Re: Notre Dame vs. Colgate - Shillelagh Tournament, Game 2

Rough start for Colgate, taking the penalty then giving up the goal. Lots of puck possession for the Irish, and Colgate did not generate any real chances offensively. Gotta get the puck before you can do anything with it. Kill off the early penalty, and they're still very much in this game

Some stats from GameTracker
