Hey, first conference win for the Bulldogs this past weekend. The game was messy, each team had chances to win and lose the game, but the Bulldogs did what they had to do to pull out the win.

Saturday was the closing of the door. Actually a slamming of the door.
Whatever the Bulldogs pieced together and gained Friday
against SCSU was lost in a 5-1 drubbing.
Disheartening after the hope from Friday. But in the end, we looked at the last two series,
at North Dakota and home against SCSU, as a place to start by getting one
win. The Bulldogs exceeded that small
expectation and gained three of a possible eight points. Baby steps, man.
Elsewhere in the WCHA.
Bemidji hosted Alaska – Anchorage and took three points. With that, BSU helped UMD stay out of the
basement of the WCHA and left UAA as the only team yet to get a win in the
WCHA. With UMD in 11th place
is Wisconsin who was swept at home to the pesky Minnesota State Mankato
team. MSUM won both games 4-2 and never
trailed in the weekend. Denver and
Colorado College swapped opponents on the weekend as they both played Yale and
New Hampsire. The results were not good
for either WCHA team. Denver was swept
and CC managed to earn a tie with a loss.
North Dakota traveled to Notre Dame in search of their first sweep of
the season and they failed. North Dakota
won Friday, but succumbed to the Irish Saturday. Minnesota Twin Cities made a regular season
trip to the east coast for the first time since 2005 and swept the host
Catamounts of Vermont.
