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

1) Bobcats over Crimson in key ECAC battle<\/strong>
\nIn one of the most anticipated games of the weekend, second-ranked Quinnipiac shut out No. 8 Harvard, 3-0 on Friday at Bright-Landry Hockey Center.<\/p>\n

The Bobcats were led by goaltender Yaniv Perets, who made 25 saves for his sixth shutout of the season and 17th of his career.<\/p>\n

Skyler Brind’Amour, Cristophe Tellier, and TJ Friedmann scored for Quinnipiac, which swept the season series from the Crimson.<\/p>\n

Quinnipiac followed that up with a come-from-behind, 4-2 win at Dartmouth on Saturday, allowing the Bobcats to maintain their five-point lead in the ECAC Standings over second-place Cornell.<\/p>\n

Perets currently leads men’s Division I in goals against with a 1.72 GAA. His save percentage of .921 is tied for 12th nationally.<\/p>\n

2) Logjam in Big 10<\/strong>
\nMichigan’s sweep of Wisconsin, coupled with Ohio State’s split with Penn State and Michigan State’s sweep of Notre Dame has set up a four-way tie for second in the Big Ten standings.<\/p>\n

The sixth-ranked Wolverines and No. 7 Ohio State have two games in hand on No. 9 Penn State and No. 17 Michigan State.<\/p>\n

Rookie sensation Adam Fantilli had a goal and four assists for Michigan on the weekend, extending his scoring streak to eight games. He leads the nation with 45 points. Michigan has now won five games in a row.<\/p>\n

Top-ranked Minnesota was idle last weekend and holds a 13-point lead on the four teams tied for second.<\/p>\n

Wisconsin dropped its fifth game in a row. The Badgers have not won a conference game on the road since Oct. 29, 2021, a span of 20 games.<\/p>\n

3) Golden weekend for Denver<\/strong>
\nNo. 4 Denver played just one game last weekend, but it was a big one. The Pioneers defeated state rival Colorado College, 4-1 in Colorado Springs.<\/p>\n

A third-period penalty shot by CC’s Hunter McKown on DU goaltender Magnus Chrona snapped a shutout streak by Chrona against Colorado College of 350 minutes and 11 seconds that included five consecutive shutouts.<\/p>\n

McKown’s goal was a beauty:<\/p>\n
