Here’s how the Broncos line up tonight. 
6:31
Falcons take the ice for warmups wearing their home set: White buckets and sweaters with brown pants. The Broncos wearing their all-black combination.
6:32
Bussi led his team out for warmups so it looks like he'll be their guy in the cage tonight.
6:50
Busy night here in the athletics district at BG. Volleyball and women's soccer have contests tonight. Wouldn't be surprised for a late-arriving crowd.
The team no longer has 7:37 starts on Fridays either.

GAME START: Anthem is over and the puck is down. Falcons skating left-to-right across your device to begin this game against Western Michigan.
7:09
First chance of the game for the Falcons comes on a broken three-on-two. They can't bury a fat rebound to begin the game's scoring though.
7:14
Falcons heading on the power play as Kruse takes a slash. Falcons thought they had a goal there by Craggs but the officials wave it off. Samuelsson is in the box for the Broncos.
7:18
Broncos kill the penalty. Don't think BG registered a shot on their chance.
7:19
Bafia is off for Western for a cross-check. Surprised this won't be a BG penalty as well after a scrum. Falcons getting the power play though.
7:20
Brickey for WMU and Craggs for BG head to the penalty box now. Still a five-on-four advantage for two minutes for the Falcons.
7:23
Broncos are back to full strength. The Falcons power play has sputtered here in the beginning of this one.
7:26
We're at the second media timeout of the first period. Broncos and Falcons are still scoreless with BG leading shots 10-1.
7:31
BGSU GOAL: Sam Craggs follows a rebound and gets it past Bussi. That's his first goal of the season if it holds up. Officials are discussing.
7:32
Officials now saying no goal because of an early whistle. Oof.
7:36
Final media timeout of the first period. Still a scoreless game between BG and WMU. Falcons have the shot advantage 12-2.
7:42

START OF 2nd PERIOD: Middle frame now underway with BG skating right-to-left across your device. WMU and BGSU are scoreless thus far.
8:02
Theocharidis is immediately ejected after a big hit with Wade Allison. No review necessary apparently. Allison is bleeding from the forehead.
8:03
Five-minute penalty kill coming up for Western Michigan. Calls are five for elbowing with a game misconduct.
8:03
Five minute power play coming up for WMU. Elbowing and game misconduct are the calls.
8:09
Samuelsson said the wrong thing to one of the referees and he immediately gets an unsportsmanlike penalty. That wipes out the last 1:12 of the Broncos' power play.
8:10
The Samuelsson penalty was a ten-minute misconduct. Broncos don't lose their power play.
8:11
Falcons back to full strength. We'll see if BG gets a momentum push from that.
8:12
Rome now heading off for checking from behind. Two-minute power play for the Falcons coming up.
8:15
Ring the bell for that save by Bussi. Swallows the attempt by Wright on the doorstop.
8:16
Boarding called on Bennett. Falcons getting 25 seconds of a five-on-three power play.
8:17
Another huge glove save by Bussi. The Bronco goaltender was a bit shaky in the first period with his rebound control. Looks locked in now.
8:19
Broncos back to full strength. Circle that one as a big missed opportunity for BG despite some good looks.
8:21
Dougherty is caught giving a jab to a Bronco and he'll serve a pair of minutes. Still scoreless halfway through the second period. Shots are 24-7 in favor of BG.
8:24
Falcons kill it. Still scoreless with 6:20 to play in the second period.
8:29
FInal media timeout of the second period. Still a scoreless tilt thus far with the Falcons leading the Broncos on shots 24-8.
8:34
Allison and Barber get into it after the whistle and referees send them to the box. Four-on-four coming up with 2:45 to play in the second period.
8:35
Ford draws a holding penalty from Brickey. The rare four-on-three power play coming up to Bussi's right.
8:38
BGSU GOAL: Freddy Letourneau re-directs a shot from TJ Lloyd to finally crack the scoreboard of this game.
8:41
END OF 2nd PERIOD: Thanks to Letourneau's power-play goal BG holds a 1-0 lead over WMU. Shots are 29-9 in favor of the Falcons.
