Abbey Murphy would tie the game in the 2nd period with her 30th goal of the season. They would skate the rest of the way without scoring and go to the shootout. Skylar Vetter shut the Bulldogs out in the shootout and Ella Huber would push a goal across to get the Gophers the extra point in the conference standings.

The Broncos would score twice in the first half of the third to tie things up at 3-3.  It looked like St. Cloud had won it with 1:38 to play on a goal by Veeti Miettinen but the replay determined no conclusive goal so the game went to overtime.  Western Michigan would score 2:00 minutes into overtime to steal the victory from St. Cloud State.
