Freshman defenseman Sam Labrecque (Granby, QUE) scored a goal
and set up another as the Clarkson University Hockey team skated to
a 2-2 tie at Bentley College on Saturday night. The Golden Knights,
who own a six-game unbeaten streak (5-0-1), closed out the
season-opening, non-league portion of the schedule with a 5-1-2
overall record. The Green and Gold open up ECAC Hockey play hosting
Capital District rivals Rensselaer and Union at Cheel Arena next
weekend.
Clarkson overcame a 1-0 first-period deficit to Bentley (1-5-1)
with a pair of goals early in the middle frame to hold a 2-1 lead
through 40 minutes.
Just 36 seconds into the stanza, and four seconds after a power
play began, the Knights got on the scoreboard. Sophomore Ben Sexton
(Kanata, ONT) won a faceoff back to Labrecque at the right point
where the rookie rearguard fired in a low slapshot for his second
collegiate goal.
At 4:04, seconds after a Clarkson power play had ended, senior Nick
Tremblay (Candiac, QUE) picked up a rebound off a shot by Labrecque
and knocked in his fifth goal of the season to put the Knights into
the lead. Senior Louke Oakley (Whitby, ONT) also assisted.
Midway through the third period, the Falcons caught a break to tie
the game when a wide shot by Brett Hartung deflected off a Clarkson
player and redirected past senior goaltender Paul Karpowich
(Thunder Bay, ONT) to make it a 2-2 game.
Clarkson outshot Bentley 34-31, including a 5-2 margin in the
five-minute overtime session. Karpowich posted 29 saves.
The Knights continued their string of scoring a power-play goal in
every game this season, going 1-of-6 with the man advantage against
the Falcons. Bentley was 1-of-4 on the power play.
