Next weekend should be fun, eh? Falcons will face a Mavs team that will most likely be 2nd or 3rd in the nation. Just two points separate the two teams in the WCHA as well.

BG has three different players in the top-10 of scoring in the nation, yet there are no Falcons nominated for the Hobey Baker this year.
That’s a pretty egregious snubbing.

In happier news, Eric Dop and Zack Rose were both nominated for the Mike Richter Award which recognizes the top goaltender in Division 1 college hockey.
