For the second consecutive season, your Canisius hockey team will host an opening round playoff series at the Buffalo State Sports Arena. A year ago, Canisius took advantage of the opportunity to advance all the way to the NCAA Tournament.
This year, the Griffs host Sacred Heart at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday night, and if necessary, Sunday night, as well. Similar to last season, Canisius earned the #7 seed. Sacred Heart is the #10 seed. The two teams split their two games series.
Tickets, as set by Atlantic Hockey, are $12.00 for adults and $5.00 for students and youth. To order tickets in advance and avoid the lines at the ticket table, please call 888-2885 by 3 p.m. on Friday.
Regardless of this weekend’s outcome, these games will be the final ones ever for Canisius at Buffalo State. The Griffs move into the HARBORCENTER next season.
