After defeating the Princeton Tigers and Denver Pioneers, the Ohio State Buckeyes will be flying out to Minnesota to play in just their second Frozen Four tournament.

In the CHL the Spirit are on their way to being swept by the Greyhounds, and the Prince Albert Raiders are giving the first over all Warriors some trouble.

L 5-2 - 1G, 1A

March 25th:  vs North Bay Battalion
W 4-3 - 0G, 0A, -2

In true Frontenacs fashion, they lost game one in a convincing manner and made everyone doubt their ability to get out of round one. They took game two, but the doubt is already planted in everyone's minds. Game three is a home game for North Bay but will be played in Sudbury, due to North Bay hosting the world curling championships.

The Bulldogs are expected to win the east but a shocking loss - no matter how close, no one expected it - cramps their plans to get a long break after round one.

The Raiders are fighting hard against the top team in the WHL, winning game one and taking them to overtime in game two. With the series moving to Prince Albert, the Raiders have everything going their way. If they can upset the Warriors, they can upset anyone.
