It's hauntingly familiar to CC

Colorado College let a win slip away as the Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs rallied during the third period at World Arena for a 4-3 victory in Western Collegiate Hockey Association play Friday night.

The Bulldogs (6-2-1, 3-1-1) scored twice, with the game-winner coming at 4:52 left, silencing the announced crowd of 6,962.

CC gave the fans something to get loud about late, when the first penalty of the third period was called with 2:24 remaining, on Minnesota-Duluth’s Scott Kishel. Another penalty on Jordan Fulton gave the Tigers a 5-on-3 advantage, becoming a 6-on-3 with a minute left when CC goalie Joe Howe was pulled for an extra attacker.

The resulting 6-on-3 just proved frustrating for the Tiger fans as shots sailed wide or were deflected away by Bulldogs defenders.

The game ended with a 6-on-4 CC advantage as the Bulldogs celebrated their fourth win in World Arena in a row. Duluth is 4-0-1 in their last five in Colorado Springs, including last season’s playoff sweep.
