The Wolverines will play three games in six days before taking a full seven day break before returning to the ice on Wednesday January 17th.
Lets look at the slate of games:
OCN @ Waywayseecappo – January 4th 2024 7:30pm
The Wolverines take on the OCN Blizzard, which will be both team’s first games back since facing off on December 19th.

WPG Freeze @ Waywayseecappo – January 9th 7:30pm
