Gophers-North Dakota Twi-lights: Szmatula, Lettieri score for Minnesota


The much-anticipated return of Gopher-Fighting Hawks hockey lived up to expectations and it was the Gophers who came out on top Saturday, 2-0, after a 5-5 overtime tie the night before. And it went down to the wire, with a penalty shot with just 39 seconds left.
Mike Szmatula and Vinni Lettieri scored for the Gophers. Check out the videos from Minnesota's home win.
