Men’s hockey gives up 13 goals on road

Every hockey campaign has its ups and downs. It’s pretty clear how the Yale men’s team would classify this weekend.

The Bulldogs (12-11-4, 8-8-4 ECAC) stumbled against rivals Harvard (13-11-3, 11-7-2) and Dartmouth (10-13-4, 5-12-3) on the road, giving up a total of 13 goals and seriously hindering their chances of earning a bye in the first round of the ECAC playoffs. And the losses came on the heels of what head coach Keith Allain ’80 had called one of the best weekends of the year — a sweep of St. Lawrence and No. 12 Clarkson at the Whale.

watching friday night's game v Harvard was a replay of the same event last year: the problem is not shaky goaltending but shaky defending and unnecessary (ie dumb) penalties. One Y player alone accounted for 3 penalties in the first 30 minutes of play = 6 out of 30 mins or 20% of the playing time. you are not going to beat harvard down a man. another penalty came with 19 seconds to go in a period! why isnt this team smarter about penalties?

look on the bright side, at least no one our team is facing kiddie porn charges. I can't say the same for Brown, though.
