Boston College and Michigan State — two of the top teams in college hockey a year ago — are ripe for an early-season test with two head-to-head matchups on Friday and Saturday.
The Eagles fell just shy of winning the Frozen Four last season, falling in the title game to Denver, 2-0.
Meanwhile, the Spartans did not make it out of the quarterfinals, falling to Michigan.
This will be a new-look Boston College team, with standouts Cutter Gauthier and Will Smith both off to the NHL. But the Eagles return netminder Jacob Fowler and center Ryan Leonard, while welcoming in a talented freshman class, too.
Michigan State opened its season last weekend with a pair of victories over Lake Superior State. Isaac Howard scored three goals, while Daniel Russell notched two, including the game-winner in overtime in the season-opener.
