Today’s issue (#535) is our weekend preview. There aren’t many significant Pairwise games, but several big conference games are on the docket.

One game with significant Pairwise implications is Penn State vs. Minnesota, which also impacts the Big Ten standings. The Nittany Lions are one of the hottest teams in the country, and Minnesota has been one of the nation’s best all season.

Other games/series we’re previewing:

• HEA: Merrimack vs. Providence

• ECAC: Clarkson vs. Quinnipiac

• CCHA: St. Thomas vs. Michigan Tech

• NCHC: Omaha vs. Arizona State

I also have Friday picks.
