This week’s Panthers at Home is all hockey all the time, as both UPEI men’s and women’s hockey teams host games.

The men’s team plays a rare mid-week home game on Wednesday night at 7 pm against Université de Moncton.

“It is another big game for us,” said head coach Forbes MacPherson. “We are looking to rebound after a disappointing game against Acadia last weekend. It is always great to have a mid-week game to get right back into competition and push for a better outcome.”

On Friday night the women’s team takes to the ice against Mount Allison University. The puck drops at 7 pm.

“Mount A is working hard and is very well coached,” said head coach Bruce Donaldson. “We look for our penalty kill to continue with success, while our power play needs some work. We seem to be getting some zone time but not finishing on our opportunities. Our systems continue to develop, but we need to incorporate them in a full 60-minute effort.”

The weekend wraps up with a Saturday night home game for UPEI Men’s Hockey. They host UNB at 7 pm.
