 The wait is finally over as tonight the puck dropped on the beavers men's hockey season and what a better way to do it than with one of your biggest rivals as North Dakota came to town. A packed house to see the beavers and they did not disappoint. In the first period the beavers on the power play. Brendan Harris hits Adam Brady. He snipes one in from the slot. The beavers take a one to nothing lead but UND dominated the second period. Jordan Kawaguchi speeds ahead for a breakaway chance. Hank Johnson makes the save but tries to cover but he doesn't have it. Gabe Bass ends up tipping in the rebound. They tie it up at one but in the third period BSU working in the corner. J. Dickman finds Owen Sillinger wide open for the one-timer. He beats the goalie. That would be your game winner. BSU gets their fifth straight season opening win.
