Series Preview: Omaha at St. Cloud State, Dec. 7-8, 2018


UNO Hockey faces another tough test this weekend as they travel to Minnesota to face St. Cloud State on Dec. 7-8.

The Mavs are 4-8-2 overall and 2-3-1-1 in the NCHC. The Huskies are at the top of the NCHC standings and are 4-0-2-1 in conference play and 11-1-2 overall.

Coach Gabinet may not be behind the bench for the Mavs this week due to a family emergency, so Coach Jerrard filled in at the Tuesday Weekly Media Availability. 

Saturday night is also the Teddy Bear Toss.

The Mavs received some conference love this week, with two players being named to "Players of the Month" honors: Mason Morelli as Player of the Month and Taylor Ward as Rookie of the Month.

Radio/TV Coverage:

Radio: Both games will be broadcast live on 1180 AM (Zone 2). Dave Ahlers will provide play-by-play and Terry Leahy will give color commentary. 

TV: Both games will be streamed on NCHC.tv ($). Friday's game will be on Fox Sports North+ while Saturday's game will be on FSN. 

From Mike Jaixen's post in the MavPuck Group on Facebook:
Fox Sports Midwest will be picking up the FS North feed of this weekend's UNO at St. Cloud State series. Due to NBA and NHL coverage, Friday night's game will be on FSMW+, their overflow channel. CenturyLink Prism customers can see Friday night's game on channel 1749, while Dish Network will have it on channel 650. I'm pretty sure that DirecTV will have it somewhere, but their online guide doesn't indicate where. AFAIK, Cox does not carry FSMW+.


Saturday night's 6 pm game is scheduled to be on the regular FS Midwest channel.

Another fan chimed in that if you have the DISH sports package, it's on 412-38.
