Tigers Split Halloween Weekend Series Against the Bulldogs

The Colorado College Tigers had an impressive showing during Halloween Weekend. In their first game against a team in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC), the then No. 9 ranked Tigers faced off against the No. 7 Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs. Both the Tigers and Bulldogs have high-level goalies. Each goalie has a save percentage this year above 94%, and both allow just a little over one goal per game. On Friday night, the Tigers skated onto the ice with confidence from a successful past few weekends. The first period opened with the Tigers and Bulldogs in a heated back-and-forth. Both teams tried to get a shot to the back of the net but failed. As the first period ended, Ryan Koering was called for the only penalty of the game for tripping; the Tigers’ powerful penalty kill prevailed yet again. The game remained scoreless, and the Tigers still had 30 seconds of the penalty to kill off. The second period was similar to the first.
