(Candace Horgan)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Learning my lesson from the last time Denver faced a ranked Hockey East team paid off, as I gained another game in the picks race with Matthew by picking a DU sweep. Last week, I went 5-1-2 (.750), while Matthew was 4-2-2 (.625). On the year, I am now 53-39-15 (.565), while Matthew is 49-43-15 (.528).<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately for Matthew&#8217;s chances of catching me, we see eye to eye.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday-Saturday, Jan. 10-11<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Miami at Colorado College<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Candace:<\/strong> CC, after a decent start, has been more inconsistent of late. Miami got a big win over Bowling Green two weeks ago, and I think the RedHawks are better than their record. <strong>Colorado College 3-2, Miami 2-1<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Matthew:<\/strong> Here&#8217;s a series between a Miami team that we keep looking to see turn a corner and a CC squad that hasn&#8217;t been great at home this season. A sweep either way would be a surprise. <strong>Colorado College 3-2, Miami 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>St. Cloud State at No. 5 Denver<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Candace:<\/strong> St. Cloud is as mercurial as they come. They crushed Minnesota State and then promptly lost to the Gophers. Denver coach David Carle believes St. Cloud as a young team is getting better, and Denver is certainly vulnerable to a letdown after the emotional sweep of UMass, but I think Denver edges the Huskies here. <strong>Denver 3-2, 4-2<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Matthew:<\/strong> St. Cloud blowing Minnesota State up before New Year&#8217;s made everyone sit up and take notice of the Huskies after their iffy start to the season. Can they keep pushing ahead this weekend and get a win or two in Denver? I&#8217;m going to say no, which means they probably will in fact get something. <strong>Denver 3-2, 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Western Michigan at No. 9 Minnesota Duluth<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Candace:<\/strong> Western dropped below .500 last weekend. The Broncos have lost a lot of games to injury, and are definitely better than a .500 team. Minnesota Duluth has had the occasional letdown, but I think they are playing more solidly now, and the Broncos aren&#8217;t the best on the road even when healthy. <strong>Minnesota Duluth 3-2, 4-3<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Matthew:<\/strong> UMD was just about scoring for fun in December, and here they play at home against a Western Michigan team that&#8217;s 0-4-1 in its last five games. That&#8217;s all against ranked opposition, but still, give me the Bulldogs. <strong>Minnesota Duluth 4-2, 3-1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Omaha at No. 1 North Dakota<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Candace:<\/strong> Oh Omaha, how you&#8217;ve fallen since your good start. North Dakota, meanwhile is showing the form it had when it last won a national championship. North Dakota will lose another game at some point, and even lose at home this season, but like last weekend, I don&#8217;t see it happening this weekend, unless the curse of &#8220;unlucky 13&#8221; strikes Friday. <strong>North Dakota 4-2, 4-2<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Matthew:<\/strong> Omaha should have Isaiah Saville back in net, and North Dakota gets Jacob Bernard-Docker back. This should be a fun series, but it&#8217;s tough to go against UND at this point. <strong>North Dakota 3-1, 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learning my lesson from the last time Denver faced a ranked Hockey East team paid off, as I gained another game in the picks race with Matthew by picking a DU sweep.
