BRIAN O'NEILL
Yale
So. | F | Yardley, Pa.
His Statistics: 2GP, 2-3-5, +3 plus-minus rating
His Impact: Yale's high-scoring sophomore was involved in a very good weekend for the defending ECAC Hockey champions. After a so-so start to the season, the Bulldogs earned a 4-2 win over unbeaten Cornell and rallied for a 3-3 tie against first-place Colgate. O'Neill factored in prominently with two goals and three assists on the weekend.
He assisted Yale's first goal as well as the eventual game-winner in the victory over Cornell and sealed the victory with an empty-net goal. In Saturday's game against Colgate, Yale trailed 2-0 in the second period before O'Neill's goal got them on the board. He then assisted Sean Backman's goal later in the period to pull the Bulldogs to within 3-2.
