Big Green roll to 8–0–0 while Miami and Alaska claim tournament titles

Hosts Jim Connelly (@jimmyconnelly), Derek Schooley (@derekschooley), and Ed Trefzger (@EdTrefzger) review games of the weekend and news of the past week.

Dartmouth continued its perfect start, moving to 8–0–0 with wins over Vermont and Merrimack. With Brown, Yale, Army, and New Hampshire ahead, a 12–0–0 pre-break record is suddenly realistic.
It was a light week nationally, but several top teams impressed:
  • No. 1 Michigan swept Harvard (5–1, 4–3 OT) despite a Crimson rally.
  • No. 3 Michigan State took two from Colgate
  • Sweeps also for North Dakota, Quinnipiac, and Minnesota State.
In holiday tournaments, Miami claimed the Friendship Four in Belfast, beating RIT and then-No. 20 Union for the title. Alaska won the Adirondack Winter Invitational, shutting out St. Lawrence and edging Clarkson. At MSG, BU beat Cornell 2–1 in Red Hot Hockey on a third-period goal from Cole Eiserman.
