Denver, CO — The University of Denver Pioneers looked to win their ninth straight game to start the season in tonight’s meeting against the Lindenwood Lions. The two-game series this weekend is part of the 75th anniversary celebration of Denver’s hockey program which has won 10 National Championships, more than any other school. The two games will also wrap up non-conference play for the Pioneers with a difficult NCHC schedule ahead for the rest of the season.
