The Gophers and the Fighting Irish each took home a win this weekend as father and son Don and Mario Lucia closed a chapter in their careers. Elsewhere around the NCAA, the #1 program took loss #1 and the Badgers started to gel.
It was an exciting weekend for NCAA hockey, with a number of upsets and long-run storylines to follow. While BSU and SCSU were on breaks, the University of North Dakota lost its first game of the season to apparent-hockey team the University of Wisconsin Badgers, but took an easy win on Saturday to prevent dropping two straight regular-season games for the first time since November 2013.
