Weekend Preview: Bears Back Home Friday; at West Bend Saturday
2018-12-07
The Bears return home for the first time in more than a month Friday night, then travel to West Bend Saturday with a rivalry showdown with the Bombers.
It's time...for a little home cooking!
After more than a month away, the Bears finally get to return to home ice this weekend.
Friday night will see the Bears get another shot at Marquette. The Mutineers handed the Bears a 7-3 loss one week ago in Marquette, and the Bears will be looking to counter-punch.
Following the brief one-game homestand, the team will head to West Bend Saturday night for their third matchup of the season with the defending league-champion Bombers.
Puck drop for both contests this weekend is 8 PM.
The Bears enter the weekend 2-4 overall and 0-3 in the GLHL, and will be looking to start their ascent from the basement of the standings.
