HANOVER, N.H. — The Merrimack men’s hockey team will open the second half of the 2022-23 season tonight against Dartmouth at the Ledyard Bank Classic.

The tournament, which is hosted by Dartmouth, also features Yale and Providence. Merrimack’s opponent tomorrow will be determined by today’s results. The Warriors will play at 4 p.m. tomorrow regardless of their opponent.

Merrimack enters tonight’s game 13-4 on the season and last time out the Warriors beat Providence, 3-2, on Dec. 10. Dartmouth is 1-10-1 on the season, and the Big Green lost eight straight games heading into the break. Dartmouth’s lone win was on Nov. 4 against Yale.
