Gophers Take Over No. 1

The Gophers had the weekend off, but still came out on top! The WCHA leaders watched as second-place Minnesota Duluth only gained two points by splitting at Alaska Anchorage and then third-place Denver lost and tied with Colorado College.

Though the Gophers were off, they certainly can still be considered winnings. Here are the top five teams:

1. Minnesota 19-9-1, 15-5-0 WCHA

2. Minnesota Duluth 18-6-4, 12-5-3 WCHA

3. Boston University 16-8-1, 13-6-1 Hockey East

4. Union 16-6-7, 10-3-4 ECAC

5. UMass Lowell 18--7-0, 13-6-0 Hockey East
