No matter how you do it or what process it entailed, a sweep over the No. 7 team in the country is one you’ll take whether you’re winless or ranked No. 1. Ohio State found a way to do just that with its second win over No. 7 Minnesota in Columbus. This time, it was a 4-1 victory.
The game was tied at 1-1 with just over five minutes left in the third period before a seemingly innocuous point shot off a faceoff win by Matt Miller beat Mat Robson and turned out to be the game winning goal.
