Semifinal Match-Up: Minnesota vs. Bemidji State
The Beavers have played the Gophers tightly this year, with a win and a tie back in November and two close losses on the last weekend of regular-season play. Minnesota needs to create offense and connect on plays even against BSU’s tough defense. Production on the power play would also help the Gophers win the special-teams battle. For Bemidji State, the key will be breaking up Minnesota’s chances from in tight, and making sure they get shots off when they create chances of their own.
Semifinal Match-Up: Wisconsin vs. North Dakota
UND has yet to beat Wisconsin this season, but has looked much better since the last time these two faced off back in December. If the Badgers can stick to their guns and control play, they should dominate possession and give up few quality chances to North Dakota. For UND, the key will be breaking up that possession and forcing the Badgers to chase and regroup as often as possible.
