North Dakota Fighting Sioux 2012 Red Baron™ WCHA Final Five/Broadmoor Trophy Champions WCHA Men’s Release • Weekly • 031912

2012 WCHA Playoff Championship Review con’t from Superior, Wis. “We talked about how we wanted to bring pride back to our program, and I think we did that. I’m proud of our guys, but when you get into overtime, anything can happen.” 2012 Red Baron™ WCHA Final Five The Pioneers took an early 1-0 lead, when freshman Ty Loney got to the front at Xcel Energy Center, Saint Paul, MN of the net to one-time a pass from behind the goal by Drew Shore at 3:50. It was the 10th goal of the season for Loney. Midway through the first period, the Huskies tied the game when freshman defenseman pried the puck loose on the boards and fed ahead for fellow-freshman Blake Pietila, who broke between the Denver defensemen and had a breakaway. At full speed, Pietila gave Juho Olkinuora a deke and shot into the left edge at 10:45. Tech outshot Denver 12-10 in the first, and while the Pioneers came back to outshoot Tech 16-6 in the second period, Robinson was outstanding in holding the score at 1-1, and when the puck dropped for the third period, Tech went on the attack. Jordan Baker fought for possession on the left boards and sent the puck ahead to Ryan Furne, who skated toward the net from a wide angle to the left and snapped a shot that glanced off Olkinuora’s arm and into the short side of the net at 0:18. It was the 10th goal of the season for Furne, a sophomore who grew up the Saint Paul suburb of Oakdale, less than 10 miles from Xcel Energy Center. Tech, in fact, was outshot again during the third period, but had a couple of excellent chances for a third goal. But moments after Olkimuora survived a Tech attack, Denver broke back the other way on a 3-on-2. Drew Shore carried deep up the right side and slid a pass back to the slot to Loney, who quickly relayed it to the left circle, where Luke Salazar put it away at 15:28. “It’s a game of inches,” said Tech’s first-year coach Mel Pearson, who left a long- standing role as assistant and then associate head coach at Michigan to return to lead his alma mater. “We had a chance to make it 3-1, then they come right back March 15, 2012/Game 1 and score to tie it up.” After a game of broken plays and not much flow, the tying goal was on a play Zucker’s Overtime Goal Lifts Denver to 3-2 Victory over MTU in that couldn’t have been diagrammed more smoothly.

But he had no chance on the tying goal, with 4:32 left, or Brock Nelson came up with a big goal to break a 1-1 tie, and he scored one on Zucker’s game-winner. On that play, Nick Shore tried to get a shot through but of the Fighting Sioux empty-net goals, while his linemates, Corban Knight and it was blocked by congestion in the slot. Defenseman Joe LaLeggia, a freshman, Danny Kristo, each added a dose of good luck to score the other North Dakota gained possession, and moved toward the right circle to find an opening, while goals. The fact that the top North Dakota line has become so dangerous -- Nelson Zucker was off to the left of the net, uncovered. has 25 goal, Knight 14, and Kristo 18 – has been a major inspiration for a Sioux Zucker saw LaLeggia move and said, “He made a great play, and I called for the team that has risen to 23-13-3, and will face top-seeded Minnesota (26-12-1) in puck. He put it right on my stick.” Friday’s second semifinal. Robinson said: “I saw their guy move to the top of the circle, and then I saw the “Earlier in the season, up in Alaska, those three guys started to step forward,” puck go across, so I tried to push over as hard as I could. But he put it in.” said North Dakota coach . “They had shown what they could do, but Michigan Tech was in legitimate running for a top six home-ice position until they really started leading our team through the last two-thirds of the season. the final weekend of regular-season play, when the Huskies lost 5-2 and 2-0 at They allowed other players and other lines to step up too.

