The StFX men’s hockey team returns to home ice in search of their first win of the 2018-19 AUS season.
They host the Acadia Axemen.
The X-Men (0-1-2) have three losses to start the season; Acadia (1-1-0) has split their first two games.
Brad Peddle, the head coach of StFX, tells The Hawk it’s not the start they wanted, but they’ve had close games.
“We’ve lost three one-goal games- (one) in a shootout, one in overtime, and a tough one, 3-2 last Friday on the road,” he says. “All close games that, quite honestly, could have gone the other way quite easily where we could be sitting here at 3-0.”
It’s the second game of the season between the teams- Acadia slipped by StFX 2-1 in overtime in Wolfville in September.
