Dozens, nay, hundreds…heck, maybe thousands of former Mac’s players (both male and female) have gone on to compete in the NCAA and professional hockey leagues around the world. We don’t have the exact number, but we’re not here to do math, we’re here to tell you about hockey!
Dozens of games are popping off at the Max Bell, Flames Community, and Father David Bauer Arenas, and the nightly feature games host crowds of nearly 3,000 spectators. Grab a couple of ice cold beers, snag a hot dog or plate of nachos before the 2019 health resolutions get started, and enjoy some good old-fashioned stick-puck.
