Men's Hockey Takes 6-2 Exhibition Win Over Western Ontario
October 25, 2008 | Men's Ice Hockey
PRINCETON -- Sophomore defenseman Cam Ritchie had four assists as the ninth-ranked Princeton men's hockey team opened its season with a 6-2 win over Western Ontario in an exhibition game on Saturday afternoon at Hobey Baker Rink.
The Tigers got goals for six scorers, three of which were skating in their first game wearing the Orange and Black. Freshman Brodie Zuk got the scoring started 6:15 into the game when he scored on the power play while the Tigers skated with a two-man advantage. Ritchie and freshman Marc Hagel assisted on the goal, which was the first of five power-play goals in the game between the two teams.
The Tigers added to their lead 36 seconds into the second period when freshman Derrick Pallis scored on a shot from the point that was set up by Ritchie and junior Kevin Kaiser. Junior Kevin Crane made it 3-0 when his point shot banged off the inside post and wound up in the net following a face off. Ritchie also assisted on the goal.
Princeton made it 4-0 when junior Tyler Beachell scored at 15:10 of the period. The goal came off the rush as junior Dan Bartlett led sophomore Matt Arhontas into the zone. Arhontas couldn't get to the net and circled behind before laying the puck in the crease, where Beachell hammered it in.
Western Ontario got the next two goals to close out the period. Both goals came on the power play as Luc Martin and Aaron Snow helped the Mustangs cut the Tiger lead in half.
Princeton then scored twice in the final frame to secure the 6-2 win. First Kaiser scored an unassisted tally at 13:58 and sophomore Sam Sabky finished the scoring with his goal with eight seconds left.
All three Tiger goaltenders played a period in the game. Senior Thomas Sychterz made 14 saves in the first period to get the win. Sophomore Alan Reynolds made four in the second period and junior Zane Kalemba had nine in the third.
Princeton was 3 for 11 with the man advantage while the Mustangs were 2 for 12. Two of Princeton's goals came while the Tigers skated with two extra skaters.
Princeton opens the season next Friday at Brown at 7:30 p.m.
