...three more goals despite minimal shot opportunities. Cornell cracked open the third with a close-range goal only two minutes into the frame, but the Crimson responded three minutes later with a power-play goal by Vaillancourt, who swooped in front of the net and made an impressive back-handed flip shot. “Puck movement and puck possession allowed us to capitalize on power plays that we haven’t been taking advantage of,” Stone said. “It was really about keeping it simple.” Vaillancourt has taken part...
