TROY — Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute has endured four excruciating overtime losses this season and unlike pro hockey, teams get no standings point for extra-session defeats.

The Engineers were leading that game, 3-2, with 4:40 remaining and were on their way to a victory that would have given them a 4-1-1 record in a six-game span and would have evened their ECAC Hockey record at 6-6-1.
