SHOW OUTLINE

-Friday: 1-4 Loss

-Saturday: 2-5 Loss

Overall Weekend Notes:

NCHC Updates:

DU/ASU games were fun both nights

• This is exactly what the NCHC wanted when they brought ASU in

• CC has won 5 of 6 vs North Dakota

• NoDak fans no longer want home ice

• Western was undaunted and extended their lead

• Omaha imposed their will and flashed their goaltending vs UMD

The Rest of College Hockey:

• THE BEANPOT

  FINALLY got 1 vs 2 in the championship game, only to have an upset again

• Fun back and forth game

• A little sloppy play on both sides

• Kinda hides BU’s loss to Merrimack on Friday

• Minnesota State sweeps Augustana - Likely secures McNaughton cup

• Mich & Mich St split weekend

• Penn State sweeps Wisconsin

• The comeback is over
