2020 was a rough year for restaurants and that’s putting it mildly.
The year started out with the usual ebbs and flows of a competitive dining industry. In Birmingham, for example, Pihakis Restaurant Group was preparing to eventually shutter its location of Mile-End Deli in the city’s downtown area and transition the building to another one of its concepts: a Hero Doughnuts & Buns.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. After splitting the series with No. 16 Notre Dame last weekend, No. 20 Sun Devil Hockey heads to University Park to take on Penn State (1-5-0) on BTN+. Friday s puck drop will be at 6 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. MT, while Sunday s matinee will be at 2 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. MT at Pegula Ice Arena.
The Sun Devils (3-4-1) look to continue their offensive onslaught which has produced 21 goals in the last four games against the Nittany Lions who are coming off a nine-goal performance against No. 7 Michigan.
The last time these two teams met was a historic moment for the Sun Devils, as then-sophomore Johnny Walker scored the overtime game-winner against the then-No. 6 Nittany Lions for the program s biggest victory to date.
