    Bemidji State breaks out for win
    Bemidji State breaks out for win

    Just what you least expected. Not only did UNO get into a high-scoring affair with Bemidji State, it was the low-scoring Beavers who emerged with a 6-4 victory Saturday night before 6,878 at CenturyLink Center, capping a series in which UNO managed to pick up only one point against a team that has become its nemesis.

    At this time of year, it's one point at a time. So even though UNO managed only a 1-1 tie with Bemidji State in front of 9,079 Friday night at CenturyLink Center, the fact that it came on a clutch goal from Bryce Aneloski with 3:40 to go in regulation left the Mavericks feeling pretty solid about the result.

The Mavericks, 12-10-4 overall, are sixth in the WCHA standings with 21 points (9-6-3), but they've played two fewer games than fifth-place North Dakota and are only two points out of third. Into the CenturyLink Center for games at 7:37 p.m. Friday and 7:07 p.m. Saturday comes 10th-place Bemidji State (12-12-2 overall, 6-10-2 WCHA), the team that bedeviled the Mavs last season and managed to steal a point from them when the teams played a...

    Ryan Massa and Josh Archibald are back and Andrej Sustr is close. As UNO continues to prepare for its weekend WCHA series with Bemidji State, it's possible that Massa could return as the Mavericks' goaltender after suffering a concussion Jan. 20 at Minnesota State-Mankato and sitting out the following game, coach Dean Blais said.

But when the Mavericks went on the road and had last-place Minnesota State-Mankato put another 83 shots on goal in another split ... that meant it was time for UNO to go back to work.

He hasn't gotten another since. "It's definitely been a while," Broadhurst said. "It's hard to say that I'm not thinking about it, but I'm going to have to keep sticking with it."

Archibald, you're in. ... And you're centering the top line. "It was kind of a shock," said Josh Archibald, one of the top freshman wingers in the WCHA. "I figured (Jayson) Megna, playing center all year, would get put up on the first line. But I guess they wanted to spread things out."
