Knights Suffer One-Goal Loss at Dartmouth

Despite a 26-10 advantage in shots over the final 40 minutes, the Clarkson University hockey team could not get past Dartmouth, falling to the Big Green 3-2 in Hanover, NH on Friday night.

With three games remaining in the regular season, Clarkson is in third place in the ECAC Hockey standings with an 11-4-4 league mark. Despite Friday's loss, the Knights have clinched a top-four spot in the conference and a first-round bye in the upcoming ECAC Hockey playoffs for the first time since 2008. Ranked seventh in the national polls, Clarkson, which is winless in its last six games (0-3-3), is 19-7-5 overall. The Knights play at Harvard on Saturday.

Clarkson controlled much of the last two periods at Dartmouth and outshot the Big Green 35-22 for the game. The Knights, however, fell behind early and never led in the contest.

Dartmouth (11-13-2, 9-9-1) opened the scoring at 9:27 with a breakaway goal by Shane Sellar.

Clarkson had a strong second-period effort against the Big Green, outshooting Dartmouth 13-3 in the stanza. The Knights finally capitalized on a scoring opportunity late in the period with a power-play tally by sophomore assistant captain Devin Brosseau (St. Lambert, QUE) at 17:55 for his seventh goal of the season.

A pair of goals by the Big Green early in the final frame gave the home team a 3-1 lead.

Charley Michalowski put Dartmouth ahead just 51 seconds into the period and then Cam Strong connected for a goal on a big bounce off the backboards that deflected in off Clarkson's sophomore goaltender Jake Kielly (Eden Prairie, MN) at 3:16. Kielly left the game after that goal, being replaced by freshman Nicholas Latinovich (Maple, ONT).

Senior Dylan Gareau (Richmond, ONT) pulled the Green and Gold to within one with his third goal of the year and his first since tally since December 9 at St. Lawrence. Senior defenseman Kelly Summers (Golden Lake, ONT) and sophomore Haralds Egle (Liepaia, Latvia) picked up their second assists of the night on the score.

The Knights continued to pressure Dartmouth, but could not come up with the equalizer.

Clarkson scored on its lone power play of the night and killed off the Big Green's lone man-advantage opportunity.

Kielly finished with 15 saves on 18 shots, while Latinovich turned aside all four shots he faced.
