Friday Morning Skate

The No. 3 Mavericks are in Big Rapids, Mich., to take on Ferris State and start a four-game road swing. This is part of a stretch of 10 games in which eight games are away from Mankato. Minnesota State has played well on the road, going 8-2-0, and is hoping to keep that up in the Bulldogs' "unique" arena.
