Szwast)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>(1) Cornell at Brown<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t see Cornell squandering their first week atop the rankings. This should be a win for the Big Red.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) Cornell at Yale<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think this will be as easy a win as Cornell had the first time these two faced off this season, but it\u2019s likely still a win for the Big Red.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(6) Ohio State at (2) Wisconsin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both teams have a lot to prove after their last series. I expect we\u2019ll see a split or even a tie or two. Sunday\u2019s game is on the large Kohl Center ice, which will prevent an interesting challenge for both teams and makes it pretty difficult to know who will prevail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) Northeastern vs Providence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Providence is one of the teams that\u2019s tripped up the Huskies this season. This is a home and home series, but I\u2019m not sure location will matter much. The Friars looked like they could make waves early on, but have been relatively quiet since then. I think Northeastern sweeps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) Princeton at St. Lawrence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Tigers took their first meeting this season 6-2 and there\u2019s no compelling reason to think that this game will go much differently. I do think it\u2019ll be closer, but the Tigers will still get the win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) Princeton at (6) Clarkson<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a toss-up for me. Both teams have elite forwards and stingy defense. I expect it them to be incredibly closely matched. I\u2019ll pick the Tigers as the higher ranked team who\u2019s looking to hold on to their conference and national rankings, but either team could take this one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(10) Quinnipiac at (6) Clarkson<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The two teams tied earlier in the year and Clarkson has a very tough weekend of games. There could be some looking ahead for the Golden Knights. Quinnipiac has to hold them in check on defense because they don\u2019t have the firepower for more than one or two goals against Clarkson, I think. I\u2019m picking Clarkson, but think this one is a good pick for an upset.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(8) Minnesota Duluth at Minnesota State<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well the Mavericks showed what they\u2019re capable of last week and they\u2019ll be riding a high. That being said, Maddie Rooney is in the opposing net, which changes a whole lot of things. She\u2019s been particularly solid the past few weeks and her play is going to bolster the Bulldogs as they try to push into the national tournament. I think UMD sweeps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(9) Boston University vs New Hampshire<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Wildcats got an early win over the Terriers, but the BU roster looks different now and they\u2019ve done nothing but improve in the months that have passed since then. Boston University may have a bit of a Beanpot overtime hangover, but I think they\u2019ve had this weekend in mind for a bit to make up for that early stumble. I have BU sweeping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(10) Quinnipiac at St. Lawrence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to pick St. Lawrence at home as a flyer here. Both squads are jockeying for position and I think the Saints pull this off.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(10) Harvard at RPI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d feel better if I knew who Harvard has in net this weekend, but even still, I think this is a game they win regardless.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(10) Harvard at Union<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the Crimson have too many offensive weapons for Union to withstand. I pick Harvard to win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Robert Morris at Mercyhurst<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Colonials have a one point lead over the Lakers at the top of the CHA. Both teams are also trying to hold off Syracuse. The likely outcome is that these two split the series and we&#8217;re no closer to figuring out who will win the title, but maybe we&#8217;ll see some more chaos here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LIU at Saint Anselm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A single point separates these two in the NEWHA standings and they&#8217;re just a step behind Franklin Pierce, who&#8217;s currently in second in the conference. Saint Anselm swept earlier int the year, but I think at the very least we&#8217;ll see a split.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wisconsin looks to rebound against Ohio State, Clarkson hopes to solidify their spot in the national conversation with a win over Princeton and Robert Morris and Mercyhurst faceoff for the top spot in the CHA. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":102,"featured_media":107979,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[934],"tags":[819],"coauthors":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 -
