On a night when DU had no business winning on the road at St. Cloud their goaltender stood tall and three Freshman fowards had a coming out party of epic proportions. Glenn Fisher led the way with 47 saves and Brock Trotter, Tyler Ruegsegger and Rhett Rakhshani had two goals and three assists between them. Then when the game was on the line DU's first unit led by Patrick Mullen salted the game away in overtime.

St. Cloud deserved to win outshooting the Pioneers 50 to 23 and only committing two penalties. But at the end of the day, DU's perseverance won out.

Junior Defenseman Andrew Thomas scored his fourth career goal in the Second Period and it appeared that the rout was on as DU led 3-0. But seconds later St. Cloud stormed back and DU had to hold on for dear life in a wild Third Period.
