\n<\/div>\nThe Gophers (16-7-1, 11-6-1 WCHA) were outshot 16-3 in the first period, but they earned the period’s lone goal at 17:10. Andrea Nichols scored her fifth goal of the season on a power-play attempt as she batted in a rebound in front of the net. Jenelle Philipczyk assisted on the goal to extend her point tally to three for the weekend.<\/p>\n
Minnesota outshot UMD 16-6 in a penalty filled second period, but there were no points on the scoreboard.<\/p>\n
The Bulldogs added on the pressure in the third with 13 shots in the period. With 14:00 remaining, Chartier made a spectacular save as she grabbed behind her and stopped the puck from going in the net. The Bulldogs also had a five-on-three opportunity for over :46, but the Gophers and Chartier did not allow a goal.<\/p>\n
Becky Wacker cushioned the Gophers’ lead when she scored her second goal of the season at 11:00 of the third. Whitney Graft battled with a UMD player in the back boards and gained control. She then passed the puck to Wacker, who placed the puck through the five-hole for the goal.<\/p>\n
Chartier earned her 11th win of the season. She has now shut out her opponents for eight consecutive periods. The last time Chartier has given up a goal dates back to the Minnesota State 1-1 overtime tie on Dec. 10.<\/p>\n
Minnesota allowed three power-play goals yesterday, but stopped all nine Bulldog attempts in the 2-0 win. UMD had 13 shots on goal, but could not convert. Minnesota was one-for-seven with the extra attacker. UMD finished with 35 shots, while Minnesota had 29.<\/p>\n
The Gophers are on the road for the second straight week when they travel to Ohio State, Jan. 27-28 in Columbus, Ohio. UMD will play a pair at St. Cloud.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
