Host UBC in Battle for Playoff Position Manitoba hosts first conference games of second half |
January 22 - The Manitoba Bison men’s hockey team returns home to host their first conference games for the second half of the 2007-08 season. The Herd is seeking the first victories of 2008 when they skate against the UBC Thunderbirds (11-11-0) on Friday, January 25 and Saturday, January 26 at 7 p.m. at Max Bell Arena. Manitoba is in a tight battle with UBC in the Canada West standings. The Bisons are three points back of the T-Birds (with two games in hand) and fighting to climb back up the conference standing. UBC sits in fourth while Manitoba is fifth and there is only six points that separates third place Calgary with sixth place Regina in the highly competitive Canada West. The Herd looks to extend their winning streak against UBC as they swept them earlier this season. On the road, Manitoba won 4-3 on Nov. 2/07 and 3-2 on Nov. 3/07. In the conference season, Manitoba is fifth in goals at 60 and fourth in goals against with 71. The Bisons are sixth with 511 conference shots (25.5 avg.) and tied for third with one shutout.
