...same time, despite his much-mocked pledge to run a positive campaign, Huckabee has continued to play hardball with Romney. He tells reporters to ask the other candidates if they know how to clean a gun.

...second. Off a pass from junior Jimmy Fraser, sophomore Chad Morin smashed a slapshot through a line of Quinnipiac defensemen to even the game at three. “Sometimes the puck has eyes,” Morin said of his clean shot. “Sometimes you’re lucky and it doesn’t hit anybody going through.” Though the Crimson racked up six penalties overall, with four coming in the second period alone, its penalty kill managed to erase all of them down despite heavy pressure from the Bobcats...
