Mavs lead 2-1 after 1st period
Quinnipiac outshot UNO 12-11 in the first but the Mavs take a 2-1 lead into the first intermission. Despite the shot difference UNO had the better of the chances. It looked like the Mavs might put this one away early after taking a 1-0 lead on the power play but they couldn't stay out of the box. Andrew Schmit's goaltender interference call on the rush lead to a Quinnipiac goal three seconds into their power play.
The Mavs earned another chance at the end of the period and will start the second period with 1:50 of power play remaining. Massa has looked very good in goal thus far.

Mavs and Bobcats skate to 2-2 Tie
Uno gets three shots in OT - Quinnipiac one but no dice for either side
Quinnipiac up 2-1 Second Intermission
UNO had a large territorial and possession advantage for the first 15 minutes of the second but couldn't get anything on the scoreboard. The game kind of settled into a borefest until a 4 on 4 produced some open ice and several scoring chances.
Quinnipiac only got 5 shots in the second but scored on one, the Mavs only got 8 shots and got none past Hartzell. In real serious doo doo now. The Mavs nonconferenc record is not good. This is the only nonconference series they have left and with difficult conference games ahead they really need a sweep here to build a tournament resume. If UNO can't get even tonight and get two wins they had better hope they run through the WCHA or win the postseason tournament.

Mavs and bobcats tied 1-1 after First Period
Mavs outshot the Bobcats 12-6 in the first period and end the first 10 minutes tied 1-1. UNO got to their game pretty early, very aggressive on the forecheck and created a lot of opportunities. Two or three pileups at the UNO net with a loose puck but it never bounced to a Mav player.
Quinnipiac got the bounce- on the break the puck was blindly thrown at the UNO net. It came cross-crease to Russell Goodman who put it into an open net at 8:39.
The Mavs answered back at 16:04. On a break Johnnie Searfoss had the puck on the near wall, threw it towards Brent Gwidt streaking toward the Bobcat cage. The puck found Gwidt perfectly and he roofed it past goalie Hartzell to make it 1-1.
UNO starts out 2nd period on the penalty kill.
Though UNO is getting a lot of chances collapsing on the Quinnipiac net it's creating some breakouts for the Bobcats.
