The University of Denver Pioneers defeated the Boston University Terriers 2-1 in OT

Tristan Brose scored in overtime to give the University of Denver a 2-1 win over Boston University on Thursday and send the Pioneers to the NCAA finals.

Brose carried the puck into the offensive zone about eight minutes into overtime, then pulled it back, screened in front of the Boston University goaltender and slotted it through the five-hole for the game-winner.

The win sends the Pioneers, who have six Albertans, including five from the Calgary area, into the NCAA final against the winner of Saturday's semifinal between Michigan and Boston College.

Calgary-born goaltender Matt Davis scored a sensational goal for Denver, and in the third, Lae saved BU from the post on a shot that would have given BU a one-goal lead.
