North Dakota and Denver only mustered a combined eight shots on goal — four each — in a scoreless first period. That ties a Frozen Four record set on March 30, 1996, when Colorado College (5) and Michigan (3) combined for eight first-period goals in the national championship game.<\/p>\n
The Pioneers didn’t get their first shot on Fighting Hawks goalie Cam Johnson until more than eight minutes had passed, during their first power play, resulting from a hooking call on North Dakota’s Coltyn Sanderson at 7:45.<\/p>\n
Denver looked as if it might be close to going on a five-minute power play at 13:40 when North Dakota’s Rhett Gardner cross-checked Nolan Zajac along the end boards. A minor was assessed on Gardner.<\/p>\n
