The low-scoring game was not indicative of a lack of offense. Both teams recorded a high number of shots, but neither could penetrate the goal. The Crimson took a season-high 35 shots on Boucher, while senior netminder J.R. Prestifilippo stopped 24 shots.
The Crimson's inability to capitalize on its numerous opportunities is a problem that had plagued Harvard in the last five of its six games.
Macleod brought the Crimson closest to scoring, foreshadowing his game-winner the following night, when he gained possession of the puck on a turnover, and rang it off the post at 4:37 in the first.
Big Green winger Ryan Sinclair answer Macleod's attempt with a close shot of his own from the right post. Prestifilippo stoned Sinclair, and defenseman P.J. Martin tried for the rebound but hit Prestifilippo's pads.
Prior to yesterday's game, the Crimson had been denied most of its power-play opportunities, but not due to lack of effort. Dominic Moore crashed the net at 12:40 and backhanded the puck just shy of the net.
