Can anyone explain the home and home with Saint Cloud?

Friday there, Saturday home. Its not like there is a lot of travel, but why not 2 there and two at a late date here. It makes the series seem like pandering to the fans or an exhibiton. I don't like it, but I don't like Saint Cloud much either. Go Gophers!

St. Cloud has always been a home & home for some reason.

With the number of Gopher fans that travel up there, you can just consider it four home games for the good guys.

I can't imagine we would stay overnight in St. Cloud or that they would stay in the Cities if they played 2 here and 2 there, so it doesn't affect travel costs one way or the other (we travel there and back once in two different weekends instead of twice the same weekend), and it gives the game a bit of a different feel than a two game series played at the same arena.

No hotels necessary.

They do it to cut expenses.
