Men's Hockey Edged by Cornell in Double-Overtime in ECAC Semis
March 21, 2009 | Men's Ice Hockey
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Cornell's Colin Greening scored midway through the second overtime to lift ninth-ranked Cornell to a 4-3 win over the eighth-ranked Princeton men's hockey team on Friday night in the ECAC Semifinals at the Times Union Center. Princeton junior Cam MacIntyre had a goal and two assists for Princeton in the loss.
Princeton built a 3-1 lead in the game with two goals in the second period and one in the third before Cornell netted two goals in the final three minutes of the game to force overtime. The teams played an end-to-end first extra session with each team having 10 shots. Cornell won the game at 9:54 of the second overtime when Greening scored through a screen with a high shot that bounced off in the inside post.
The Tigers took a 1-0 lead 1:40 into the second period when sophomore Sam Sabky scored his fifth goal of the season by pushing home a rebound. MacIntyre skated the puck through the neutral zone and got a shot off the Cornell netminder Ben Scrivens stopped, but the rebound was left for Sabky.
Cornell answered back at 7:15 when Tyler Mugford scored out of a scrum in front of the Tigers cage, but Princeton regained the lead at 14:03 when junior Dan Bartlett scored a wraparound goal. Realizing Scrivens was on the post, Bartlett went around the net and banked a shot off Scrivens into the cage as he dove through the crease. MacIntyre and sophomore Matt Godlewski assisted on the goal, which was the fifth of the postseason for Bartlett, who has goals in five straight games.
MacIntyre pushed Princeton's lead to 3-1 at 11:09 of the third period when he drove to the net and lifted the puck over Scrivens. The goal was the first of the season for MacIntyre, who has been hampered by injuries for much of the season. Bartlett had an assist on the goal.
The game remained in Princeton's favor until Evan Barlow brought Cornell within a goal at 17:08 with an unassisted tally while the team's skated four aside. Barlow skated into the Princeton zone and waited for Princeton junior goaltender Zane Kalemba to make the first move before scoring.
Cornell then pulled Scrivens late in the period and Riley Nash converted on the extra-attacker goal by sliding a loose puck into the crease just before Kalemba could put his catching glove on top of it. Greening and Michael Kennedy had assists on the tying goal.
Kalemba finished the night with 39 saves, which ties a career high for the junior. Scrivens made 37 saves in the Cornell goal as Cornell held a 43-40 shot edge.
Princeton falls to 22-11 with the loss and will take on St. Lawrence tomorrow at 4 p.m. in the ECAC's third-place game, while Cornell will face Yale in the title game.
