The Broncos had a massive series this past weekend as they welcomed the fourth-ranked Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs to town. This matchup also kicked off the NCHC conference season for the Broncos.
Friday night’s game was a back and forth affair with neither team able to break away. The Broncos jumped out to a 2-0 lead in front of their hometown Lawson Lunatics, but UMD rallied to tie it back up at 2-2. The teams would once again trade goals and took a 3-3 tie late into the third period. Ethen Frank took a pass from Drew Worrad with under two minutes to play and slipped it into the back of the net to give the Broncos the 4-3 lead and eventually the win.
