FARGO, ND (KVRR) – The Fargo Force’s bid for a second Clark Cup in the last three seasons fell short as the Chicago Steel took home the trophy for the second time in four years with a 3-1 win at Scheels Arena.
The Force fell behind 1-0 before a 1st period goal by Cody Monds tied things up. 2022 UND commit Jackson Blake, who scored the game-winning goal in the Minnesota Class AA title game last month, gave Chicago the lead on a goal in the 2nd. Chicago would add another to take the series three games to one.

(Fargo, ND) Tonight’s game was all Chicago as the Steel defeated the Fargo Force in game three of the Clark Cup Final series 7-1.
The Steel struck first in period one with a powerplay goal midway through the first period. However, Fargo answered back 13 seconds later with a goal from Cody Monds off a nice set up by Tristan Broz. Then with under a minute remaining in the period the Steel found the back of the net once again taking a lead they would maintain throughout the remainder of the game.
Chicago tallied 5 more unanswered goals throughout the second and third periods putting on an offensive and defensive clinic. The Force will look too rally back tomorrow night as tomorrow night is a must win for Fargo to keep their Clark Cup hopes alive.
