HOUGHTON, Mich. -- The Bulldogs enter Houghton on a bizarre winning streak of sorts. UMD has won four straight WCHA road games dating back to a Nov. 21 win over Minnesota at Mariucci Arena.
This is bizarre to me for a couple reasons:
1. UMD has experienced plenty of struggles to win in both venues in recent years (Minnesota, Minnesota State).
2. UMD has only played four WCHA road games in a span of more than two months.
Six of the last eight are on the road, so if UMD is to earn home-ice advantage in the first round of the WCHA playoffs, they'll have to do it by getting points on the road.
Lines.
