Series History UND leads the all-time series (.536), although the Pioneers took four of six points from the host Fighting Hawks back in November. This will be the third NCHC Frozen Faceoff matchup between the two programs, with both previous meetings coming in the league s third-place game. UND and DU skated to a 1-1 overtime tie last year, while DU claimed a 5-1 win in the 2015 tournament. The two teams met 25 times in the conference playoffs as longtime WCHA rivals, with UND going (.540). Poll Position UND climbed to No. 11 in both the latest USCHO and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine polls, released on Monday. Denver remained the nation s top-ranked team in both polls. As of Tuesday morning, UND held the 11th spot in the PairWise Rankings and the Pioneers were No. 1. Please refer to Page 3 for complete rankings and poll information.

The two teams combined for five goals in the third period alone on Saturday. Frozen Faceoff Facts UND is playing in its conference tournament for the 15th straight season, the longest active streak of any NCHC program.

UND is this season against the rest of the NCHC Frozen Faceoff field, going vs. Denver, vs. Minnesota Duluth and vs. Western Michigan. UND won 11 playoff titles as a member of the WCHA, most recently winning three straight Broadmoor Trophies from Tourney Tidbits The Fighting Hawks are looking to secure their 15th straight NCAA Tournament berth, which would extend the second-longest streak in the history of Division I men s hockey: MOST CONSECUTIVE NCAA TOURN.

In 35 games this season, Olson has achieved career highs in points (12), goals (5) and assists (7). Reaching New Heights Olson is one of nine Fighting Hawks skaters who have either tied or eclipsed their previous career highs for points in a season: New Career Highs - Points in a Season Name Points Prev. High (Year) Shane Gersich ( ) Tucker Poolman ( ) Rhett Gardner ( ) Christian Wolanin ( ) Joel Janatuinen ( ) Trevor Olson ( ) Chris Wilkie ( ) Hayden Shaw ( ) Mike Gornall ( ) A 10th skater, junior Austin Poganski (St. Cloud, Minn.), is one point shy of last season s career high 25. Goalie Cam Junior goaltender Cam Johnson (Troy, Mich.) enters the Frozen Faceoff with just one loss in 10 career playoff starts (conference and NCAA). Johnson is in those 10 starts with a 2.07 goals against average and.917 save percentage. Four-Play The four-goal mark has proven to be vital to UND s fortunes once again this year. UND is unbeaten at when scoring four or more goals in a game and has gone just when failing to reach the 4-goal plateau. Last season, UND went when scoring four times and when failing to do so. Gardner s Specialty When sophomore Rhett Gardner (Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan) opened the scoring last Friday night with his seventh goal of the season, it was just his second at even strength all year. Gardner also has three power-play goals and a team-leading two short-handed tallies this season. Gardner has scored half of his 18 career goals on special teams: five on the power play and four while shorthanded. Hit Me With Your Best Shot North Dakota is giving up an average of just shots per game this season, a number that ranks second nationally behind only Michigan Tech (23.02). UND ranks sixth nationally in both shots-ongoal differential (+323) and shots-on-goal differential per game (+8.73). Fancy Stats North Dakota also fares well nationally in a variety of advanced stats. The Fighting Hawks rank second in the nation in total Corsi (57.3%), trailing only Penn State (60.8). UND also ranks third in power-play Corsi (59.4%), fourth in even-strength Corsi (56.8%), and seventh in close Corsi (56.2%). Source: College Hockey News. Corsi measures the percentage of shot attempts by a team compared to that of its opponents. Close Corsi involves only tied or one-goal situations. Additionally, UND ranks fourth nationally in both total (57.2%) and even-strength (57.1%) Fenwick and is tied for seventh in close (56.7%), and power-play (58.0%) Fenwick.
