Game 28: Bemidji State at UMD

Three months to the date of a bizarre power outage that postponed the season opener between these two teams, the Bulldogs are finally set to host the Bemidji State Beavers. Both teams are playing well. UMD has won three straight, and Bemidji is 6-2-2 in its last ten games. Records are identical at 11-11-5 overall.

Some news:

UMD senior forward Austin Farley is out for this game with an undisclosed injury. I've been told the hope is to get him healthy for the North Dakota trip. Also out injured are freshman forward Parker Mackay and junior defenseman Dan Molenaar. I don't know the seriousness of either injury at this point, but the bye week is definitely not coming at a bad time.

Junior blue-liner Brenden Kotyk is suspended for this game, but junior Willie Raskob has been deemed sufficiently recovered from an upper body injury and will play.
