The eyes of all Minnesota hockey fans were on Bemidji, Jan. 18-19, as the city hosted FOX Sports North’s 13th annual Hockey Day Minnesota on the frozen shores of Lake Bemidji. For the first time in the event’s history, the schedule was extended to three days and featured five outdoor games on a rink constructed adjacent to the Sanford Center’s parking lot. In addition to three high school games, BSU’s men’s and women’s teams each played one game outdoors as part of their weekend WCHA home series. The men’s team used a power-play goal with less than two minutes remaining in overtime to topple Michigan Tech, 4-3, in the event’s Jan. 18 evening game, braving temperatures that dipped as low as 15 below zero — the coldest outdoor game in college hockey’s modern era. The BSU women’s team fell 2-1 to Minnesota State on Jan. 19,  in temperatures as low as 5 degrees below zero at the game’s opening faceoff.
