To put Yale's scoring woes in perspective, the second worst offensive team in the conference, Boston College, has 18 goals this season. At the Bulldogs' current pace, they will be lucky to score 18 goals all season.
If the Yale offense has any hope of burying the puck in the Crimson net, the Bulldogs will need a big game from junior forward Lisa Meyers.
Without Shewchuk or Botterill in the lineup, there will be added pressure on junior forward Angie Francisco (7 goals, 13 assists) and sophomore defenseman Angela Ruggiero (5,8) to fill in for their missing teammates.
Without much of a scoring threat up front and the second most goals allowed in the conference, most of Saturday's game will likely be played in the Yale zone and the Crimson should have an opportunity to run up the score.
However, Princeton will need its young guns to have equally impressive performances if the Tiger's roar is going to have much of bite against the Crimson.
