Cam Lee scores! 2-1

DiPietro scores! 3-1

I know everyone was frustrated last night but look at North Dakota.
They came in here and tied and beat Miami. It’s the NCHC, games can go either way sometimes

If you're North Dakota and sit #1 in the PairWise, you can afford to drop a few unexpected road games. If you're Western and you took a dump for a half season, you can't.

Agreed. They need to win these games.

Washe scores! 4-1

Yeah baby. Washe scores. 4 - 1

What a stop by bussi though on that prior play.....wow

4-1 final

Hope wade is ok for Duluth next weekend

Hope we crack into the Top-15 tonight.

Nice win. Took the lead, kept them on their heels, and then closed them out. NoDak leading Denver after 2 so we could have a 4 point lead on them for third.

Looks like we're going to be #16 in the PairWise heading into the big series vs Duluth.

Happy w/ the Win! McGing's pretty darn good.

Have us getting swept the next 2 weekends. Duluth will be tough.

I’m going to wait until Tuesday to post new Pairwise updates. If CC and Michigan win games Monday night we jump to 15 in Pairwise.

Hey Doo. It's both fun and frustrating to play shoulda, woulda, coulda but where would we be in pairwise if we had managed to win the Friday game at Lawson vs NoDak in regulation instead of losing 1-0 in OT?

Hard to say but given the way teams are bunched and where the gaps are...probably about 13

We would have been 12th. Oddly enough, had we won the game against Miami on Friday, we would have been 12th right now as well. Those bubble spots are very close numerically. Here's the site to play around with the pairwise.

Thanks. I guess that hits home with how important our last two home games with Miami will be...….potentially a deal breaker/maker for getting a bid.

And spring break is March 2-6 so the students will be gone.
