Lindenwood and Post University open their 2025 campaigns Friday at 4:30 PM EDT in Shelton, both sitting at 0-0 and hungry for an early statement. Season openers carry a unique electricity — every shift is a fresh start, every line combination a new possibility, and neither side carries the weight of a result yet.
The Lions and Eagles each bring a blank slate and a roster eager to define its identity from puck drop. Opening weekend is where depth gets tested, special teams set their tone, and a freshman can announce herself on the national stage before anyone sees it coming.
This is the kind of afternoon game that rewards the die-hards — two teams with everything to prove and nothing to lose. If you love college hockey, you tune in for the first chapter.
