3-0, CC over Minot State about 13 minutes into the game. Shots are 11-1, CC. Puck has been in Minot’s zone almost the entire game. Why was this game and tomorrows against DU even scheduled? 

The reason is, for the most part, is there isn't many holiday tournaments anymore. So, teams use the break to play an exhibition game but D1 teams don't want to play Canadian teams anymore, so they schedule ACHA D1 teams. Not sure they can play an exhibition game against a NCAA D1 team mid-season like they can at the start of the season.

True and truthfully it’s good exposure for Minot St. I know they are saying they aren’t looking to go D1 but you gotta believe it’s on the back burner

I don't think it's a terrible idea teams will play ACHA teams. Lets these schools see what it takes to move up.
