Boxscore

PRINCETON, N.J. -- The eighth-ranked Princeton men's hockey team used a pair of shorthanded and power-play goals to defeat 16th-ranked Nebraska-Omaha 5-1 on Tuesday night. Seven players had two points in the win, including senior Lee Jubinville who scored twice.

Leading 2-1 late in the second period, the Tigers killed off three consecutive penalties, including 1:55 of skating two men down. The Tigers gained momentum from the kill and scored twice in the final two minutes of the second period to build an insurmountable lead.

"The kill was the turning point of the game," said Princeton head coach Guy Gadowsky. "A bounce the other way and the game could have been tied, but the killers did a great job, led by [junior goaltender] Zane Kalemba."

Following the kill, junior Mark Magnowski scored on the power play and Jubinville scored shorthanded to give Princeton a 4-1 lead after two stanzas. Magnowski's goal came as junior Jody Pederson carried the punk in the zone and fed sophomore Mike Kramer, whose wrist shot hit the post and settled on the goal line for Magnowski to push across. The power-play marker was his team-leading seventh of the season.

Jubinville's goal came with 11 seconds left in the period and came shorthanded on a breakaway. Senior Brett Wilson won a defensive zone draw and Pederson cleared the puck off the glass and into the neutral zone, where Jubinville picked it up and skated in for the goal.

Princeton scored the game's first goal at 6:11 of the first period also shorthanded. Sophomore defensemen Taylor Fedun trailed the rush and buried sophomore Matt Arhontas' pass by UNO goaltender Jerad Kaufmann. Magnowski also had an assist on the goal. The Mavericks evened the score at 1-1 when Nick Von Bokern scored with 22 seconds left in the period.

"Fedun played an excellent game," added Gadowsky. "He was strong offensively and defensively and his goal early gave us the spark we needed."

Jubinville capped the scoring in the final period on the power play. Fedun and Wilson added assists on the goal.

Kalemba made 27 saves for the win, while Kaufmann stopped 21 in a losing effort. Kalemba is now 12-1-0 on the season.

Princeton improved to 12-2-0 overall while UNO fell to 12-5-3. The Tigers return to action Saturday night against Harvard at 7 p.m.
