Jay Fruzia and the changeover crew got it done with a few minutes to spare after Fairfield’s win today. Lot of dirt under all that fiberboard, but a sweep and a couple of dry scrapes before the flood look like it got it done.
Christopher Gibson’s good to go. Steve Bernier and Kellen Jones return. Eamon McAdam sticks around, but Kristers Gudlevskis backs up tonight. Schempp on the wing with the Holmstrom brothers.
Matt Beleskey returns for the Bruins but Austin Czarnik sits out, precautionary, reports Mark Divver. Jordan Binnington after Zane McIntyre pitched the shutout last night in what sounded like a good one.
