DU coach George Gwozdecky hasn’t paid attention to his record in St. Paul (6-1, 6-0 at the WCHA Final Five) or against Wisconsin (4-0 this season). The only numbers he’s concerned with is four _ the amount of centers he’ll need to field a lineup.
DU lost junior center Tyler Ruegsegger to a season-ending knee injury last Friday in the league playoff opener against Alaska-Anchorage, and sophomore center Jesse Martin went down late in Saturday’s game with a lower-body injury. Gwozdecky said Monday that Martin, who had a goal in each game against the Seawolves, is questionable for Friday and won’t try to practice until Wednesday in St. Paul.
The Pioneers have played the past 18 games without star sophomore center Tyler Bozak, who is scheduled to return in about 10 days when DU begins the NCAA Tournament.

DU has concerns at the Center Position. (edit)
DU coach George Gwozdecky has a couple concerns at the center ice position; meaning he is missing two of his top centers to knee injuries. 1.) Tyler Bozek (7-14-21) has been after having knee surgery in December, Bozek was injured he was one of the top forwards in the WCHA and in my opinion would've had a good chance of finishing with the WCHA scoring title. Bozek was also a +14 when he was hurt. 2.) Tyler Ruegsegger (15-11-26) had a season ending injury last weekend against UAA. EDIT-According to Brad's blog Denver forward Jesse Martin is "questionable for this weekend. Stay tuned.
