Box Score Things never got much better for Colorado College after a rocky start on Friday.
Â
The Tigers, riding a four-game undefeated streak highlighted by three consecutive victories, surrendered a goal just 11 seconds into their weekend opener at the University of Nebraska Omaha and never were able to recover.
Â
UNO added a shorthanded tally at 2:15 of the first period, struck again before the game was six minutes old and rode the early three-goal cushion to a 6-0 victory at the CenturyLink Center in downtown Omaha.
Â
CC will shoot to earn a weekend split of the two-game National Collegiate Hockey Conference series when they face off in a rematch at 7:07 p.m. CT Saturday.
Â
Junior netminder Ryan Massa, a product of Littleton, Colo., steered aside all 20 shots he faced to record the shutout in Friday's contest.
Â
Massa got more than enough offensive support from junior forwards Josh Archibald, who scored twice, and Dominic Zombo, who dished out three assists.
Â
Sophomore center
Cody Bradley led Colorado College, which dropped to 6-19-6 overall and 6-10-5-1 in the NCHC, with four shots. Junior goaltender
Courtney Lockwood, who entered the game early in relief of starter
Josh Thorimbert, finished with 23 saves.
Â
Senior Brock Montpetit and freshman Jake Guentzel, younger brother of former Tiger defenseman Gabe, added a goal and an assist apiece for the Mavericks, who improved to 14-15-2 overall and 11-8-2-1 in league play. Montpetit's red lighter was the first shorthanded goal that CC has allowed this season.
