UConn men’s hockey is set for a two-game series with the Maine Black Bears this weekend on Friday, Feb. 26, and Saturday, Feb. 27, Hockey East announced Tuesday. Instead of a typical home-and-home series, both games will be played at Freitas Ice Forum with a 4:00 p.m. puck drop.
Maine is one of two teams that the Huskies have not faced this year, along with Vermont. The Black Bears have played the entire season on the road due to COVID regulations in their home state. They sit in ninth place in Hockey East with a 2-9-1 record. Maine took wins against Providence and Vermont but enter this weekend on a five-game losing streak.
