“It’s frustrating. We had opportunities that we didn’t capitalize on. It was a tight game.”
The Red jumped out to a 3-0 lead early in the first period, but allowed four unanswered goals before equalizing late in the second and forcing overtime.
“You don’t win many games when you play that way. We were fortunate.”
“We took it personally last year and it’s gonna be a battle out there.”
Seven skaters scored, 13 registered points, and nine had multiple points as Cornell completed a six-point weekend.
Cornell used a solid defensive effort and three goals from defensemen to get past the Engineers.
Ian Shane’s 21 save shutout led Cornell to a win over top-ranked Quinnipiac.
For the second year in a row, Quinnipiac will come to Lynah as the top-ranked team in the country to open the spring semester.
Cornell relinquished three leads over the course of the game and allowed a disastrous game winning goal with three seconds left in a gut-wrenching loss.
The Red will hope to build on its success when it visits rival B.U. on Saturday to close out its non-conference slate.
