Ferris and Bowing Green should be the first two weeks after the pre-season exhibition. That's become a regular staple. Ferris is opening weekend for sure. I recall reading that that was a specific clause in the contract once they hooked up again after not playing each other the first couple years post-realignment.
I could actually see WMU pushing BGSU back a couple weeks in order to fit in with somebody else's slots, such as an ECAC team. But I doubt it. My guess is Michigan will probably be the week after the BGSU series (or two, depending on if Western takes a Bye week)
I'm curious who the last series is though. Personally, I'm hoping we can get a Hockey East team to come to Lawson for once. Our best chance at that is UMass or maybe Maine. Wishful thinking, for sure.
