The Wilderness have dropped two straight, while Minot has yet to lose a game in regulation. The 2nd place Bismarck Bobcats, who have won three in a row, will host the St. Cloud Blizzard in a pair of games as the Blizzard look to snap a three-game slide. The final series features the Aberdeen Wings at the Austin Bruins with the two clubs separated by just a point in the standings.
