Re: Exhibition Games 9/23-9/25
Penn State plays their exhibition game today at 4:00 PM against the University of Guelph. It will be interesting, with the shortest bench Penn State has had since they started D-1 hockey (21 players total, counting the two goalies).
8 freshmen get their first taste of D-1 hockey today, and most of them should be seeing a lot of ice time this season. 19 total players (minus the 2 goalies), and 2 new assistant coaches, but 4 of the top 6 scorers return this season. 10 of the 21 players are from Minnesota, including 5 from Minnetonka.
As it is every season, it will be fun to get a first look at the freshmen, but it will be interesting to see how these 2 new coaches work the bench, too.
