## Resource

Hosts Jim Connelly (@jimmyconnelly), Derek Schooley (@derekschooley), and Ed Trefzger (@EdTrefzger) review games of the weekend and news of the past week. In our first segment, we look at some sweeps and five-point weekends. North Dakota, Denver, and Western Michigan got NCHC sweeps while Michigan in the Big Ten and UConn in Hockey East picked up five. In our second segment, we discuss the implications of a late-season bye week as four top-20 teams had last weekend off. This episode is sponsored by the NCAA Men's Frozen Four, April 9 and 11 in Las Vegas. Tickets: https://ncaa.com/mfrozenfour Find all of our podcasts at USCHO.com/podcasts
