Michigan @ Colorado College
Last weekend the Broncos swept the RedHawks
(5-2, 3-2) in Oxford and the Tigers tied and lost to the Bulldogs (2-2SOL,
2-1L) in Duluth.
The Broncos have been hot in 2014 and the
Tigers are not, need I say more? Okay,
I’ll add a little more, WMU schedule this year, 2014, has them already beating
the RedHawks four times, so that helps.
The Broncos need another sweep this weekend, since their schedule gets
tougher, UNO, DU, and UND to end the season.
Speaking of ending the season, I bet the Tigers wish this season was
already behind them. BRONCOS SWEEP
Last weekend the Bulldogs swept the Tigers (2-2SOW, 2-1W) in Duluth and the Huskies split with the Pioneers (2-2SOL, 4-2W) in St. Cloud.
This is the series of the weekend, in my
opinion, since it the battle for the top spot in the league. If SCSU can sweep at the NHC, they will have
good gap over the Bulldogs with three weeks to go. And the Huskies have a schedule advantage
down the stretch. They play Miami, UND,
and CC to end the season, and two of those teams are less than good. The Bulldogs need to pull some points out of
the Huskies if they want a shot at the first NCHC title. Back in early December the Huskies swept the
Bulldogs in Duluth; don’t see why they can’t do it again. HUSKIES SWEEP

Denver @ Nebraska-Omaha
Last weekend the Pioneers split with the
Huskies (2-2SOW, 4-2L) in St. Cloud and the Mavericks split with NoDak (4-2L,
6-3W) in Grand Forks.
The Mavericks have split their last two series
and appear to be heading in the right direction, late in the season. The Pioneers have split their last few series
too, and depending on how you want to figure they have been splitting
everything the last two months. Being
only separated by a point in the standings and both teams are doing fine as of
late, I don’t see a sweep in this series.

#18 North Dakota
Last weekend the RedHawks were swept by the
Broncos (5-2, 3-2) in Oxford and NoDak split with the Mavericks (4-2W, 6-3L) in
Grand Forks.
NoDak has split its last two series with teams
that are right next to them in the standings.
And now the struggling RedHawks come to Grand Forks this weekend. NoDak needs points this weekend to keep its
place in the standings. Their schedule
gets tough after this weekend, they go on the road to UMD and SCSU, and host
WMU to end the season. NODAK SWEEP
