Verhoeff at #2 for midterm rankings, as well as some committed players: https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/keaton-verhoeff-at-no-2-on-central-scoutings-nhl-draft-midterm-rankings

Huge weekend. 1st vs 2nd in the NCHC. NPI 2nd vs 11th UND just took 4 of 6 points on the road at CC. DU just got throttled by WMU at home and are now winless in their last 5 games. DU is gonna come in hungry for any NCHC points. They are led in points by two JR dmen (not often that you see that) Pohlkamp and Buckberger. Hopefully UND can take care of business at home and send DU back home to Denver with their winless streak intact.

Another ECHL/AHL player joins the NCAA ranks. Getting a little crazy, NCAA might need to rein this in a bit somehow, but that ship has probably sailed now.

I believe that is called "Pulling a Pionk".

He's the Notre Dame captain too, which is crazy.

Huge props to Zmolek on his first goal in a UND sweater:

If Ivankovic is injured for any length of time, that would be a huge blow for Michigan. Their backup goalie, Peck, has only played in one game all season...with a 4.83 GAA and a .857 save %.

All teams have played 12 league games now. Top four have separated themselves a bit with the bottom 4 only separated by 4 points. UND 5 pts up on DU, 6 pts on WMU, and 8 pts up on UMD. Keep it rolling!

Crazy that they are at #19 with an 11-11 record.

Still lost the faceoff battle, but a much more respectable 30-32 tonight.

Nice 4pt weekend in a place and against a team that UND has struggled with lately. Great jump in the NCHC race this weekend!

Good response tonight after the 1st.

Menghini with back to back assists to start the 3rd now. Nice.

Beaut of a backhand after the deke.

Young is showing to be a steady guy...not flashy, but reliable. Good pickup, and he'll be hard to take out of the lineup even if/when Zakreski can return.

Replay looked like it deflected off the CC dman after the shot. But yes, normally a goal that Mbereko stops.

Dang, WMU 5 goals on 18 shots?

Not getting a whole lot of puck luck this weekend. Is that four or five UND posts this weekend? Something like that.

Man, DU's gonna be ticked off next weekend after this WMU curb-stomping they suffered this weekend

SOG 11-2 UND this period.

Yeah four PPG's in one game. That'll help for sure.

Just a great pass from Reschny and a great read from Zmolek to sneak in on that goal.

BU was up to #20 in the NPI after their win last night, have now tanked to #27 after this loss. That's a darn shame.
