Opening Face-OFF• Leading at the Polls: Four women's Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) teams are in the top-10 of the national opinion polls,

including three in the top-five. The four representatives match ECAC Hockey for the most of any conference.• Wisconsin remains No. 1 in both the USCHO.com and USA Today / USA Hockey Magazine polls, followed by No. 2 Minnesota, No. 4

Minnesota Duluth and No. 9 North Dakota.• Winning Hockey: Not surprisingly, the WCHA has five teams in the top-16 nationally for both overall wins and winning percentage.

• Wisconsin is tied for second in the NCAA with 14 wins, while Minnesota is tied for fourth with 13, Minnesota Duluth is tied for eighth with 10, and North Dakota and Ohio State are both tied for 14th with seven wins apiece.

• The Badgers' .906 winning percentage (14-1-1) ranks second nationally, the Gophers are third at .875 (13-1-2), the Bulldogs are tied for seventh at .719 (10-3-3), the Fighting Hawks are 14th at .562 (7-5-4) and the Buckeyes - despite being just under .500 - are in the upper 50-percent of NCAA teams at .469 (16th, 7-8-1).

• Border Battle: The eyes of the college hockey world will be on Madison, Wis. and LaBahn Arena this weekend, as No. 1 Wisconsin hosts No. 2 Minnesota in the latest installment of the Badgers-Gophers "Border Battle."

• This will be the 13th and 14th meetings since 2008 between teams ranked Nos. 1-2 in the USCHO.com poll - with all of those matchups being Minnesota-Wisconsin games. The Gophers have gone 7-2-3 in that span.

• The teams played six epic games in 2015-16, with each team winning three. Both teams earned regular season sweeps on home ice, Wisconsin captured a 1-0 victory in the WCHA Final Face-Off championship game, and Minnesota won 3-2 in overtime in a NCAA Frozen Four semifinal. Three of last season's games went to overtime.

• Minnesota holds a 48-29-9 lead in the all-time series, including a 16-3-1 advantage in the last 20 contests.• WCHA on FOX: Sunday's series finale between the Gophers and Badgers will be aired live on FOX Sports Wisconsin and FOX Sports North

(FSN), marking the first of a nine-game WCHA package on FSN.• The region’s preeminent sports network will televise eight regular season contests during the 2016-17 campaign, plus the WCHA

Final Face-Off championship game.• Brian Posick (play-by-play) and Bill Brophy (analyst) will handle broadcast duties for this Sunday's Border Battle.

• We Are WCHA: Once again, the top-four teams in NCAA D-I women's hockey for average and total attendance are WCHA schools.• Wisconsin leads the country with an average of 2,168 fans per game at LaBahn Arena; Minnesota is second by welcoming 1,563

each night to Ridder Arena; Minnesota Duluth ranks third by hosting 1,041 per contest at AMSOIL Arena; and, North Dakota is fourth with an average of 943 per game at the Ralph Engelstad Arena.

• Nonconference Success: The WCHA went 5-4-1 in nonconference play last weekend, and continues to have the nation's best winning percentage in such contests at .768 (20-5-3).

By The numBers • 1-2-3: NCAA rank in points-per-game, respectively, for the Minnesota line of junior Kelly Pannek (2.00), senior Dani Cameranesi (1.88) and

sophomore Sarah Potomak (1.69). Pannek leads the country with 24 assists and 32 points, Cameranesi is tops with 18 goals and Potomak paces the nation with five game-winning goals and a +26 rating.

• 2: Shutouts this season by St. Cloud State's Janine Alder, second among NCAA freshmen and the most ever by a SCSU rookie.• 10: Straight games in which Ohio State has not allowed a power-play goal, matching St. Lawrence for the NCAA's longest active streak. The

Buckeyes' penalty-kill is 19-for-19 in that span; by comparison, five NCAA teams have allowed at least 10 power-play goals in their last 10 games.

