No. 3 CC 1, Michigan Tech 1 (end of first)

A couple of observations:
1. This Michigan Tech team can really move. The first period clipped along at a wicked pace and neither team had an extended period of possession.
2. Colorado College has 10 shots on net after a period. In each of the Tigers' previous five outings against the Huskies -- a stretch in which CC is 1-3-1 -- they have mustered double-digit shots in only one period. It'll be interesting to see if they can sustain their effort over the course of the game.
3. I think the Huskies have magnets in their shin pads. They are shot-blocking machines. The Tigers aren't doing too badly in that area themselves, but need to work harder at getting their shots around Michigan Tech.

Faceoffs:
CC 6 of 16 (Vlassopoulos 3/7; Rau 2/5; Walsky 1/2; Sweatt 0/1; Johnson 0/1)
MTU 10 of 16 (Angelow 5/6; Rouleau 3/6; Gagne 1/2; Royer 1/2)
