For the first time in nearly four years Minnesota and North Dakota will meet in a regular season hockey series. Its like those far flung relatives you haven’t seen in a few year, but still hate when they come to visit. You can try and forget about them when you don’t see them, but all the memories and feelings come back when they reenter your life. And their car just pulled up outside your front door.
Minnesota and North Dakota. Its one of hockey's more storied rivalries. Sure there have been down periods, but in the last 16 years especially, these two teams have matched up to create some of college hockey’s most memorable moments.
