Sartell is ranked No. 3 in letsplayhockey’s most recent rankings and Potthoff has allowed 2.21 goals against average this season with a .859 save percentage. The Sabres play three road games this week at Elk River, Roseau and Bemidji before returning to the Scheels Athletic Complex Dec. 18 against Alexandria Area.
