UConn men’s hockey head coach Mike Cavanaugh wanted more from his offense and he got it on Tuesday night as the Huskies defeated No. 20 Northeastern, 5-3.
After entering the game following a pair of losses at Ohio State in which the Huskies failed to score for the final 78:43, UConn scored five goals in the first two periods en route to the victory. Cavanaugh’s side improves to 3-3-0 on the season and 2-1-0 in Hockey East play.
Northeastern struck first less than five minutes in. Tyler Spott collected the puck from the top of the face-off circle and delivered it to Ty Jackson in front of net.
