Until overtime, it was the proverbial game that could have gone either way. In OT, however, Northeastern got the puck into the Maine zone early and kept it there until Eric Ortlip’s move to the net forced a holding penalty. On the power play, the Huskies got the game-winner at 2:31 on a Chris Lynch … Read more

What do you do after suffering a humiliating 10-1 loss and then see the number five team in the country as your next opponent? Giving a senior goaltender his first career start doesn’t rank high on the list of conventional solutions. Nonetheless, Jason Wolfe’s inaugural performance proved to be just what the doctor ordered for … Read more

It’s usually not a good sign when a coach uses his timeout only 1:24 into the game. By that point, Boston College had already seized a 2-0 lead over UMass-Amherst and appeared poised for a blowout when the margin expanded to 3-0 later in the first period. The Minutemen, however, regrouped, forging a 3-3 tie … Read more

Boston University and Northeastern continued to move in opposite directions Friday night, though the story was closer than the teams’ records might have suggested. Jay Pandolfo’s pair of tallies propelled BU past the homestanding Huskies 3-2.

He waited… and waited… and waited. Just when you thought that Alex Sikatchev had committed the cardinal sin of not even getting a shot off during a golden opportunity in the third period of a 1-1 game, he reached back and flipped the puck into the net.

Colin Hemingway scored two power-play goals, and New Hampshire netted four straight tallies to get by Maine 4-1 Saturday. The Wildcats stayed atop Hockey East, two points ahead of UMass-Lowell.

In the locker room between the second and third periods, the Ohio State players talked about finding ways to win. What they found was the oldest trick in the book. R.J. Umberger called for a Vermont defenseman to pass the puck blindly up the boards to him and the Catamount mistakenly cooperated. Umberger capitalized on … Read more

Denver came into the weekend as the only unblemished team in the nation, but at the Conference Classic Cup, it was host New Hampshire that showed the East isn’t ready to concede the top of the rankings.

In terms of territorial play, shots and almost every measure conceivable, New Hampshire dominated Ohio State. Even so, the game’s outcome remained in the balance with the score 1-0 until Josh Prudden’s power-play goal late in the second period gave the Wildcats a two-goal cushion they never relinquished en route to a 3-1 win. UNH … Read more

The fine line between winning and losing was on prime display as Northeastern took a two-goal first period lead despite being thoroughly outplayed and rode it to a 4-1 win over Clarkson. Two empty net Husky goals scored in the final minute provided a deceptive margin in an otherwise evenly played contest. “It’s a strange … Read more

River Hawk netminder Cam McCormick shut out UMass-Amherst 1-0 Friday, setting a new Lowell record for consecutive minutes without a goal with a 24-save effort.
