The Chippewa Steel swept the Minnesota Wilderness in a weekend series last week. Chippewa took a 6-3 victory Friday night in Chippewa Falls and followed with a 5-2 win Saturday in Cloquet.
Those results led to Chippewa and the Wilderness swapping places in the Midwest Division — the Steel (17-17-4) moved into fifth place with 38 points, while the Wilderness (17-16-3) fell to sixth with 37 points.
Minnesota next heads to Alaska for its next five games. The Wilderness are in Fairbanks to meet the Ice Dogs in a three-game series that begin on Thursday, then go to Kenai River for games on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1.
