Big Ten hockey is back for the 2020-21 season, and could start as soon as Nov. 13, the conference office announced Tuesday.
The season will consist of a 24-game schedule against other member schools, with each Big Ten team having additional four games to host Arizona State University, who play without belonging to a conference. The season will end at approximately the same date as usual, with the Big Ten Tournament slated for March 18-20.
Gophers head coach Bob Motzko said his team couldn’t wait to drop the puck on the team’s 100th season.
“Now we finally have a good idea of when we’ll be playing, and I have no doubt that the team will be ready to go when the time comes,” he said in a press release.
