Pregame notes
No changes in UND's lineup. . . Minnesota Duluth is bringing Moorhead's Kyler Kleven in for Kyle Bettens and shuffling its top three lines. The Bulldogs also are shuffling their second defensive pairing. . . UND is aiming at a fifth-straight win in Duluth — something it hasn't achieved since the 1960s. The last time UND did that was Dec. 19, 1962 to Nov. 29, 1968. UND won 13 in a row in that span. It's the only time in program history UND has won five in a row at Duluth.
