After starting 0-2-1, North Dakota has won four straight, including a weekend sweep of Wisconsin (photo: Bradley K. Olson).

Hosts Jim Connelly and Ed Trefzger look back on the weekend, including:

Arizona State, at 7-3-0 and with 11 goals on the season for Johnny Walker, splits the weekend with an overtime win over No. 6 Penn State Saturday.

Dartmouth’s 5-1 win over Quinnipiac — and Penn State’s loss — means no perfect records left in D-I men’s hockey. That win was the 400th for Bob Gaudet.

Denver swept Western Michigan leaving the Pioneers as the only unbeaten team (5-0-1).

Jeff Jackson earned his 300th win at Notre Dame in his 14th season with 2-1 win over Ohio State on Saturday.

Minnesota State stayed red hot with a sweep of Minnesota.

North Dakota swept Wisconsin, winning four in a row after 0-2-1 start.

Holy Cross believed to have its largest crowd in Hart Center history (2,502) for 3-0 loss vs. Providence

UMass and Providence continue to roll, will meet up Thursday and Saturday.

And UConn announced funding for a new arena, which will be only 2,500-3,500 seats, but they supposedly have waiver from Hockey East. They’ll continue to play some/all men’s games at XL Center in Hartford.

Plus: Union’s Cole Maier has seven points in three games.

And finally: Why you shouldn’t pay attention to the Pairwise Rankings this early — but why you should take notice of one of its components.
