FINAL (OT)
UND 4 || ASU 3

The No. 16 Sun Devils fall short in overtime and settle for the weekend split against No. 14 North Dakota. Here are my takeaways from Saturday's game:

•This game, albiet an ASU loss, it a strong testament to this team's talent and potential to be great. They spent 16 minutes on the penalty kill, Powers said they, "couldn't have played sloppier at certain points," and it still took extra time for an extremely talented, blue-blood NoDak team to beat them. 
•Both teams appeared undisciplined, as they combined for 39 penalty minutes, which included a five minute major against North Dakota for head contact.
•North Dakota made some very effective adjustments following its 4-1 loss last night. It did a much better job pushing the Sun Devils to the outside and were the faster of the two teams tonight. 
•UND's power play dropped a good amount at the hands of ASU. Before this weekend, it was ranked third in the country, but after going one-for-eight against ASU's penalty kill (81%), it sits at eighth. 
•ASU HAS to improve on its faceoffs, especially in big moments. The Devils were up 3-2 when UND pulled its goalie, and couldn't win a single d-zone faceoff, which led to NoDak's game tying goal. Powers has talked about this all season.
