...first period started as expected with the rivals exchanging aggressive checks and extra shoves after whistles. Despite five penalties in the period, neither team could capitalize on power play chances. Harvard’s sophomore goaltender Ryan Carroll faced traffic in the crease but stuffed all attempts on net. Cornell’s Ben Scrivens, one of the frontrunners for the Hobey Baker Award for the best college hockey player in the nation, looked comfortable between the pipes, positioning himself well to deflect Crimson attempts on goal...

Other than the climactic final minute, Harvard mustered up a sufficient post game throughout the second half following its virtual nonexistence in the first.

At the first meeting, the members (all 13 of them) walked under ladders to enter a room covered with spilled salt...
