Game 2 Recap: UVM 1, UNH 0

|

DURHAM – After the sophomore let six pucks past him on Friday night, University of Vermont Coach Kevin Sneddon pulled no punches in assessing the performance of goaltender Rob Madore, never quite pinning total blame on his netminder – but coming awful close.

“I don’t have much to say about our goaltending tonight,” Sneddon said after Friday's loss. “I feel bad for our team; I thought we put an effort forth that certainly deserved more than seven goals against. That’s going to be the key to tomorrow night. We need to get better goaltending.”

DURHAM – When he caught his own slip-up, a smile burst on Bobby Butler’s face. “It was a big win,” he said before a quick correction. “A big tie, I mean.”

He was right the second time, his University of New Hampshire hockey team having just fought Boston College to a 3-3 draw. But, given what that meant, it was easy for the captain to be momentarily mistaken.
