Notre Dame, Ind. - The Notre Dame hockey team will be without the services of junior right wing Erik Condra (Livonia, Mich.) for the remainder of the season, according to head coach Jeff Jackson. Condra suffered an injury to his left knee during the first period of Sunday's 2-1 win versus Ferris State in game three of the CCHAs best-of-three second round.

Condra, Notre Dame's leading scorer, played in all 41 games this season and had a career-best 15 goals with 23 assists for 38 points. He had career-highs with six power-play goals and three short-handed tallies while his four game winners equaled his mark from last season.

The Irish will be without Condra for the CCHA Tournament that begins this Friday, March 21 when the Irish face the Miami Red Hawks at 4:30 p.m. in one semifinal game with Michigan and Northern Michigan playing at 8:00 p.m. The third-place game and the CCHA Championship game will be played on Saturday, March 22 at 3:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. respectively at Detroit's Joe Louis Arena.
