ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Jade Miller played for a bantam state championship in eighth grade and lost. He played for three North Dakota state high school championships with Grafton-Park River and lost all of them. He played for a North American Hockey League championship in junior hockey and lost. He played for an NCAA national championship as a freshman at Minnesota Duluth and lost.
ST. PAUL, Minn.—The last time Minnesota Duluth walked out of the Xcel Energy Center, it thought the season was over. This time, it will leave with the NCAA national championship trophy. The Bulldogs completed an improbable run from being the final at-large team to make the NCAA tournament—they made it by 0.0001 of an RPI percentage point—with a 2-1 victory over Notre Dame on Saturday night in the Xcel Energy Center.
ST. PAUL—Kobe Roth never had an opportunity to play in the Xcel Energy Center in high school. His Warroad High School career came at the same time as East Grand Forks was making annual trips to the Minnesota state boys high school hockey tournament and winning a pair of state championships. "This is the first time," the former Warroad forward said standing outside of Minnesota Duluth's locker room Friday afternoon. It will be a memorable one.
ST. PAUL, Minn.—Just another ho-hum Notre Dame hockey game. The Fighting Irish used a goal with 5.2 seconds left ot beat Michigan 4-3 in the NCAA Frozen Four semifinals on Thursday night in the Xcel Energy Center. It was the fifth consecutive game that Notre Dame has won in the last 31 seconds of regulation or in overtime. It will set up a national championship game against Minnesota Duluth at 6:30 p.m. Saturday in the Xcel Energy Center. Minnesota Duluth is looking for its second national title (2011). Notre Dame is looking for its first.

ST. PAUL, Minn.—Scott Sandelin recalled sitting in nearly the same spot in the Xcel Energy Center 19 days earlier. "We thought our season was done," the Minnesota Duluth coach said. "We got a little lucky. It gave us some second life and here we are now." Here are the Bulldogs, playing for a national championship. After getting into the NCAA tournament by 0.0001 of an RPI percentage point, the Bulldogs won three consecutive one-goal games—the latest a 2-1 win over Ohio State Thursday afternoon in the Frozen Four semifinals.
ST. PAUL — Minnesota Duluth is headed back to the NCAA national championship game. In a game eerily similar to their NCAA West Regional final victory two weeks ago, the Bulldogs built an early two-goal lead in a dominant first period, then hung on for a 2-1 win in the Frozen Four semifinals in Xcel Energy Center. The Bulldogs (24-16-3) will take on Notre Dame or Michigan at 6:30 p.m. Saturday for the championship. The last time the Frozen Four was held in the Xcel Energy Center, the Bulldogs won their first and only national championship.
Shane Gersich made his NHL debut Wednesday night for the Washington Capitals -- and it was a milestone one for the UND men’s hockey program. When Gersich skated onto the ice at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., he became the 100th UND player to suit up in an NHL game. UND and Minnesota are the only two college hockey programs to have 100 NHL players.
The St. Louis Blues gave Austin Poganski the option of starting his newly signed NHL contract this season, joining the NHL club right away and collecting his signing bonus and prorated contract immediately. But like he’s done for much of his career, Poganski is looking at the big picture and made a decision on what’s best for the long run.
The 2018 NCAA Frozen Four at St. Paul's Xcel Energy will look a lot like the 2011 NCAA Frozen Four at the Xcel Energy Center. Three of the four teams are exactly the same as the last time the Minnesota Wild's home building hosted the event—Minnesota Duluth, Notre Dame and Michigan. The fourth team is Ohio State, which stunned defending national champion Denver 5-1 in the NCAA Midwest Regional in Allentown, Pa., on Sunday night.
