (154-120-29), behind only the immortal John MacInnes (555–295–39).
