As the Gophers left the ice for the second intermission Saturday, head coach Brad Frost planned a quick detour to the coaches’ room to check on a game happening more than 600 miles away.
Much to his liking, Frost found Ohio State had completed the upset of No. 3 Wisconsin, opening the door for No. 2 Minnesota to clinch the WCHA title if it could break the scoreless tie against No. 6 Minnesota-Duluth in the third period.
