UND 1, MSU-Mankato 0 — Riese Gaber 3 (Garrett Pyke, Cameron Berg) 6:14 (pp). With Jackson Blake leaving the game with an injury, Gaber goes back to the right flank on the power play. He gets a look and buries it for his 100th-career point. He's the first to join it since Jordan Kawaguchi and second since Drake Caggiula. UND's power play moves to 3-for-5 on the weekend (and one of the five chances was only for a few seconds).
UND 1, MSU-Mankato 1 — Will Hillman (Kaden Bohlsen, Jordan Steinmetz) 8:20. Bohlsen leaves a puck behind the net for Hillman, who picks it up, skates into the right circle, turns around and snaps a shot before defenseman Garrett Pyke can get his stick on it. The puck goes just inside the post for Hillman's first goal of the season.
MSU-Mankato 2, UND 1 — Sam Morton 4 (Brett Moravec) 19:05. UND turns the puck over several times trying to break the puck out of the zone and it eventually ends up in the back of the net. Moravec intercepts a Louis Jamernik V outlet pass and feeds Morton for his fourth of the season.
Scoreless.
