My weekly visit to the Icers' practice saw an unbeat but focused squad as they hit the ice in preparation for this weekend's home-and-home series with West Chester.
I caught up with one of the Pittsburghers on the team - Chris Cerutti - who notched a goal and three assists in the weekend sweep of the Robert Morris Colonials.
Chris recorded his 100th career point and fellow Burgher Tim O'Brien scored his 100th goal in an Icers uniform.
As Chris told me, they know they have to keep the intensity level up this weekend, especially Friday night at the Ice Line. It's been a rough spot for the Icers over the years, but they exorcised the demons with a 10-3 victory back in November. However, this is a new Golden Rams team, with nine new players on the roster.
Assistant coach Josh Hand will take over for the next three weeks as Scott Balboni, Tim O'Brien and Eric Steinour leave for the World University Games in Turkey.
With Taylor Cera out with a shoulder separation, some guys are going to have to step up and provide a little sandpaper and some scoring.
