ASU Hockey: Sun Devils nearly sweep, settle for tie with No. 4 Denver
Richard Martinez/House of Sparky40 seconds separated Arizona State (8-4-2) from the most historic regular season sweep in program history.
No. 4 Denver (9-4-3) pulled its goaltender, and things were dwindling down to the final moments of crunch time. ASU just needed one clear from its defensive zone to seal a victory.
However, it would come to no avail. The Pioneers tied it on a one-timer from sophomore forward Cole Guttman, as the puck just trickled under the glove of ASU sophomore goaltender Evan DeBrouwer and past the goal line.
After a five minute overtime period, ASU and Denver would have to settle for a 2-2 stalemate at Gila River Arena.
