Home‑Ice Surge in January
January 2027 will see the Lions enjoy a six‑game stretch on their own rink, beginning with a matchup against Minnesota State Mankato on January 2 and 3, a sequence that underscores the program’s emphasis on building momentum at home.
The regular season’s final home series is slated for February 12 and 13, when Penn State visits St. Charles, Missouri, providing a high‑stakes conclusion before the postseason.
