With the Beavers’ strong start to the season, the team is now 1-0 overall and 1-0 in the Midwest Collegiate Hockey conference; a good way to start in their new conference. The offensive play from Minot State far surpassed Illinois’, finishing the game with an impressive 38 shots collectively. Christian Kadolph broke the tie with just seven minutes left to play, assisted by Ben Johnson. Jake Anthony’s 17 saves allowed him to earn his 13th shutout, putting him in third for all-time career shutouts behind head coach Wyatt Waselenchuk who finished his career with 15.
Minot State will look to hand Illinois its second straight loss and keep the win streak rolling right into its next two away games before heading home for the home opener on October 18th. Tune in Saturday night to see if Illinois can get one back in front of a home crowd.
