About this time last year, Omaha went on a good run (10-4-1) to finish the regular season and finish third place in the NCHC standings, the first time the Mavericks had finished that high since finishing third in each of the first two seasons (2013-14 and 2014-15).

UNO (4-7-1 NCHC, 11-9-2 overall) has had an interesting start to this season. The Mavericks have road wins over Denver and North Dakota, who have both been ranked in the top 10 throughout this season. UNO played an interesting game on Nov. 18-19 at Denver. That's not a typo. It took two days to play the game because there were some ice problems on Nov. 18. Mike Gabinet, who is in his seventh season as UNO's head coach, talks about that experience and breaks down the ups and downs of the season to this point.

He also helps preview this weekend's NCHC series at No. 14/15-ranked St. Cloud State (7-2-3, 11-7-4). The teams played one another on Dec. 8-9 at Baxter Arena with the Huskies picking up a 4-1 win and the Mavericks rebounding to pick up two points with a win in the shootout after the game finished in a 2-2 tie. Gabinet also discusses a number of the team's key players.

The St. Cloud State men's hockey team is in the middle of the toughest part of its regular schedule. The NCHC-leading and 13th-ranked Huskies (7-1-2 NCHC, 11-6-3) just finished a road series against No. 5/6 Denver (6-3-1, 15-5-2) and things don't get easier this weekend with a series against No. 6/7 North Dakota (6-4, 15-6-1) at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center.

Huskies head coach Brett Larson talks about those two series and also discusses his team, what it was like helping Team USA win the IIHF World Junior Championships gold medal and what he learned from working on Denver head coach David Carle's staff at the tournament in Sweden.
