...most encouraging feature of the work was the ability of the University forwards to take the puck out of the corners. Failure to do this was one of the team's worst faults during the first half of the Princeton game, and improvement in it is more needed than in any other department of the game. In the work of carrying the puck down the ice, Willetts aided the forwards materially, and the whole defence played their usual strong game in breaking up the opposing attack...
...which made the second score possible. Gardner at goal proved himself the equal of Kalbfleisch, and the three shots he missed were practically impossible to stop. The outer defence, Blackall and Willetts, did excellent work in breaking up Princeton's attack and were of material aid in feeding the puck to the forwards. The same fault may be found with the offence that has been found with the offence that has been found wanting all season--it lacks that knack of snapping in rebounds that was so noticeable last year.

Having stopped a shot in the middle of the ring Huntington passed immediately to Pierce who returned the pass just. In time to escape Blair, and allow Huntington to drive the puck home. Within three minutes of this Princeton had caged its first two goals and completed the scoring for the half. The first was the result of a concerted dash down the ice in which the puck passed from Kuhn to McKinney to Baker who made the shot; the second...
After about six minutes of play in the second half McKinney passed out from the corner to Baker who made Princeton's third and last tally. The speed increased from this time on and after half the period had elapsed Duncan caged the puck on a pass from Blackall for the final score of the game. Then Harvard's desperate onslaught against the Princeton goal began, but was of no avail...
