This puts the Sioux in sole possession of 5th place in the WCHA. That means that we are in the drivers seat for home ice in the first round of the WCHA tournament.
The Sioux were first on the boards with an early goal by Freshman Danny Kristo. That's the way the first period ended. CC tied it up in the second and took a lead in the 3rd.
Considering the history of losing these close games I didn't have a lot of luck. But with a couple minutes left Brad Malone scored a goal to tie it up.
The game was capped off with an overtime game winner by Matt Frattin in the overtime frame.
We have to be happy with coming back like that. It was certainly feeling like we were going to let another game get away from us.
I just heard that we had 42 shots on goal in this game.
I wouldn't mind having the wins come easy, but you have to be proud of the guys figuring out how to battle back and win a game that they could have let go.
Let's get out there and get the sweep tomorrow night.
CC and UMD are precariously perched on the pairwise bubble right now. They both better wake up otherwise their season is going to be over before they know what hit them. UND and MN continue to roll along, as does Denver. DU is going to be one darn tough team for anyone to beat from here on out with Cheverie in goal and all the weapons they have on offense.
