In its first game in 36 days, UConn men’s hockey dropped its second half opener to the No. 19 Harvard Crimson, 6-3.
The Huskies scored two unanswered goals at the end of the first and beginning of the second period to tie the game at 2-2 but were out-scored 4-1 (including an empty-netter) over the final 37 minutes.
UConn tied a season-high with seven penalties, two of which resulted in power play goals for Harvard. The Huskies also took two penalties in the final four minutes while trailing by just one, which undercut any hopes for a comeback.
