3rd Period | 11:34: Thompson takes a heavy check near the boards from a Falcon. Looked like a shoulder-to-shoulder hit, but Thompson remains down on the play. Barber and Kalkis are in the boxes for penalties after the whistle.
1:05
Max Johnson was the one dealing the hit. It was shoulder-to-shoulder contact so I'd be very surprised if this draws a major in the review.
1:07
Barber and Kalkis' penalties are double minors for roughing after the whistle. No penalty on Johnson for the hit.

1:32
FINAL: Falcons take game one of this WCHA Playoffs Quarterfinals series 4-2 over the Nanooks. That's six season in a row that BG has won at least 20 games in a season.

This is correct. An LSSU and Tech series win would see the Huskies in BG next weekend (if the Falcons win their series as well).
@BGSUHockeySite Rooting for LSSU and Tech along with BG. Would allow BG to host next weekend.

Mavs will welcome the lowest remaining seed next weekend as they sweep UAA.
Empty net goal for Dallas Gerads make it 4-2. MSU will advance to the semifinals. A lot left to be decided in the league tonight and Sunday though.
