The University of Minnesota Duluth kept both its 2016-17 unbeaten road record and its seat atop the National Collegiate Hockey Conference standings intact by downing the University of Nebraska Omaha 6-4 Friday night in Omaha.

Six different Bulldogs picked up goals in the victory, including sophomore center Adam Johnson, who also added two assists while snapping out of a five-game pointless funk. UMD is now unbeaten in its last seven regular season road games (5-0-2) going back to last February and that includes a 3-0-2 mark this season.

No. 2 UMD (9-2-2 overall and 6-1-0-0 in the NCHC) blew open a 2-2 second-period deadlock by striking for four unanswered goals. Senior left wingers Alex Iafallo (his team-leading ninth of the year) and  Kyle Osterberg, senior center Dominic Toninato, sophomore right winger Billy Exell and junior right winger Karson Kuhlman also tallied for the Bulldogs. Omaha (6-4-1; 3-2-0-0) did all of its scoring damage on the power play, capitalizing four (out of possible seven) times with the man advantage, including twice in the final 6:25 of regulation. The Mavericks sport the nation's most potent power play, clicking at 35.4 percent thus far. UMD went 1-for-1 while a man up.

Iafallo and Soucy, who helped set up two goals, each extended their scoring streaks to a career-high seven games.

Rookie Hunter Miska finished with 24 saves while improving to 8-1-0 on the year. That .889 winning percentage is the second best of any NCAA I puckstopper. Evan Weninger, who was pulled 13:30 into the second period after Iafallo out the Bulldogs up 4-2, and Alex Blankenburg combined to make 28 saves.

The two teams will meet again Saturday night at Baxter Arena.
