POTSDAM, N.Y. – For the second time in two weeks, the
Dartmouth men’s hockey team was unable to find the back of
the net as Clarkson defeated the Big Green (4-4, 3-3 ECAC Hockey)
Saturday night at Cheel Arena.
Senior goaltender Jody O’Neill (Nepean, Ontario) got the
start in goal for the second night in a row and made 27 saves for
the Big Green. Clarkson’s Paul Karpowich turned aside 37
shots in recording his third shutout of the season to help the
Golden Knights (7-4-3, 2-3-1 ECAC Hockey) to the league win.
Clarkson’s captain Jake Morley scored his first of the season
9:23into the first on a redirect that found its way through
O’Neill.
A flurry of offensive action saw both goaltenders with 16 saves in
the first period, with just the one goal scored.
Despite a combined six power plays in the second period, neither
team was able to get its offenses clicking as Allan
McPherson’s even-strength goal was the only tally for either
club in the middle frame.
Another redirect goal midway through the third from Morley in the
high slot made it a 3-0 game 10:35 into the period on his second of
the game.
An empty-net goal from Adam Pawlick made it a four-goal lead with
54 seconds left on the clock. The empty-netter wrapped up the
scoring and handed the Big Green a split on their first road trip
of the season after a 3-1 win at St. Lawrence Friday night.
Dartmouth was 0-for-5 on the power play as a result of a very
stingy Clarkson defense in front of a loud and supportive home
crowd. The Golden Knights were also 0-for-5 in the game as the Big
Green cleared several pucks away from the low slot and scoring
chances while down a man.
Dartmouth will be back in action at Thompson Arena Friday, Nov 25
as it plays host to Harvard at 7 p.m. After a one-day break, the
Big Green will then head to Burlington, Vt., to take on former ECAC
Hockey foe Vermont Sunday afternoon
NOTES: O’Neill made consecutive starts for the first time
since last season’s Ivy Shootout on Oct. 29-30, 2010 at
Princeton (W) and Yale (L)…Only once in the first eight
games this season has a team scored more than one goal in the first
period against the Big Green (Quinnipiac, 2 – Nov.
4)…Dartmouth was unable score in the first 40 minutes for
just the second time this season…
