Regardless of this weekend’s results, DU will advance to its record 14th consecutive full-season NCAA Tournament.
The National Collegiate Hockey Conference has seen one of its teams capture four of the last five NCAA championships, and once again, a slew of Frozen Four candidates will take the ice at this weekend’s NCHC Frozen Faceoff in St. Paul, Minn.
The winners will meet in Saturday’s conference title game, with the winner securing an automatic bid to the 16-team NCAA Tournament. The three other teams are all-but assured of at-large berths. The national PairWise Ranking — the system that mimics how the NCAA fields its national tournament — has Denver at No. 3, Western Michigan at No. 5, North Dakota at No. 6, and Minnesota-Duluth at No. 9.
“We’re an excited group. We didn’t really get to do this last year; it was obviously in Grand Forks,” DU fifth-year senior forward Ryan Barrow said. “Guys are really excited to get to play in the X in a more normal experience this time around.” “Really good hockey team,” Carle said of the Bulldogs . “They don’t give you a lot of time and space. Obviously, we know them well. There’s mutual respect. It’s a fun game to be a part of because you’re going to have to earn everything you get. So our guys are looking forward to that challenge and Game 5 of our series on a big stage.
