...Nova Scotian combination last year when it so emphatically defeated King's College 9 to 1. Tonight's opponent, however, will be far more dangerous than last season's team from the same section of Canada. As in the Toronto game of January 4 in seems probable that Coach Claflin's men will be outclassed in skating and stick handling. The Toronto players were so much superior in these two departments that the fine teamwork of the Crimson sextet was of little avail. Tonight the playing of the University is sure to show a great improvement over that...
...early part of the work-out it was evident that it was the yearling's first experience on the Arena ice, but the novelty soon wore off, and the University skaters had to stiffen up in order to check the growing attack which the Freshmen were uncovering. Coach Claflin's men evidently were not expecting to find stiff opposition and seemed to fall back to their old fault of not getting underway at the start. But when the Freshman attack was well developed, they found it no easy task to score, and it was ten minutes before they were able...
...second scrimmage held against the M. I. T. sextet this week the Crimson team found little trouble in outplaying and outscoring their opponents yesterday afternoon at the Arena. In the first part of the practice game the Engineers were threatening, but as the scrimmage proceeded Coach Claflin's men were able to break up the M. I. T. attack in its initial stages in mid-ice. Not once were goal-tenders Higgins and Flint scored upon, although the former had one very narrow escape when an M. I. T. player got loose and had a clear shot for a goal...
...absence of Crosby and Baker Coach Claflin started on Team A Gratwick at left defense and Larocque at right wing. Gratwick was also tried at rigth wing for a time. The second-string forward line, alternating with the regulars was composed of Hill at left wing, Lamont at center, and Angier at right wing...
Secondly, the University men displayed yesterday very poor shooting ability. Besides delaying the shot too long in numerous cases, Coach Claflin's players made far too many inaccurate attempts at the M. I. T. goal. For instance, three times Crimson skaters were alone in front of the Engineers' net; and on each occasion no tally was made. This shows clearly that the University men do not always make the most of their opportunities to score...
