It was Ohio State’s first game since toppling No. 1 Notre Dame last weekend, however, the result wasn’t the same against No. 10 Minnesota. The Buckeyes fell to the Golden Gophers, 2-1.
Sean Romeo valiantly stopped 12/13 shots in the first period, but Ohio State only put five on net themselves, offering little offense to counter a Minnesota team out for revenge for OSU sweeping them in Columbus on December 8-9.
Ohio State would battle back and actually outshoot the Gophers in the third as they trailed by a single goal for the entire period, but couldn’t beat Mat Robson.
