The Norman Northstars who desperately need a win will hit the road starting tonight against the Winnipeg Wild.

Norman has just 1 win in their last 12 games and are starting to fade from the playoff picture.

Entering play this weekend the Northstars are 4 points behind 8th place Pembina Valley for the last playoff spot.

The Hawks do have 3 games in hand.

Norman will conclude the trip on Saturday in Interlake against the Lightning.
