Confetti rained down on the Wells Fargo Center ice in Philadelphia, but to the Gophers men’s hockey team, it might as well have been rain.
Minnesota lost 7-4 to Union in the NCAA final, ending a dream season in the sourest way.
Minnesota struck first about three minutes into the first period with a goal from freshman forward Justin Kloos. Union responded seven minutes later with a goal from Shayne Gostisbehere. Then about 40 seconds later, junior forward Sam Warning put the Gophers ahead again.
