The #5 Denver Pioneers will look to continue their recent dominance against Nebraska-Omaha this weekend when the 15th-ranked Mavericks come into Magness Arena for a weekend series. DU has not lost in the teams’ last 10 matchups going back to 2015 and hasn’t been defeated at home since 2013. The series will be the only games between the teams in the regular season.
While the Pioneers should be plenty rested coming off a bye weekend, the Mavericks will enter the weekend playing their best hockey of the season. UNO is 6-2 in in its last eight games, all coming against ranked opponents.
