We’ve had a great offseason, including:
Our 2018-19 season starts against Mercyhurst tonight (returning the favor from their visit for our 50th anniversary of The Slate 2 years ago). Key matchups in October against WMU and OSU. All of our goaltending and defense and most of our scoring returns this year. This is one of Bergeron's best teams on paper in his 9 years at BG. 28 years since our last trip to the dance. Hoping this season is as great as our offseason.
