            <description>At the end of a game that saw Denver bend but not break, it was apparent that the Pioneers were well versed in what they were doing and how they were going to accomplish it.Denver hasn&#039;t always won Frozen Four games the pretty way during its remarkable run, at least on paper, often getting heavily outshot. But there is a method to the madness, keeping shots to the outside, not getting flustered, knowing...</description>

            <description>In Denver, at DU&#039;s Magness Arena, fans have grown fairly accustomed to tradition — including of course the now-longstanding tradition of winning national championships, a tradition that began with No. 1 in 1958 under Murray Armstrong and that continued on a memorable Saturday evening on the Las Vegas Strip, with the David Carle-led Pios extending their NCAA record total to 11.Tradition implies continuity...</description>

            <description>As skaters took turns hoisting the national championship trophy over their heads, blaring throughout T-Mobile Arena was “All I Do Is Win.”A typical song to play after championships have been won.But the song seemed especially poignant, given that Denver was doing the winning. Because, really, all Denver seems to do is win, win, win, no matter what.It was most aptly put by Paxton Geisel, a Denver...</description>

            <description>Wisconsin goaltender Daniel Hauser sat at his stall, goalie pads, jersey and skates still on, as a teammate came up and hugged him.All around the locker room, the rest of the Badgers were doing the same: sitting in their gear, some with towels over their hair, some with their heads in their hands, some with tears.“This team means everything to me,” sophomore Ryan Botterill said. “These are all...</description>

            <description>St. Cloud State has named Nick Oliver its new head coach, replacing Brett Larson, who went to Minnesota.CHN reported last week that the job was Oliver&#039;s to lose, but an announcement was likely being delayed by Wisconsin&#039;s continued participation in the NCAA Tournament. Oliver, a St. Cloud State alum, has been on the Wisconsin staff as an assistant. The Badgers lost the NCAA national championship game...</description>

            <description>Hagen Burrows ran through the hallway and into the Denver locker room.“Never a doubt,” he yelled.For Denver, sure, the players always believed, why wouldn’t they?However, after two periods of Saturday’s national championship, it did not look good for the Pioneers. Wisconsin held a 1-0 lead, outshooting Denver 21-5.“I don&#039;t think it was as bad as it looked,” Denver coach David Carle said...</description>

Johnny [Hicks] kept us within striking range...</description>

            <description>Max Plante delivered a season worthy of college hockey’s highest individual honor — and on Friday night in Las Vegas, it was officially recognized.The Minnesota Duluth sophomore forward was named the Hobey Baker Award winner at the Frozen Four, capping a dominant 2025-26 campaign. Plante finished with 52 points — 25 goals and 27 assists — in 40 games, emerging as one of the most dynamic offensive...</description>

            <description>On a sunny, 83 degree afternoon in the middle of the driest desert in North America — hosting, as it were, the NCAA Frozen Four for the first time — eyes and ears of the college hockey world turned to the annual &#039;State of the Game&#039; press conference.But it doesn&#039;t require showing up to this panel to know that the state of college hockey is one of massive transformation. And it felt appropriate ...</description>

            <description>For Denver, a team lauded with some of the best offensive defensemen in the game, it was almost inevitable that a Pioneer blueliner would eventually net the game-winning goal.Now, with 42 goals coming from Denver’s d-corps, there are plenty of options to choose from. So, guess who it was?Guess again. And again. Once more, for good measure.Still guessing?“It was amazing to see Kent Anderson get...</description>

            <description>This year was going to be different, and for most of it, it was.Michigan has been loaded with talent over the last five years, and made four Frozen Fours. It&#039;s been similar in that regard to its opponent Thursday, Denver. But the one thing that Michigan didn&#039;t have was a national championship, and as a result, Denver zoomed past the Wolverines for most championships in history.But this year, Michigan...</description>

            <description>For a moment, Denver goaltender Johnny Hicks — the remarkable, unassuming and undefeated freshman who has written his own story since taking over as the starter in January — looked down and out.Lying motionless on the ice after a high-velocity collision sent Michigan freshman Malcolm Spence barreling over him, Hicks stared up at the ceiling of a suddenly hushed T-Mobile Arena. On the Denver bench...</description>

            <description>A lot changes in four years. Players, teams, transfer portal rules.So for Mike Hastings, what happened four years ago has little bearing on what will happen in Saturday’s national championship game.Back then, Hastings was the head coach at Minnesota State, while Todd Knott, his current associate head coach, was on his staff. It was Hastings’ 10th season with the Mavericks. Minnesota State made...</description>

            <description>Perhaps it was due to a lack of sleep after the late, double-overtime victory, where Denver likely was not tucked into bed until around midnight, but coach David Carle made a slight blip when talking about his 2022 national championship team.“Obviously, we have great memories of that night,” he began. “Matty Davis — sorry, Magnus Chrona — was excellent for us through the first two periods...</description>

            <description>Kent Anderson, perhaps the most unlikely of heroes for Denver, crept down from the right point midway through the second overtime, took a feed from Kristian Epperson, and buried just his second goal of the season to send the Pioneers back to the national championship game.&quot;Our guys found a way to win a game,&quot; said Denver coach David Carle. &quot;Johnny was obviously excellent for us. Kent with a huge goal...</description>

            <description>A golden opportunity presented itself. North Dakota failed to seize it.When Wisconsin’s Joe Palodichuk was sent to the box for interference, it gave North Dakota 1:57 of 5-on-3 power play time.Trailing 2-0, it was the opportunity North Dakota needed. Up to that point, the Fighting Hawks were struggling to find their bearings. They were sloppy with the puck, slow to pucks and were being outplayed...</description>

            <description>On Saturday, Ben Dexheimer will play in his 149th and final game for the University of Wisconsin, when as captain he&#039;ll lead the Badgers — upset winners over North Dakota in the national semifinals — into their first national championship game since 2010.Of course, the Edina, Minn., native has seen plenty in his career. As a freshman, he played for head coach Tony Granato, and the Badgers struggled...</description>

            <description>Wisconsin held on to beat North Dakota, 2-1, on Thursday night in the first game of the Frozen Four. The Badgers’ offense struck less than a minute apart in the first period, and they held off a late North Dakota surge to advance to the national title game for the first time since 2010.&quot;We knew North Dakota would be a very difficult out,&quot; Wisconsin coach Mike Hastings said. &quot;They were.

The four teams that comprise the Frozen Four are the top four teams, in terms of National Championships, in college hockey history.But it has been 28 years since the Wolverines have won a title. In that time, they have lost the top spot in that category to the team they play Thursday...</description>