• 31: Active home unbeaten streak for Wisconsin, the longest in program history. The Badgers have not lost at LaBahn Arena since Feb. 20, 2015 (a 2-1 setback to St. Cloud State).

• 199: Career points for Minnesota senior Dani Cameranesi (93g-106a), one shy of becoming the 19th player in WCHA history (since 1999) to reach the 200-point plateau. She would become the sixth Gopher since 1999 to reach that mark (eighth overall in program history).

The Week ahead• Full Slate of WCHA Series: In addition to the aforementioned Border Battle between No. 1 Wisconsin and No. 2 Minnesota, three other

WCHA series are on tap this weekend:• Bemidji State at Minnesota State: Intra-state rivals meet for the first time this season. The Beavers are on a nine-game winning

streak and lead the all-time series, 35-24-10.• No. 4 Minnesota Duluth at St. Cloud State: These Minnesota schools are also playing for the first time in 2016-17. The Bulldogs

went 2-1-1 against the Huskies last season and are 56-11-5 all-time against SCSU.• No. 9 North Dakota at Ohio State: The Fighting Hawks hit the road for the first time since Oct. 29, while the Buckeyes open a four-

game homestand. UND is 7-2-1 in the last 10 meetings, but OSU leads the all-time series by a narrow 24-22-4 margin.

Friday, the Badgers put up 54 shots on the visiting Big Red, but did not convert until past the midway point of the third period when Baylee Wellhausen put UW ahead. Soon after, Sarah Nurse and Annie Pankowski added some insurance to give the Badgers the 3-0 win. Freshman goaltender Nikki Cece tallied her first career shutout, stopping all 11 shots she faced. Saturday's contest saw a 2-2 tie after the first period, but the Badgers scored three unanswered over the final two stanzas for the 5-2 victory.

But UMD would tie things up with just over a minute left in regulation off the stick of Brykaliuk. It was another senior who would be the hero as defenseman Sidney Morin got the game-winner in overtime period to secure the road sweep for the Bulldogs.

Pannek led all NCAA skaters with seven points, three power-play points and one game-winning goal, con-tributing three goals and four assists overall as No. 2 Minnesota swept visiting Bemidji State. The junior from Plymouth, Minn. also ranked second nationally with a +4 rating and a 3.50 points-per-game average (tops in the WCHA), while she added three blocked shots and 21 face-off wins. Pannek factored in three of the Gophers’ goals in a 4-0, series-opening victo-ry last Friday, assisting on two scores (including the game-winner) and adding a goal of her own. She then played a role in every Minnesota tally during Satur-day’s 4-1 triumph, including back-to-back goals just 15 seconds apart to give the Gophers a 2-0, first-period lead they would not relinquish. This is Pannek’s second WCHA weekly award of the 2016-17 season and sixth career accolade (including three Rookie of the Week honors).

Mo-rin tied for the WCHA scoring lead among defensemen with two points, while ranking second with six blocked shots and a +3 rating.

WiscOnsin TaBBed as preseasOn FavOriTe ByWcha cOaches

Defending league regular season and back-to-back playoff champion Wisconsin is the preseason pick of conference coaches to finish atop the women’s Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) standings in 2016-17. The Badgers edged out defending national champion Minnesota in the poll of the eight WCHA head coaches.

Wisconsin ended Minnesota’s three-year reign atop the WCHA standings last season with the fifth regular season crown in program history, and league coaches believe Mark Johnson’s team will repeat in 2016-17. The Badgers, who advanced to the Frozen Four last year and won 35 games – the fourth-most in school annals – collected six first-place votes and 48 points overall.

Minnesota is coming off a campaign which saw the Golden Gophers win their fourth national championship in five seasons, the seventh in school history and the 16th in 17 seasons for the WCHA. The Gophers placed second in the coaches’ poll with 44 points and two first-place votes.

A pair of 2016 Final Face-Off participants, North Dakota (36 points) and Minnesota Duluth (30) finished third and fourth, respectively.

