The Notre Dame Fighting Irish returned to Compton Family Ice Arena Saturday to avenge Friday’s 3-0 loss to the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers, only to finish the night with the same outcome. While a three-game winning streak seemed to be shifting the Irish flow in a new direction prior to the series, fans started to see the Irish go back to old ways Saturday, particularly on the power-play.
First Period
By the end of the first period, the Irish outshot the Gophers 15-7. While the Irish set the tone, the period ended with a 0-0 tie.
