Split Weekend at Mankato

Huskies Get Split at Mankato
The St. Cloud State Huskies were only able to manage a split this weekend against the Mankato State Mavericks losing Friday night and winning Saturday. The Friday night loss marks the first loss for the Huskies on a Friday night this season. The Huskies powerplay was ineffective going 0-for-5. Goaile Ryan Faragher continued to look pretty good despite letting 4 goals in. Unfortunately, the Huskies took another five-minute major penalty. It was the sixth major penalty taken by the Huskies for the season, the third straight game that they have had one. The goal scorers for the Huskies were Brooks Bertsch (Sam Zabkowicz, Jared Festler) and Cory Thorson (Mitch MacMillan).

The Huskies came out determined Saturday night scoring 2 goals in the first 2 minutes and getting another one in the first period. The goal scorers for the Huskies were Cory Thorson (Jarrod Rabey, Mitch MacMillan), Ben Hanowski (Andrew Prochno), and David Eddy (Kevin Gravel, Hanowski). The win on Saturday night was the first WCHA Saturday win this season for the Huskies this season. The Huskies went scoreless on the powerplay (0-for-3) again Saturday night. The lack of senior captain Drew LeBlanc was very evident on special teams this weekend. Mankato outshot the Huskies 31-19 in the contest. The Huskies will need to improve its special teams, stay out of the box, and figure out how to get more shots on goal before meeting with the Gophers next weekend.
