I think ND played pretty well but not well enough to beat a team with 14 NHL draft picks (including four 1st rounders). Minnesota scored on the PP when Ali took a cross checking penalty late in the 1st and two more when Janicke was whistled for a major late in the 2nd. The Irish scored a PP goal of their own in the 3rd. Minn added an EN late in the 3rd.

ND's newly constructed 1st line showed promise. It featured Nelson flanked by Knuble and Ali on the wings. They spent a lot of time in the offensive zone and had quite a few good scoring chances.

The Irish will have to play a nearly perfect game to win tonight.
