After some 45 memorable seasons of occupancy, the University of Minnesota Duluth will bid the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center a fond farewell this Friday and Saturday when the Bulldogs host the University of Denver in a pair of Western Collegiate Hockey Association showdowns. Both games can be seen live on Channel 9 (Duluth) at 6 pm (MST).
The Bulldogs are ranked #1 in the country and are in first place in the WCHA while Denver is second in league play.

I am surprised that d-man Dave Langevin who starred at UMD in the early to mid 1970s and won 4 Stanley Cups with the NY Islanders is not on the All-DECC Team.
HOw's the video on B2? Worth the purchase?
Video on B2 is OK when it is all you have. Sometimes, they make you wait a few minutes as everything gets put together but I'll be watching it on B2 unless I find another option. I was surprised too that Langevin wasn't on the list along with Murray Keogan and Jerome Mrazek. Looking forward to the games this weekend. Pepper Cheeseburgers at stake at the Pickwick in Duluth on the line this weekend with the side bets with family.
