The NCAA hockey national championship game is set, and it should hold some interest for the Chicago Blackhawks.
Top-seeded Denver University faces second seed Minnesota-Duluth on Saturday night at the United Center in Chicago in a NCHC clash. After Minnesota-Duluth held on for a thrilling 2-1 victory over Harvard University in the first semifinal game, Blackhawks prospects Blake Hillman and Dennis Gilbert squared off when Denver faced Notre Dame.
In a less thrilling, one-sided game, Denver and Hillman topped Gilbert and Notre Dame 6-1.
