*A BIG WEEKEND*
The Alaska Nanooks are currently sitting in 7th place in the WCHA.  Two
points behind Ferris State and Lake Superior State who are tied for 5th
place. The Nanooks opponent this weekend The University of Alabama
Huntsville (UAH) are in 8th place, 3 points behind us.

With both Ferris and Lake Superior on a bye week, this is a huge weekend
for both the Alaska Nanooks, and their opponents this weekend.  A sweep
this weekend would vault the Nanooks into 5th place and within striking
distance of Fourth Place (the final home playoff spot). But, you can bet,
UAH is looking to sweep, and move up past us to Fifth place.  This weekend
will be a battle to see who will take over 5th Place in the WCHA, so I
expect some really great competition on the ice this Friday and Saturday.

*THE GAMES*
Both start at 7:07 pm,  and as usual for those of you who can’t be at the
games, they will be broadcast on radio and the internet – beginning with
Bruce Cech’s pregame show at 6:30 pm.  Or for a fee, you can watch the
video stream at WCHA.tv

*SKATE WITH THE NANOOKS*
Following Saturday’s game, there will be the last “Skate With the Nanooks”
and cookie social of the season.  So, don’t forget to bring cookies and
skates on Saturday.
