A few things from this morning's Freep that didn't get on the website: Kael Mouillierat will be back in the lineup tonight after missing the last five games with injury. Andy Sackrison also skated this week and, if cleared, could return after sitting out the last three games. However, Jerad Stewart, who has been playing some of the best hockey of his career of late, is out for the St. Cloud State series and possibly longer after suffering a leg injury last Saturday at Bowling Green. He tried to skate in practice this week but apparently wasn't able to make it work. Coach Troy Jutting said the Mavericks have yet to have their full roster available to them this season.
Meanwhile, defenseman Kurt Davis is off to a fantastic start. His 20 points, as well as his overall play through a little less than a season and a half have impressed teammates and coaches alike.
As for the Mavericks' opponent this weekend, the St. Cloud Times talked to the the series' two hardest workers, the Huskies' Michael Olson and the Mavericks' Trevor Bruess.
Around the rest of the WCHA, Colorado College is hoping to spread the scoring throughout its lineup, something, its opponent, Minnesota Duluth, has been doing. ... The Grand Forks Herald explored the horrors of dealing with a concussion. ... Wisconsin will face Alaska-Anchorage this weekend, and the Badgers have a solid group of defensemen but are also finding balance up front. ... The 15th-ranked Seawolves have been no slouch on the road this season, though. ... If Michigan Tech is going to snap a nine-game winless streak, it will have to do it against No. 8 Denver.
Here are the USCHO, INCH and This is the WCHA previews.
