Two second period goals by sophomore Tyler Madden broke open a 1-1 tie and propelled No. 11 Northeastern to a 4-1 win over No. 14 St. Cloud State in the USCHO Game of the Week.<\/p>\n

The win improves Northeastern to 4-0-1 on the young season, while St. Cloud (0-1-2) suffered its first loss at home since March 10, 2018. A year ago, St. Cloud was 17-0-1 at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center.<\/p>\n

John Picking opened the scoring at 8:32 of the first. The two clubs traded goals early in the second as Sam Hentegs scored on the rush before Madden picked up his fist of the game at 9:37. It was Madden’s second goal, coming with just 36 second left in the second, that was the back breaker.<\/p>\n

Biagio Lerario added an empty-net tally to seal the victory for Northeastern.<\/p>\n

The two teams will face-off again on Saturday evening to close out the two-game series.<\/p>\n

No. 8 Minnesota Duluth 5, No. 20 Minnesota 2<\/strong>
\nA desperate Minnesota Duluth team grabbed a 3-0 lead early, and watched host Minnesota rally to within a goal before third period goals by Koby Bender and Scott Perunovich put the game away.<\/p>\n

The victory ended a two-game losing streak for the defending national champs which began the season ranked number one before dropping three of its first four games.<\/p>\n

The Gophers dug a big hole early before Ben Meyers goal in the final minute of the second and Sammy Walker’s tally at 8:36 of the third brought the crowd at 3M Arena alive.<\/p>\n

Bender, though, had a response to rip momentum away from Minnesota, scoring just 69 seconds after Walker cut the lead to one.<\/p>\n
