    Cornell’s goalie, Matt Galajda, was injured in last year’s ECAC Championship game so he did not play in the NCAAs against Providence.

      Yup, not that it hurt the Big Red against Northeastern

          While Providence “wins” the tournament of course it goes down as a tie record-wise

            True...still even a tie for the young Friar team against #2 Cornell is a + going forward. Friars played a good game.

            One more OOC against AIC in Springfield then it's all Hockey East games to finish the season. Hopefully they get a couple of the experienced guys back for the stretch run.

              That they did. OSU kinda sleepwalked through the previous night, so it was good for Cornell to get a wake-up call against a strong opponent. I could see these two meeting again in the NCAAs.

                Good weekend for the Friars! Hopefully they keep it going this month. Cornell is a strong team and Army has played well this season. Good start to the second half of the season.

                  The young guys are getting quite an introduction to college hockey, every game, no matter where played and no matter the opponent has been a real battle.

                    A little nervous about playing AIC in Springfield. they are 9-10-1 but they have a good home record and I'm cautious about these games since the Friars went to Worcester and lost to Holy Cross in overtime a few years back.

                        Friars va AIC tonight.

                        important game for PWR, not so much for going up more so for going down.

                        Nilsson out broken hand in Cornell game. O'Neill still out as well as Mirageas

                        game on flo hockey if you have it. 104.7 radio including Tune-in, Friar All Access if you have that. 7:05 puck drop

                            Made the trek out there. I was worried about whether the atmosphere of playing in a 7-8k seat arena with at best 1k people would hurt the Friars. After a pretty even first period, PC really took control of the game in the second dominating possession. AIC did make a little bit of a press to start the third period but Lackey came up with some solid stops.

                            Dugan continues to be a blessing while the bottom six on this team does need to just not give up goals and they will be a tough out in the NCAA tourney.

                            I thought Davis Bunz had a poor game tonight with multiple turnovers but Ford looked faster than I remembered and made several little plays.

                              It worked out.

                                Agreed on the bottom 6. However, we do need some production, especially when against the country’s best.
                                Sukumaran needs to start producing, he’s proven he’s done it before in the bottom 6 in previous seasons.

                                Fourth line has been doing a great job cycling, wearing down the d’s
                                We need some physicality there as well to really allow guys like Dugan and tyce to take advantage of tired teams late in games.

                                Overall, team is trending in the right direction, really promising.
