Last Saturday, the then-No. 1-ranked University of Denver hockey team was greeted by the first Kohl Center sellout of the season, losing 4-3 at Wisconsin before a relatively good-natured gathering of 15,237.

The Badgers' lively student section undoubtedly made it a difficult place to play for the Pioneers. But the atmosphere in Madison will be considered tame compared with the expected antics that will unfold this weekend against North Dakota in Grand Forks. (read rest of article)

Let me be crystal-clear: Denver IS the better hockey team. Don't think DU isn't capable of sweeping these guys again. It will be interesting to see how Denver rebounds from the UW loss. Play smart, work for 60 minutes and play your game - not thiers!

you do realize that both games in Denver were very close and if the refs hadn't given your team such favorable calls, it probably would have ended up being a split. I did talk to someone in the know and the refs were suspended from that series. I don't care what the beat writers said, it happened. did cause the refs from that series to get suspended...

Its always great when fans of 6th place WCHA teams come on here and talk smack. Lets face it, UND sucks this year and there's not going to be any late season heroics.

Comparing UND to Wisconsin is like comparing Tiger Woods to Jack Nicklaus. One has class one doesn't.
