After leading his team to a second straight national championship, Minnesota Duluth sophomore defenseman Mikey Anderson has been selected the Hockey Commissioners\u2019 Association National Division I Player of the Month for March and April.<\/p>\n

Backstopping his team to the Frozen Four, Denver freshman goaltender Filip Larsson was named the HCA National Division I Rookie of the Month for March and April, while Massachusetts freshman goaltender Filip Lindberg has been named the National Goaltender of the Month<\/p>\n

Anderson, a Los Angeles Kings prospect, tied for the national scoring lead over the final two months of the season, racking up 14 points in 12 games from the blue line.<\/p>\n

Anderson dished out an NCAA-best 12 assists in March and April, including 10 to start the month of March during a career-long six-game point streak.<\/p>\n

Both of his goals over the final month and a half were scored in championship games, the first helping UMD win the NCHC tournament title as Frozen Faceoff champions, and the second in the Bulldogs\u2019 3-0 win over UMass in the national championship game. Anderson had a hand in all three goals to help UMD repeat as NCAA champions, assisting on the other two tallies. Four of his 12 helpers in March and April set up game-winning goals.<\/p>\n

Named to both the NCHC Frozen Faceoff All-Tournament Team and NCAA Frozen Four All-Tournament Team, Anderson also captured NCHC Defenseman of the Week honors on the penultimate week of the regular season. The honorable mention All-NCHC selection blocked 24 shots over the final two months of the season, which tied for second nationally, while posting a plus-14 plus\/minus, which was also second in the NCAA during March and April.<\/p>\n

Anderson tallied a point in eight of 12 games in March and April with five multi-point contests to close the season. He ended his sophomore campaign with 27 points on six goals and 21 assists in 40 games.<\/p>\n

The newest member of the Detroit Red Wings organization, Larsson, who signed last Monday, led the NCAA with a .957 save percentage during the final month and a half of the season, while compiling a 1.22 GAA, which ranked second in the country.<\/p>\n

Larsson posted a 5-3-0 record in March and April, while recording three shutouts, which was second nationally during that time. The NCHC All-Rookie Team selection pitched all three of his shutouts in the postseason, after only one in the regular season. His first came in a 32-save effort to open the NCHC playoffs against North Dakota, while he combined for 50 saves in the NCAA West Regional to blank Ohio State and American International on back-to-back nights March 29-30. He was named the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA West Regional and to the All-Region Team.<\/p>\n

Larsson compiled 223 saves and allowed only 10 goals in March and April. He finished his only season of college hockey with a 13-6-3 record, a 1.95 GAA and a .932 save percentage, to go with four shutouts.<\/p>\n

Lindberg led the nation in shutouts (4), GAA (1.19) and backstopped the Minutemen to their first national title game appearance in program history.<\/p>\n

He posted back-to-back shutouts in the NCAA Northeast Regional and was named to the All-Tournament Team for his performance. Lindberg did not allow a goal in four of the eight games in which he appeared.<\/p>\n

Lindberg posted a 6-2-0 record through the season\u2019s final two months, racking up a .947 save percentage. He was also twice named the Hockey East Rookie of the Week.<\/p>\n

In the national semifinals, Lindberg made a season-best 37 saves in UMass\u2019 4-3 OT win over Denver that sent the Minutemen into the national championship game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
