This Friday, the Pioneers will travel to Colorado Springs to take on in-state rival, the Colorado College Tigers.
The rematch will continue at home on March 7, as Denver's final game of the regular season, due to scheduling conflicts.
"We look at it as critical for us," Gwozdecky said. "Obviously one of our goals this year is to win the Gold Pan back, and in order to do that we have to win on Friday night. We want to be able to keep our national ranking and continue our position in the league."
In order to regain the Gold Pan Trophy, the Pioneers will need to win both games against CC, after tying 2-2 and losing 2-3 to them earlier in the season.
With just six games remaining in the regular season, Friday will be an especially critical game for the Tigers as they have faced a slump the second half of the season, falling from the No. 1 spot in the NCAA to No. 18.
DUPB will be taking 50 students to Friday's game. To RSVP for free bus and tickets, e-mail duvscc@gmail.com.
"These two teams have such a long historied rivalry to beat the other guy is most important," Gwozdecky said. "It doesn't matter what the records are, what the rankings are, what the positioning is, I think that will continue this Friday night. The Gold Pan is at stake."
