There is only one personnel change from last night as senior Nick Larson steps in for fellow senior Nico Sacchetti. Coach Lucia is sticking with the same lines although they appear to be in order of match-ups. The “first” line of Kyle Rau, Nick Bjugstad and Zach Budish (who is back after being ejected from Friday’s game) are listed as the fourth line while the “fourth line” is listed as the second.
Defensively, Minnesota has the same pairs as Friday although Mark Alt and Ben Marshall are listed as the third pairing.