Bemidji State, which set a program record with 22 wins last year, was selected to finish in fifth place with 27 points. St. Cloud State (16 points), coming off its best campaign since 2009-10, was tabbed for sixth. Ohio State and Minnesota State rounded out the poll.

Wisconsin senior goaltender Ann-Renée Desbiens, who broke NCAA single-season records in 2015-16 for shutouts (21), save percentage (.960) and goals-against average (0.76), was the coaches’ preseason choice for WCHA Player of the Year. Her Badgers teammate, junior forward Annie Pankowski, along with senior forwards Dani Cameranesi (Minnesota) and Minnesota Duluth (Ashleigh Brykaliuk), also received votes.

Three players received two votes apiece and tied as the choice for preseason WCHA Rookie of the Year: Minnesota forward Lindsay Agnew, along with Wisconsin forwards Presley Norby and Abby Roque. Ohio State defenseman Jincy Dunne and North Dakota forward Ryleigh Houston each received a vote.

BeaversBemidji sTaTe universiTy

• The Bemidji State women’s hockey team will look to rebound this weekend against Minnesota State University, Mankato after being swept by No. 2 University of Minnesota last weekend.

• The Beavers were outscored 8-1 in the series with the second-ranked Gophers despite a career performance by senior goaltender Brittni Mowat.

• Mowat stopped 92-of-100 shots by the Gophers, the most saves by any goaltender in the NCAA over the weekend. She compiled a .920 save percentage and 4.00 goals against average.

• The Beavers were shutout in game one of the series, 4-0, by junior Sydney Peters who stopped all 18 shots by BSU. Mowat made 47 saves during the game, the most in her career since, Oct. 31, 2014 (also against Minnesota) and second-highest total in her career.

• She followed the 47-save performance by stopping 45-of-49 shots in game two where the Beavers fell 4-1 in the game. Senior Madison Hutchinson scored the lone goal for Bemidji State to pull the Beavers within one with one period to play but two goals gave Minnesota the 4-1 victory. Freshman Jacqueline Kaasa tallied the lone assist on Hutchinson’s goal.

• With her goal against Minnesota, Hutchinson is tied for second in the WCHA among defensemen scoring with nine points (4g-5a) and is second on the team in goals (4) behind sophomore Emily Bergland (5). Hutchinson trails league-leader Sidney Morin (UMD) by one point for a share of the conference lead.

• Bergland’s team leading 10 points (5g-5a) still remains in the top 20 in scoring in the WCHA despite only scoring one point in the last eight games. She is tied for 18th in the league while Hutchinson follows tied for 22nd. Emma Terres (3g-4) is tied for 33rd with seven points.

• Terres has tallied most of her points while on the power play and has four (2g-2a) points with the extra attacker. She is currently tied for ninth in the conference in power-play points.

• The Beavers will travel to Mankato, Minn., this weekend to face the Mavericks for the first time this season. The Beavers are 35-24-10 all-time against Minnesota State and are currently on a nine-game winning streak against the Mavericks. Bemidji State swept MSU in all four games last season including a pair of 3-1 and 2-1 victories in Mankato. Lauren Miller is the active leading scorer against Minnesota State and has tallied nine points (4g-5a) in 12 career games. Junior Alexis Joyce follows with seven points (2g-5a) in eight career games. Head coach Jim Scanlan is undefeated against the Mavericks and holds an 8-0-0 record.

• Puck drop for each game, Dec. 2-3 in Mankato is scheduled for 2:07 p.m.

• Minnesota owns an all-time record of 48-29-9 against the Badgers. The team has gone 16-3-1 during their last 20 games against Wisconsin, three of which were victories in the postseason. Minnesota and Wisconsin split their 2015-16 series with each team taking home three wins in six meetings. Pannek (1g-4a), Taylor Williamson (1g-3a), Hannah Brandt (4a), and Potomak (3g-1a) led the Gophers to their success against the Badgers last season.

