Jones made up for a porous Eli defense by turning away 44 shots during the evening, including 21 in the second period, when the Crimson put together some of its finest hockey of the season.

A well only 1,000 ft. deep taps this reservoir. Some of the steam is "juvenile," coming from water that was trapped in the deep interior when the earth was young and rising upward through the deep faults.
