Greetings from Detroit and the Joe!
Penn State and Ohio State are a half hour away from puck drop. The big story in the early game is whether Taylor Holstrom makes his return to the Nittany Lions lineup. The redshirt senior, who has 33 points (6G-27A), has been out the last two series. At the time, head coach Guy Gadowsky said he was out for the year and that his return depends on how long the season goes.
We'll have an answer after warmups. (Update: He is in. Ricky DeRosa is the scratch.)
Follow Nate Wells (@gopherstate) and Mary Clarke (@marycclarke) on Twitter for live updates. The game is on BTN beginning at 4:30 pm ET/3:30 pm CT.
