As expected, UND is without two forwards due to injury. Hunter Johannes is out with a lower-body injury, while Carson Albrecht is out with an upper-body injury. . . Jayden Perron remains as top-line left wing. He was moved there in the third period Saturday at St. Cloud. Meanwhile, Ben Strinden moves to Perron's old spot on the third line. Griffin Ness and Dane Montgomery are both in. . . Denver is going with the same lineup as last weekend at Omaha.