2012 WCHA Playoff Championship Review con’t Tabrum fired a shot from the right side that glanced off the right pipe and out toward the blue line. Defenseman John Ryder shot again. “Ryder threw it at the net and it hit me in the chest,” said Larraza, who let the puck drop in front of him, pulled it to his right as goaltender Kenny Reiter went down, and then flicked a backhander into the open goal. He did it with the poise and certainty that a veteran scorer might have shown. Instead, Larraza was dressed as Denver’s 13th forward – a spare after the four regular lines. “That was the biggest goal I’ve scored,” said Larraza. To say nothing of the only one. “I got about 10 shifts in the game, so I was still fresh at the end.” Officially, the goal came at 8:14 of the second 20-minute overtime, which means it was after 38:14 of sudden-death play, making the game’s duration 98 minutes, 14 seconds, breaking the league playoff record, and leaving 12,804 fans nearly as drained as the players. Another record set in the game was the 67 saves by Denver goaltender Sam Brittain, who withstood UMD’s determined comeback from a 3-0 deficit, which featured the Bulldogs outshooting Denver 70-49. The victory sends Denver (25-12-4) into Saturday’s championship game against the winner of Friday night’s Minnesota-North Dakota second semifinal. UMD goes home 24-9-6, but certain to have a high seed in next week’s NCAA tournament field. “We dug ourselves a hole at the start, but we did a lot of good things in the second half of the game, and it became a helluva hockey game,” said UMD coach Scott Sandelin. “Both teams had a lot of chances and both goalies made some said Huskies coach . “We made a mistake on their second goal, and tremendous saves.” that made a big difference in the game. Nelson is a big-time shooter, and someone UMD, which lost a first-round Final Five game to Bemidji State a year ago, before I think we’ll be watching in the NHL for a lot of years, but he was coming down catching a hot streak that went all the way to the NCAA championship on the same his off-side and we didn’t play him to cut to the middle.

Brock Nelson scored his second of the game, zooming in to score at 19:00, and when the Huskies tried to press, Taylor Johnson got a five-minute major and disqualification penalty for goaltender interference, so with :27 seconds left, Kristo flipped a shot from center ice into the empty net for a power-play goal to create the misleading 4-1 final.

Until the second 20-minute overtime, that is. Then, after both teams had played to exhaustion in the longest game in WCHA playoff history, Larraza got on the Xcel Energy Center ice and scored his first collegiate goal to send the Pioneers into the playoff final with a 4-3 victory over Minnesota Duluth.

Exactly :30 seconds later, Brock Nelson blocked a high bouncing puck and fired it in to tie the game 3-3. The large contingent of Fighting Sioux fans in the crowd went crazy, and the Sioux poured it on. Patterson in goal for the Gophers was like a young man caught at the base of an avalanche coming down upon him. Lamoureux, who had exactly one goal all season but willingly played his leadership role to the hilt, scored at 9:42 to lift the Fighting Sioux to their first lead of the night at 4-3. Minnesota, which hadn’t drawn a single penalty, got one then, at 9:56, and Corban Knight scored at 10:19, on North Dakota’s only power-play chance, to make it 5-3.

He now has three goals for the season. Goaltender Aaron Dell, who looked helpless in the first half of the game, never allowed another goal, and the Fighting Sioux stormed into the championship game. “We had great energy and a very good first period,” said Lucia. “Congratulations March 16, 2012/Game 4 to North Dakota, because we couldn’t get it back going. We’ve been very good in the third period all season – we’ve only allowed 18 goals total in the third period. Surging Sioux Rally to Stun Golden Gophers 6-3 in WCHA Final And we gave up five tonight. We punched, they punched back, and we wilted.” Five Semifinal by John Gilbert, for WCHA.com SAINT PAUL, Minn. – The first semifinal set Red Baron™ WCHA Final Five records for length of time, and saves, but the second semifinal provided an even more remarkable turnabout, as North Dakota spotted top-seeded Minnesota a 3-0 lead, then the Fighting Sioux stormed back for six unanswered goals to stun the Golden Gophers 6-3 in front of an Xcel Energy Center crowd of 16,738. The game was amazingly split exactly in half, as the Gophers led 3-0 at the halfway point, and the Fighting Sioux simply took the game over, gaining momentum with every goal. North Dakota (24-12-3) roars into Saturday night’s WCHA playoff final against Denver, which beat Minnesota Duluth 4-3 in double overtime after blowing a 3-0 lead. It means that this year’s champion will have won three games in three days. WCHA Men’s Release • Weekly • 031912

