UND stays at #1 in the PWR, DU now at #5 and the RPI very close between UMD, DU, and BC. If DU isn't a #1 seed, I'd rather avoid the CO regional and a potential matchup against DU in their home state to make it to the F4. Which means we have to hope that either DU gets back as a #1 seed or that they stay in the upper #2 seeds (as long as UND stays at #1 overall)...as I don't think the NCAA committee would put the overall #1 there. If DU slips to #7/8 and/or UND slips to #2, I could see them both in the CO regional. I don't want that.

Right? He made that one mistake on the PP clearing attempt that kept it in the zone for DU's lone goal, but other than that he was very solid. Great to see.

Somewhere, a pile of UMD followers head to Twitter to voice their displeasure.

Man does JBD have a rocket.

Guch with his 2nd assist tonight

Wonder how big Adams eyes got watching that puck squirt free.

Tough injury to Brink, looked like it hurt.

End of first. 1-0 UND 11-11 sog

Yeah, the goalie angle replay showed it going right on his blade.

Goes without saying this is a huge series, both in the NCHC race and to try and retain the #1 PWR. Would be nice to put as many points between us and UMD in the standings this weekend with them having a bye week.

With tonight's results, UMD passed both DU and BC in the PWR to grab the last #1 seed. A Cornell loss or two could really make it feasible for three NCHC #1 seeds.

If the season ended today, only 3 NCHC teams would make the tourney unless one of those three doesn't win the Frozen Faceoff. WMU is the next closest, but they're down in #21 currently.

As does my dad.

Part of me hopes that Cornell slips a little and allows both DU and UMD to slot into #1 seeds along with UND. Then all three top NCHC teams get sent to different regionals.

BU beats BC in 2OT and moves on to face Northeastern.

Those Big10 standings are a mess. They're all so close. Will be anyone's game during the conference tourney for the auto-bid.

12min left in 3rd, still 2-0 UAA over Mankato.

Hat trick for Taylor Ward in that one.

Right back at you!

Hell of a pass from Gooch. This looks like the 1st half team.

Oh man, what a great feed from Blaisdell and great save from Vernon while SH.

Wouldn't have thought that Smith would have 10 goals this season...and he's still got a couple more months. Some really close near misses here on great goal scoring chances....could be 3 or 4-0 right now.

Welcome to the forum!

No doubt. Don’t want him to get his undies in a twist.
