Cale Morris made 44 saves in earning the shutout as Notre Dame remained undefeated in Big Ten play at 5-0 and improved its nation-best winning streak to eight games, defeating Minnesota, 1-0. Andrew Oglevie scored the only goal of the game early in the second on a power play when he came down the slot and fired a wrist shot that deflected off someone up in front and bounced in the air and behind Minnesota goalie Eric Schierhorn at 1:43. Schierhorn made 22 saves in the loss.<\/p>\n

Minnesota was relentless, forcing Morris to make 17 saves in the first period and 15 more in the third. The Gophers had a late power play attempt and rang one shot off the right post, and also forced Morris to make a fantastic glove save off a shot by Rem Pitlick to preserve the win.<\/p>\n

Minnesota had one last chance with a faceoff late, but Oglevie made clever use of his stick to intercept the pass between the two defenseman and knock it out into the neutral zone. Oglevie then raced in and eventually shot the puck into the empty net, but it was ruled that time expired before the shot went in, so the game ended 1-0 for Notre Dame, which improved to 11-3-1 on the season.<\/p>\n