2012 WCHA Playoff Championship Review con’t Gwozdecky said. “That made me realize how tired we were.” Gwozdecky praised North Dakota for its play, however. “North Dakota was sharp and moved the puck well,” he said. “The way they played last night with their great comeback, and the way they played tonight, I would say they would be a very likely Frozen Four team.” Goaltender Aaron Dell was sharp in his third game in three days, which, he said, he hadn’t done since his junior hockey days in the Alberta league. The Pioneers had the first great scoring chance, but Dell came up with the save when Nate Dewhurst blasted a one-timer from the slot after a feed from behind the net. Later, Dell said that was the toughest save he could remember. “The guys made it pretty easy for me,” he said. Denver went back to goaltender Juho Olkinuora, who won against Tech, after Sam Brittain made a Final Five tournament record 67 stops against UMD. A few seconds after Dell’s big save, Mario Lamoureux wound up to shoot at the other end. Denver freshman Matt Tabrum hooked his stick to prevent a shot, and was called for hooking at 16:25, and North Dakota jumped at the power-play chance. Corban Knight pulled a left-corner faceoff back to Dillon Simpson, who shot from the top of the circle. The blocked shot popped up into Brock Nelson’s body, and he let the puck drop, then scored his 27th goal of a sterling sophomore season into the Denver net at 17:43. “Knighter made a big play winning the faceoff, and when Dillon shot the puck bounced up off the goalie and hilt me,” said Nelson. “I was just lucky to be in the March 17, 2012/Championship Game right place, and I got a good stick on it.” North Dakota Blanks Denver 4-0 to Capture 2012 Red Baron On the next shift, North Dakota center Carter Rowney skated to the left edge as Mike MacMillan sent him a perfect pass for a goal at 18:29, and the two goals WCHA Final Five, Broadmoor Trophy in :46 seconds sent the Fighting Sioux into intermission up 2-0. “They started off better than we did, and they kept it rolling,” said Denver center by John Gilbert, for WCHA.com Drew Shore. “We don’t play three games in a row much, but the first goal in any SAINT PAUL, Minn. – If it was the last time the North Dakota hockey team ever game is huge.

North Dakota thus claimed the Broadmoor Trophy for an unprecedented To that point, the Fighting Sioux hadn’t drawn a single penalty, but they got third consecutive time, and gave Aaron Dell an easy shutout for his third victory the next three. Rowney’s second penalty in a row opened the third period, but in three days. The Sioux (25-12-3) ride into next week’s NCAA tournament on the instead of giving hope to the Pioneers it was the Sioux who scored, shorthanded. wings of a seven-game winning streak, which started, ironically, after a 5-3 loss MacMillan blocked the puck free from a Denver skater at center ice and raced in that resulted in a split at Denver.

We just need some rest, and maybe we could even get a couple of our in three Final Five games – and Michael Parks. long-term injured players back.” It used to be customary that teams that had to win a play-in game to reach the semifinals would never have enough staying power to win three games in three days, but Minnesota Duluth pulled it off in 2009, and North Dakota won three in 2012 Red Baron WCHA Final Five All-Tournament Team 2010. This year, however, was the first in which both finalists were playing for the third time in three days. Forward: Jason Zucker, Denver. Forward: Mario Lamoureux, North Dakota.

