A pair of unanswered goals and a big penalty kill in the final minutes helped UConn men’s hockey secure its first road win, 2-1, over the UNH Wildcats. The Huskies improve to 3-4-1 on the season and in Hockey East play as well.
UNH went ahead in the first period off a power-play goal before UConn’s John Spetz responded in the second period and Roman Kinal found the game-winner in the third.
Huskies survive late penalty
UConn took a 2-1 lead less than 90 seconds into the third period. However, the goal seemed to wake UNH up as both teams battled back and forth down the ice trading chances.
