The Fighting Illini hockey team remains undefeated for at least one more night, escaping Artic Edge Ice Arena in Edmonton, Okla., with a 4-3 victory over the Central Oklahoma Bronchos.

Heading into the final period tied 1-1, the Bronchos netted two early goals to take a 3-1 advantage, only to watch as the Illini scored three goals in a six-minute span. All four goals by the Illini came on power plays, as the Bronchos committed 14 penalties in the game, six of which came in the final period.