Maybe there was a positive carryover history of the Final Five. from scoring six unanswered goals against the Golden Gophers. “We wanted to play a complete game tonight,” said North Dakota coach Dave Hakstol. “We didn’t play complete games either Thursday or Friday, and we wanted to exploit the chance they might be a little more tired, because of how much they’ve had to play. Our energy level was pretty good, and we were plus-one 5-on-5, scored two power-play goals, and one shorthanded.” It appeared that the Pioneers may have finally been overtaken by battle-fatigue, and it didn’t help their manpower when they lost defenseman Josiah Didier to an injury, then offensive star Jason Zucker went out in the third period and was taken to a hospital for an MRI on an “upper body” injury. At one point coach George Gwozdecky said he moved two forwards back to play defense. “I noticed how much quicker we were able to go back and get the puck,” WCHA Men’s Release • Weekly • 031912 WCHA Men’s Playoff Championship History • 1959-2012 WCHA Playoff Champions Season Champion(s) (Head Coach) 2003-04 Minnesota (Don Lucia) Season Champion(s) (Head Coach) 2004-05 Denver (George Gwozdecky) 1959-60 Denver* (Murray Armstrong) 2005-06 North Dakota (Dave Hakstol) Michigan Tech* (John MacInnes) 2006-07 Minnesota (Don Lucia) 1960-61 Denver* (Murray Armstrong) 2007-08 Denver (George Gwozdecky) Minnesota* () 2008-09 Minnesota Duluth (Scott Sandelin) 1961-62 Michigan Tech (John MacInnes) 2009-10 North Dakota (Dave Hakstol) 1962-63 Denver (Murray Armstrong) 2010-11 North Dakota (Dave Hakstol) 1963-64 Denver (Murray Armstrong 2011-12 North Dakota (Dave Hakstol) 1964-65 Michigan Tech (John MacInnes) * first-round playoff winners; • second-round playoff winners; 1965-66 Denver (Murray Armstrong) + East and West Regional playoff winners Michigan State (Amo Bessone) 1966-67 Michigan State • (Amo Bessone) North Dakota • () 1967-68 Denver • (Murray Armstrong) Playoff Championship Summaries North Dakota • (Bill Selman) 1968-69 Denver + (Murray Armstrong) 1959-60 Michigan Tech + (John MacInnes) Playoff Champions: Denver, Michigan Tech 1969-70 Michigan Tech + (John MacInnes) WCHA Playoffs (2 games, total goals).

WCHA Men’s Tie-Breaking Procedures - For Playoff Purposes Only

At the conclusion of the regular season, teams will be ranked by the number of points accumulated. If two teams are tied for first place, they will be declared co- WCHA champions. The first round of the WCHA's post-season tournament will be a best-of-three games format at the home site of the teams ranked higher in the final regular season standings. All 12 teams participate in the first round of the tournament. First round playoff pairings will be: #1 rank vs #12 rank, #2 rank vs #11 rank, #3 vs #10, #4 vs #9, 5# vs #8, and #6 vs #7. Following the six first round series, the six winning teams will be re-seeded #1 thru #6 according to their standings in the final WCHA in-season competition and will advance to the WCHA Final Five. In the event that ties are encountered in the determination of WCHA ranking or designation of home teams for playoff purposes, the following procedures will be used in the order given to break the ties: a) If two or more teams are tied, head-to-head competition during the regular (conference) season will be used to break the tie. b) If two or more teams are still tied after (a), the highest seed will go to the team with the most WCHA (conference) wins during the regular season. c) If two or more teams played a four-game series during the regular season and the teams have the same win-loss records for those series and the same number of WCHA wins, the team having the least number of goals scored against it in the four-game series shall have the higher rank. If two or more teams played a two-game series during the regular season, procede to tie-breaker d). d) If two or more teams are still tied after applying the provisions of (a), (b) and (c), the team having the greatest "winning margin" during the regular season will have the higher rank. Winning margin = WCHA goals for during the regular season minus WCHA goals against. e) Games played against WCHA opponents in holiday tournaments will not be counted in the determinations.
