 The BSU men's hockey team won only six games at the friendly confines of the Sanford Center last year but are off to a much better start this time around. The Beavers swept their opening home series against 15th ranked bowling green over the weekend and the wins gave the Beavers six points in the WCHA and this weekend they'll look to use that momentum as they hit the road for another conference series with Northern Michigan. I think just especially the first road series just set the tone you know in my experience being here a few years now just the years go by quick so you want to get those early points in the year because coming down the line everybody everybody needs to win so if you get the early ones I think it really helps. You know what to expect with the Wallace team they're gonna have good speed they're gonna be very good defensively they've got obviously they've got a good mix of they got a good mix of size they've got some really big guys you know like like Sammy Soman and they've got some undersized guys so they got you know a little variety right there so they can play a physical game they can play a speed-based game and they're very versatile from that standpoint.
