Nice passing with Tuch setting up the defenseman to screen the goalie, 2-0 Buff.

Tristan Broz (PIT) has sent Denver to the national championship with the overtime winner over BU, and it was a rip. David Carle has led the Pioneers to the natty (again). Heck of a game. Macklin Celebrini’s freshman year is over.

Tristan Broz has sent the University of Denver to the NCAA championship game with a rocket of a wrist shot. 2-1 Pios
Caron has saved BU’s bacon! This has also been a strangely called game🤔 @TerrierHockey https://t.co/SVMUDgwoh0
Credit to Denver who, true to form, has worn BU down. Caron is keeping the Terriers alive in this. He's made some timely saves for sure. Still tied, little more than 3 minutes into the 4th period.
Boston University and Denver going to OT
We're heading to OT in BU-Denver game that's lived up to the hype. Caron has delivered when Terriers needed it. They've had to kill four power plays, still have some time on this one heading into OT
Boston U and Denver are headed to overtime here in St. Paul. Michigan-BC was set to drop at 8:30et but…yeah
Next goal's a big one in St. Paul. Boston U and Denver tied 1-1 after three periods. Pioneers will have 47 seconds of power-play time to start overtime.
ANOTHER GLOVE SAVE BY CARON 📺 ESPN2 #MFrozenFour x @TerrierHockey https://t.co/UG79JkPl7d
BU's Mathieu Caron has now made two crazy saves with his left arm. DU's Jack Devine collected a rebound at the edge of the crease and deked to his right but Caron lunged to deny him. Still 1-1, midway through the third
Caron! Again! @TerrierHockey
What a save by Caron here - holy smokes https://t.co/Pg8DTS2eTQ
The Caron highlight-reel save, one of the best I've seen in a long time https://t.co/SjwWjOTfpk
Mathieu Caron just made one of the best saves I’ve ever seen! @TerrierHockey and Denver tied 1-1 after two here in #MFrozenFour semifinal one here in Minnesota - @wbz https://t.co/EGdSVg8psW
Goaltending masterclass between the pass from Davis to the save from Caron
HIGHWAY ROBBERY!!!!! 😵 📺 ESPN2 #MFrozenFour x @TerrierHockey https://t.co/zNkV3zS88C
Wow what a hell of a save by Caron. A game-changer
BU leads DU 1-0 after one period. Shots are 10-3 for the Terriers. Pios are struggling to string passes together to get anything going on offense. Two of the best situations that might have led to good chances were broken up by crafty stick work from Macklin Celebrini.
BU up 1-0 after first period against Denver. Playing a fast game, quicker to pucks. Up 10-3 in SOG. Two big saves early by each goalie. A shorthanded goal by Tuch the only one so far
