Not sure why it is an exhibition? I guess if you lose you won't count it?? Doesn't make sense when games vs. WSC and DCB games aren't exhibitions. If it is not a game then not sure why we are playing.

This may just be an exhibition, but it's against U-Mary. That is reason enough to be at the Maysa at 7:30 PM to watch the puck drop against our rivals & score yourself a Beat U-Mary tshirt!