• Pannek (8g-24a), Cameranesi (18g-12a), and Potomak (11g-16a) rank first, second, and tied for third in the NCAA in points per game, respectively. Cameranesi's 18 goals and 1.12 goals per game are an NCAA-best, and Pannek leads the NCAA with 24 assists and 1.50 assists per game. Potomak's five game-winning goals are tied for the NCAA lead.

• Cameranesi is one point away from becoming the eighth Gopher in program history to reach 200 career points. She is Minnesota’s active career scoring leader with 199 career points (93g-106a) to rank eighth in program history.

• After a two-point weekend against the Beavers, Schipper (30g-69a) is one point away from her 100th career point.

• North Dakota hits the road this weekend, taking on Ohio State for a pair of conference games on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 2-3. Friday’s game will start at 6:07 p.m. (CT), with Saturday’s being played at 3:07 p.m. (CT).

• The Buckeyes narrowly hold an edge in the all-time series against UND, with a 24-22-4 mark. Ohio State is also 15-8-1 against UND in Columbus, but the Fighting Hawks have seen more success as of late with a 7-2-1 record in the past 10 games played against the Buckeyes. Amy Menke leads UND in career scoring against Ohio State with eight goals and five assists. The next closest UND skater in points is defenseman Halli Krzyzaniak, who has two career goals and six assists against the Buckeyes.

• The Fighting Hawks split its nonconference series with Syracuse, as the two teams traded 3-0 scores last weekend. The Orange won the first game of the weekend, handing UND its first Friday loss of the season, while UND came back to win Saturday’s contest for its fourth shutout of the season.

• Friday’s loss to Syracuse saw the Orange block a total of 28 shots as UND was only able to get 19 shots on net. UND still out-shot Syracuse, 19-16, but the Orange scored two backdoor goals for a 2-0 lead before scoring an empty-net goal to seal the win.

• On Saturday, North Dakota scored on the power play in the first period for its first goal of the weekend. The Fighting Hawks then added a goal in both the second and third periods for a 3-0 final. UND out-shot Syracuse again, but this time limited the Orange’s blocked shots to just 13.

• Senior Lexie Shaw currently ranks fourth among WCHA goaltenders with a .939 save percentage and third with a 1.44 goals against average. She is tied for fourth among the nation’s goalies with four shutouts this season. Shaw has also played a major role in UND’s penalty kill which ranks third in the nation with a .924 efficiency.

• The Fighting Hawks rank seventh nationally among senior scoring, as the UND senior class has totaled 46 points so far this season.

• North Dakota’s freshman class is second in the WCHA, fifth in the nation, with 32 points on the season, stemming from 15 goals and 17 assists. All eight freshman skaters have already recorded a point, and the class is led by Emma Nuutinen who has seven goals and one assist; her seven goals ranking fifth in the nation among freshman. She also leads the nation’s freshmen in shooting efficiency (.233).

• Five of UND’s seven defensemen have scored goals this season, with Gracen Hirschy leading the group with three goals. Additionally, the UND defensemen have totaled 23 assists, and have generated one third of UND’s scoring this season.

• The Fighting Hawks are undefeated (7-0-3) when scoring the first goal of the game. On the flip side, UND is winless when its opponents score first (0-5-1).

• North Dakota has only lost twice in its last 18 games (4-2-12) that have gone into overtime. The last overtime game that UND lost was on Oct. 17, 2014 to then-No. 8 Bemidji State.

BuckeyesOhiO sTaTe universiTy

• There are only two teams in the country who have not allowed a power play goal in their last 10 games: Ohio State and St. Lawrence. The Buckeyes have killed 19 penalties during that stretch without conceding a power play goal. For comparison’s sake, five teams have allowed at least 10 power play goals in their last 10 games.

