  • Dallaire put SNHU ahead for good at 9:02 of the third period, blasting a slap shot just inside the blue line for his first goal of the season. Senior Brendan Lynch (Nepean, Ontario) and Slingerland assisted on the play.
  • Devlin recorded his second multi-goal game of the season, while Slingerland finished with two assists.
  • Junior Collin Berke (Crofton, Md.) earned the win in goal, stopping 27 shots.
  • SNHU and Saint Anselm each finished with 29 shots on goal, while the Hawks went 1-for-5 on the power play and the Penmen were 0-for-1.
