Each week, USCHO.com will pick the top 10 moments from the past weekend in our Monday 10 feature.<\/em><\/p>\n

1. No. 16 Penn State continues to roll<\/h4>\n

With a home sweep of Wisconsin in their opening weekend of Big Ten play, the Nittany Lions have improved to 8-0-0, the best start in the program\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The 4-0 Saturday win was the first career shutout for junior Liam Souliere, whose 1.50 goals-against average and .945 save percentage put him within the top 10 in both categories among goalies nationally.<\/p>\n

Through eight games, the Nittany Lions are averaging 4.62 goals per game, second nationally to B1G rival Michigan.<\/p>\n

Penn State remains the only undefeated squad among teams with more than two games played this season.<\/p>\n

Wisconsin falls to 2-6-0.<\/p>\n

2. Vegas loves the Sun Devils<\/h4>\n

Trailing 2-0 by the midway point of the first period, Arizona State scored three unanswered goals to beat No. 6 North Dakota 3-2 in the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game in T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Juniors Matthew Kopperud and Lucas Sillinger scored the first two ASU goals and senior Robert Mastrosimone had the game-winner less than a minute into the third period.<\/p>\n

North Dakota is the highest-ranking team knocked down by the Sun Devils since Arizona State beat then-No. 4 Denver in 2019. With the loss, the Fighting Hawks are 3-3-1 on the year so far.<\/p>\n

Following a sweep of Colorado College Oct. 21-22, Arizona State extends its win streak to three games. The Sun Devils are now 3-0 all-time in games played in Las Vegas. They\u2019re 5-4-0 overall this season.<\/p>\n

3. Vegas loves college hockey<\/h4>\n

The attendance at the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game in T-Mobile Arena, home of the Las Vegas nights was 15,503. By all accounts, the vast majority of fans in attendance were rooting for North Dakota.<\/p>\n

According to Grand Forks Herald<\/em> reporter Brad Elliott Schlossman, Fighting Hawks fans traveled from all over the U.S. \u2013 and some internationally \u2013 for the game.<\/p>\n

Here's the latest map on where fans are traveling from to attend the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game. I believe I count 84 different cities in North Dakota, 94 in Minnesota… as well as a lot of states. https:\/\/t.co\/grI9TzzXmA<\/a><\/p>\n
