No one can say that Union and Minnesota didn't earn their spots in the national championship game. After an exciting Frozen Four semifinal Thursday, the Dutchmen and the Gophers eked out one-goal wins to advance to the national championship game. Union was able to ward off a late rally from Boston College, while Minnesota stunned North Dakota with a buzzer-beating, shorthanded winner. The Gophers are seeking their sixth all-time national championship, while the Dutchmen are seeking their first ever title in their first ever appearance.
