With a trip to Rochester on the line, it wasn’t surprising that Saturday night’s game between the Buffalo men’s ice hockey team and St. John Fisher got a little testy.
From fans heckling the St. John Fisher goaltender with chants of his name and making fun of his mother’s cooking, to even a fight between the two teams sprawling out on the ice, both teams battled in effort to move on to the National Collegiate Hockey Association Semifinals.
But in the end it was Buffalo’s speed and puck control that was the reason for the team advancing to the NCHA Semifinals in Rochester, New York.
