The StFX men’s hockey team will try to move ahead in their AUS semi-final series when they visit the Acadia Axemen.
Acadia won the series opener 4-2 in Antigonish Thursday night; the X-Men evened the best-of-five series at one with a 3-0 win on home ice Friday night.
Brad Peddle, the head coach of StFX, tells The Hawk they’re ready for a battle in game three.
“This team is a physical team, so they like to play that way, and we don’t mind that either- we’ve just got to make sure we stay in control of our emotions,” he says. “I know our guys like to play on that big ice down there in Acadia, so we’ll be looking forward to it.”
Game time is 7 p.m.
Whoever wins will have a chance to advance to the AUS final, against the winner of the UNB/Saint Mary’s semi-final series, with a win in game four Monday night.
