Re: WCHA Thread IV
North Dakota's Meghan Dufault topped Lindenwood by herself, scoring 4 times and adding 2 assists for a 6-point night. Her teammates added 3 more goals as UND defeated the Lions by a score of 7-3. Box score
And in exhibition action, Wisconsin shut out a short-staffed Minnesota Whitecaps team, 4-0. Box score

Re: WCHA Thread IV
Lindenwood outscored UND 3-1 in the third period... too bad they were trailing 7-1 after the first two. North Dakota wins, 8-4, with a 54-28 shot advantage. JLam tried to copy Meghan Dufault's performance from Friday, coming up an assist short but still lighting the lamp 4 times and adding an assist. Jordan Slavin scored twice on the power play, and Josefine Jakobsen had a goal and 3 assists. For the Lions, Allysson Archibal and Alyssa West each had a goal and an assist.
That ended up being the final. Jessica Havel had a 21-save shutout.

For anyone interested, the Unofficial Three Stars for today's OSU Intrasquad Game and Skills Contest are now available. They appear on the OSU team thread. Didn't seem right to use the league thread when there was no visiting team and were no WCHA officials.

Re: WCHA Thread IV
I do anticipate a much tougher series than the first go 'round in Grand Forks.
Minnesota State @ Bemidji State: Beavers could use 6 at home. 3 apiece again.
St. Cloud State @ Minnesota-Duluth: Huskies...Huskies...Huskies........Sweep.....Sweep &....Sweep!
North Dakota @ Minnesota: Minnesota wins two gritty battles
Ohio State @ Wisconsin: I think the Red Weasels of Madison are getting it together as many have suspected. The Buckeyes finish the weekend in the 3rd spot via a Madison Red Weasel sweep.
That's the call I'm making for the Gophers 2nd half launch...Nice call, brooky! Now please tell me the Gophers will pick up right where they left off, and SWEEP the Whioux at home!

Re: WCHA Thread IV
For three of the league's teams - Minnesota, Ohio State and UMD - this weekend's games will be their first in over a month. Trying to predict how much rust they'll each have makes it even more guessing game than usual! But just for fun I'll go with:
Minnesota State @ Bemidji State MSU is coming off a nice tune up and pair of one-sided wins against an overmatched Lindenwood, plus they will have had a full 10 days to rest. Meanwhile Bemidji has to be feeling good about rebounding in their last game, at home, against St. Cloud. I'll say this one ends in a SPLIT.
St. Cloud State @ Minnesota-Duluth Very difficult to say if the long layoff might be a hindrance or might actually benefit UMD, but I think they will use this series at home to start to turn things around in the second half. I'm going with a BULLDOG SWEEP in this one.
North Dakota @ Minnesota Couldn't agree more with brooky that this series will prove to be a real battle. Like MSU the Wioux got a nice tune up against Lindenwood to start the 2nd half. But until the Gophers actually lose a game - despite the looooooong layoff, who in their right mind would bet against them? it will be difficult, but the GOPHERS SWEEP.
Ohio State @ Wisconsin OSU will also be trying to shake off some rust, but they'll be facing what appears to be a resurgent Badgers squad, which at least had an exhibition warm-up against an admittedly depleted Whitecaps roster. I'd probably guess differently if OSU was hosting this series, but away from home I believe they will return home after Saturday's game with no points on the weekend. I hope I'm wrong, but I'll say BUCKY SWEEPS.

Re: WCHA Thread IV
Not that I have any clue whatsoever (then again, who does?
), but here are my prognostications...
Minnesota State @ Bemidji State: A sweep of Lindenwood does not a winner make... Mavericks will have to settle for a split.
St. Cloud State @ Minnesota-Duluth: As much as it pains me, I'm picking a Bulldog sweep.
North Dakota @ Minnesota: Gopher sweep, though it might not be pretty.
Ohio State @ Wisconsin: I'll stick my neck out on the line and call this one a split. I think the visitors have the mojo to steal some points here (though, actually, it would be better for my rooting interest if they didn't).

Minnesota @ Minnesota State: Mavs typically tough for Minnesota...but Gophers manage a sweep
St. Cloud State @ Ohio State: Buckeyes bounce back with two wins at home
Bemidji State @ Minnesota-Duluth: Angry Beavers occupy AMSOIL winning both...grabbing 6 desperately needed pts.
Wisconsin @ North Dakota: Moderately bold, entirely serious prediction, a Whioux sweep

Re: WCHA Thread IV
Same picks here, with one major exception: The Mutts sweep the Beavs at home!
(not what I'm hoping for, just what I think will happen )
