Mankato Free Press Breaks Down MSU-M vs DU

(above) Minnesota State has been on a roll recently since losing two games to DU earlier in the season

While the University of Denver hockey team may be confident after sweeping Minnesota State earlier in the season, the Mavericks have quietly gone 8-2-0 since that weekend. Victories against Minnesota (sweep) and Notre Dame prove that MSU-M will be no pushovers at home for the Pioneers.

The Mankato Free Press features five things to know about the series.
"Denver is a very, very good hockey team. If you’re not clicking on all cylinders, they’re going to beat anybody and everybody."
-Troy Jutting, Minnesota State Head Coach

OK, please don't laugh at this question too hard, this early in the morning....but is there any TV coverage whatsoever? Direct TV?

No TV or cable this weekend, but you can watch both games on the internet on Mankato State's Website via the B2 Network. There most likely will be a fee.

From Mike Chamber's blog in the Denver Post. Beau Bennett is traveling with the team and may play this weekend. Chris Knowlton is not making the trip. Jon Cook and Joey Brehm are traveling with the team and both will play forward if Bennett can't play. Sam Brittain will play goal on Friday and Adam Murray on Saturday.

$60/year for Pioneervision and about all we can get on away games is radio which you can get for free on the 87.7 site.

I have the game on B2live. I was listening to the pregame on 87.7 but they shut it down as soon as the game started. In order to listen to the game (in Evergreen) you have to get Pioneervision or get a better FM radio or antenna up here.
