Fargo Force take on top team in USHL today

Fargo Force take on the top team in the USHL tonight as they take on the Omaha Lancers.  Two of their top forwards, Matt White (49 points) and Erik Haula (40) are nearly doubling the scoring leaders for the Force.  Fargo will have to step up their defensive game against Omaha's top line.  Omaha's talent doesn't drop off there.  Omaha has three other 20 point players in Seth Ambroz, Dakota Eveland and defenseman Dennis Brown.

Last time the Force faced off against the Lancers in Omaha, they were able to come away with a 5-2 win.  That game was played at a time when the Force were not playing their best hockey in October.  If Fargo wants to consider themselves in the top echelon of teams in the USHL, they will want to beat Omaha again and move two points closer to the top.

Fargo is coming off a comeback victory against Team USA U-18 team 4-3 on New Year's Eve.  Omaha is coming off a 5-3 win over the Musketeers in Sioux City.
