Game Day: BU vs. Duluth for a trip to Chicago



For the second time in three years, the Terriers will face Minnesota Duluth in the NCAA Regional with a trip to the Frozen Four in Chicago on the line.  The Western Regional final in Fargo begins at 6 p.m. ET and will air on ESPNU.

Last night, #6 BU defeated North Dakota, 4-3 in 2OT on a Charlie McAvoy goal, while the Bulldogs also went to extra time, defeating Ohio State, 3-2, on Willie Raskob’s goal at 11:58 of overtime. Both goalies faced a ton of rubber with BU’s Jake Oettinger making 56 saves while UMD’s Hunter Miska turning aside 40 shots.

In the 2015 regional in Manchester, N.H., BU edged Duluth, 3-2, when Evan Rodrigues broke a 2-2 tie with a slick toe-drag goal in the final minutes of the third period.
