STORRS, Conn. – Continuing their Hockey East slate, the UConn women's hockey team looks to snap a three-game skid as it welcomes the Maine Black Bears to Freitas Ice Forum for a weekend home series. Friday's matchup is scheduled for a 6:00 pm puck drop, with the series finale taking place Saturday afternoon at 3:00 pm.
Friday is also our Skating Strides game – Following the conclusion of the match, fans will be able to get their posters signed and also have the opportunity hop on the ice and skate with the team.
Additionally our 2019-20 pink and blue UConn hockey hats will be available for purchase for $10, with all proceeds going to UConn Health. This year, we have raised over $6000 so far.
Hockey East has partnered with CBS Sports Digital to begin the 2019-20 season, making all home men's and women's games available on CBS Sports Digital properties. The partnership kicks off with an early-season schedule that includes games provided for free on CBS SportsLive.
