The Michigan Wolverines (30-9-1) will face the Quinnipiac Bobcats (32-6-3) on Sunday night in the Allentown Regional Final. Winner advances to the Frozen Four next weekend; loser catches up on Bridgerton.
Stylistically, Quinnipiac presents a unique challenge to the Wolverines with a defensive scheme that will test Michigan’s discipline as much as their skill.
The Bobcats are the best defensive team in the country and have only allowed 46 goals in 41 games this year. Their goaltender Yanlv Perets ranks first in the country in goals-against-average (1.066) and second in save percentage (.
