Saturday marks the ninth all-time meeting between North Dakota and Quinnipiac; North Dakota currently leads the series with five wins, two losses, and one tie. Their last encounters occurred during the 2022-23 season when both teams played to a high-scoring tie before Quinnipiac won their second game in Grand Forks.
This upcoming game is also notable as it will be only the third time these teams have met in an NCAA Tournament setting—North Dakota has claimed victory in each of their previous tournament meetings.
As both programs look to advance deeper into postseason play, Saturday’s outcome will determine which team secures a place among college hockey’s elite at this year’s Frozen Four.
