Not just because the Pioneers had finished as the lower seed in the NCHC standings, but more so because the team only had nine healthy forward and a converted defenseman to comprise their lines.<\/p>\n<p>By the time the game was over, though, Denver, behind two goals by Mike Benning and a goal and assist by Bobby Brink overcame a 3-1 deficit and knocked off the Mavericks, 5-4, to advance to the NCHC semifinals.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">That&#39;s some &quot;forward&quot; thinking from Bo Hanson ? <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PioneerTogether?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#PioneerTogether<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jrXXViHhPs\">pic.twitter.com\/jrXXViHhPs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Denver Hockey (@DU_Hockey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DU_Hockey\/status\/1370874390737522689?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 13, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The Pioneers held leads of 1-0 and 4-3, but it was three goals in a span of just under 20 minutes from Jason Smallidge, Matt Miller and Tyler Weiss put Denver in a dangerously difficult hole in the second period, particularly considering the short bench.<\/p>\n<p>But a late second period goal from Brink closed the gap to 3-2 and then two scores by Benning at 0:42 and 11:52 of the third gave the lead back to the Pioneers.<\/p>\n<p>While Nate Knoepke tied the game at 13:10, Denver&#8217;s Bo Hanson had the winning goal answer with 5:03 remaining.<\/p>\n<p>The victory keeps alive Denver&#8217;s hopes for an at-large bid.
