The Sun’s weekly hockey newsletter is back! Space here to stay up to date on everything about Cornell Hockey.
For the second time in a row, men’s hockey No. 8 welcomed ECAC’s last-placed team to Lynah Rink. After suffering a shocking loss to Princeton last Friday, Cornell had decided not to notice Dartmouth as he prepared to face Harvard tomorrow night.
Dartmouth proved to be a great opponent, holding the lead at the end of the third set and forcing Cornell to settle for a draw. Red lost the penalty shootout and finished one league point.
As of last week, on paper, the smaller opponent hit first in Friday night’s game. Haiskanen scored a stumbling block just before the 14-minute mark in the first set, sending Dartmouth into the first power game of the evening. Big Green took the win 12:36 left when Ian Pierce buried the rebound that bounced into the slot and gave Dartmouth a 1-0 lead.
Unlike in the game against Princeton, where Cornell let his opponent jump into the 3-0 lead, Red didn’t let Dartmouth extend his lead after letting the first goal of the game.
Cornell did not score in the first, but ended the 7-6 lead in the shots. Red had a lot of opportunities. However, several shots and deflections passed, and Dartmouth’s Clay Stevenson suppressed the puck without allowing rebounds.
Last Saturday, Red scored two goals in a power game against the country’s best penalty killing unit at Quinnipiac. On Friday night, Red had three power game opportunities in the second period, but they were empty of all three.
Cornell failed to record a shot on the first use of force. It did a little better with its second chance after Stevenson made his first real attack of the night. Junior striker Ben Berard collected the rebound and fed it across the spot to junior striker Matt Stienburg, who was unable to combine a one-shot. Red was closest to the goal in his last power game of the period, when a shot from junior striker Jack Malone from the circle rang but bounced out.
Despite a lack of success in the power game, Cornell leveled the score over the eight-minute mark in the second round as freshman striker Justin Ertel grabbed the puck through wrinkle for freshman striker Ondrej Psenicka, knocking it out and leveling the score 1-1. .
Dartmouth responded quickly. Two minutes later, Big Green returned to the lead as a shot from behind the circle changed direction in traffic and grabbed fresh goalkeeper Ian Shane out of place. Dartmouth’s Mark Gallant buried his gaze in the open section of the net and took Big Green to a 2-1 lead.
Still looking for a handicap, Red started the third round strongly. Cornell fired in the first 10 shots of eight episodes, including a series of shots in the power game at 16 minutes. Red’s first power line had a long possession of several good-looking ones, but nothing got past Stevenson.
Cornell got their fifth power game of the night 10:37 left, but rose again from scratch after four fights by Stevenson.
The defense of Stevenson and Dartmouth knocked out Cornell all night, but especially during the third inning. Cornell won the Dartmouth 15-3 third set in the first 15 minutes and had several extra shots blocked or passed.
With five minutes left, junior striker Matt Stienburg hit the boards hard. Cornell responded and the teams got to the point after the whistle. After a lengthy review, officials assessed Dartmouth with a five-minute large penalty that got Cornell a man for nearly the rest of the season.
Cornell slowly started their five-minute power game, but found a tie at 2:22 when junior striker Jack Malone grabbed a one-off Stevenson blocker.
Despite two more minutes in the power game, Cornell could not find the winner of the game in the final minutes of the rule.
For the second consecutive game, Red stepped on the ice for three to three overtime. Unlike Saturday’s match against Quinnipiac, where Cornell won the game’s winner with 16 seconds left, neither team scored in extra time and the game ended in a draw.
Under the new rules of the league, teams competed in the penalty shootout for an extra league point. Dartmouth won the penalty shootout and took two league points.
Cornell is aiming to recover tomorrow night when it faces Harvard.
