Hockey is back.

The Alaska Anchorage Seawolves host the Kendall Hockey Classic at the Sully this weekend. Friday night has the Minnesota Golden Gophers taking on the home team Seapuppies at 7:07pm. The Curator and I will be in attendance.

Gopher goaltender Eric Schierhorn returns home to Anchorage for the first time since middle school.

Minnesota coach Don Lucia is also on a return visit. Lucia’s first head coaching gig was with Alaska-Fairbanks from 1987-93. He was also an assistant coach with both UAA and UAF prior to those years.

MN vs UAA: That’s 7pm ADT/10pm CDT.
