This Just In: Harvard's Good

One of the few consistent bright spots on the unit, sophomore center Dominic Moore, had a hand in two of those goals. He posted one and added an assist on freshman winger Tim Pettit's tally. Moore has played a role in five of Harvard's nine special teams goals to date.

Unfortunately, B.U.'s stellar power play unit, which, at 25% puts the Terriers near the top of Hockey East in that category, capitalized on its ample opportunities to mar Harvard's perfect penalty kill record.

The Crimson played anything, but 60 minutes of dominant, flawless hockey.

"I don't think we played well five-on-five," Mazzoleni said. "But we were opportunistic and got some bounces."

To say that Harvard won the game with superb goaltending and a little bit of luck would be an understatement.

B.U. did just about everything in its power to keep itself in the game, outshooting the Crimson, 29-18. But it was crippled for three periods with a woeful inability to finish the job.

The Terriers dominated play throughout the entire second period and the last half of the third, forcing Harvard to spend a considerable amount of time in its own zone.