• Kassidy Sauve owns a save percentage of .948, fourth-highest in the country. She also still holds the top spot in shots faced (543). She’s one of six goalies across the country with at least four shutouts.

• Last season Ohio State won twice against a ranked opponent and both times were against North Dakota, once at home and once on the road.

• Jincy Dunne leads all freshmen defensemen with eight points and is fourth nationally among that group.

• Dunne and her teammate Dani Sadek have excelled at blocking shots this season; the duo have blocked 35 and 34, respectively, and sit in the Top 5 in the WCHA.

• In its most recent outings, St. Cloud State fell to Vermont, 5-1, and Robert Morris, 5-3, at the Windjammer Classic in Burlington, Vt. Tylke and freshman forward Kayla Friesen tied for the team lead with three points apiece on the weekend. Senior forward Lauren Hespenheide scored her first goal of the season against RMU, a power play marker that snapped SCSU's 0-for-17 stretch with the man advantage that dated back to its October 22 game at Minnesota State.

• Thirty-five of the 85 matchups between the Badgers and Golden Gophers have been decided by one goal or less, while 18 games have gone into overtime, including three last year. UW and Minnesota split their series, 3-3, last year with UW defeating the Golden Gophers, 1-0, in the WCHA Final Face-Off championship game, while UM topped the Badgers in the NCAA Frozen Four.

• Wisconsin is coming off of a non-conference sweep of Cornell, as UW blanked the Big Red 3-0 on Friday before earning a 5-2 win on Saturday. Annie Pankowski recorded three goals in the sweep, while Sam Cogan enjoyed a three point weekend.

• Freshman netminder Nikki Cece was named the WCHA Rookie of the Week for the first time in her career, stopping 23 of the 25 shots she faced from Cornell. The rookie earned her first career shutout in UW’s 3-0 win.

• Wisconsin leads the country in home attendance, averaging 2,168 fans per game. UW has enjoyed two sellouts this year and has had a crowd of over 2,000 fans at five of its six home games this year.

• Wisconsin enters the weekend with a 31-game home undefeated streak, its longest such streak in program history. During the streak, UW has outscored its opponents 133-15 for a goal differential of 118. UW has also earned 18 shutouts during the run. The Badgers went a perfect 21-0-0 in home tilts a year ago.

• Six Badgers were selected to various Hockey Canada national teams on last Wednesday. Junior Emily Clark, senior Ann-Renée Desbiens, former Badgers Meaghan Mikkelson and Blayre Turnbull and incoming freshman Sophie Shirley were selected to the 22-player roster that will compete for the Canadian National Women’s Senior Team against the United States in a two-game series in December. In addition, Clark and senior Sarah Nurse were selected to compete for Canada’s National Women’s Development Team at the 2017 Nations Cup in Germany and Austria, Jan. 4-7.

• Pankowski moved into 17th place in school history in career points as the Laguna Hills, California, native now has 113 points. The U.S. national team player has six goals in her last three games, including a hat trick in UW’s 4-1 win over UMD on Nov. 19.

• Nurse leads Wisconsin with 12 goals and 18 points this season. Nurse became the 22nd member of the century point club at UW in the Badgers’ series against Bemidji State (Nov. 5-6). She passed Brittany Ammerman for 10th in school history with her 63rd career goal last Friday night.

• Desbiens leads NCAA in goals-against average with a 0.74 clip while her six shutouts also pace the NCAA. The La Malbaie, Quebec, native also sports a .958 winning percentage, which ranks second in the NCAA and a .953 save percentage that ranks third.

• The Badgers have one of the most balanced offenses in the NCAA this year, as 16 different Badgers have combined to score 58 goals this year. UW’s 3.62 goals per game average ranks third in the country and paces the WCHA.

• UW sports the nation’s second-best defense, holding opponents to an average of 1.00 goals per contest. Last year the Badgers broke the NCAA record for scoring defense, holding opponents to an average of 0.72 goals per game.
