Erik Anderson scored a hat trick and added three assists and Mike Gellard had two goals and four assists as St. Lawrence snapped a three game losing skid with a 6-3 win over Harvard Friday night. <\/p>\n
The Saints improve to 3-5-2 overall and 2-1-1 in the ECAC while Harvard falls to 4-3-1 overall and 3-2-1 in the ECAC. <\/p>\n
While St. Lawrence dominated the first two periods, outshooting Harvard 32-12, the Crimson entered the third period tied 2-2 before the line of Gellard, Anderson and Alan Fyfe exploded for four goals in the final 20 minutes. <\/p>\n
“It was great to finally see us break out and score some goals,” said Saint coach Joe Marsh. “We’ve been playing well, but not finishing off\u2026tonight Anderson, Gellard and Fyfe had a great night. I thought we did a very good job all the way around. All four lines contributed, although
\nthe scoring all came basically from one line, and the guys did a very good job defensively.”<\/p>\n
St. Lawrence generated offensive pressure early, outshooting Harvard 8-1 in the first six minutes and finally cashed in with the game’s first goal at the 7:53 mark when Anderson snapped a wrist shot over the shoulder of Crimson goalie Oliver Jonas after taking a feed out of the corner from Gellard for his fifth goal of the year. <\/p>\n
Harvard came back to tie it at 15:15 when Peter Capouch was credited with his fourth goal of the season after a centering pass went into the net off the skate of a Saint defenseman.<\/p>\n
The Saints took a 2-1 lead just 51 seconds into the second period when Gellard scored his sixth goal of the season from the short slot on a SLU power play, but while the Saints totally dominated play, they couldn’t add to their lead. <\/p>\n
St. Lawrence outshot Harvard 14-1 in the first 10:30 of the period, but the Crimson retied the score on their third shot of the period at 17:19 when freshman Rob Fried tapped home a rebound of a shot by Steve Moore.<\/p>\n
Anderson scored his second of the night off Gellard’s centering pass just 47 seconds into the third period and netted the eventual game winner on a rebound put-back of a power play shot by Russ Bartlett at 7:52. <\/p>\n
Harvard’s Chris Bala cut it to 4-3 on a power play goal at 10:38, but the Saints put it away when Gellard scored his second of the night off a faceoff win by Anderson at 13:16 and Fyfe scored his fifth of the season from Gellard and Anderson just 22 seconds later.<\/p>\n
Saint goaltender Jeremy Symington made 13 of his 23 saves in the third period while Jonas finished the night with 44 saves, matching his career high.<\/p>\n
“Jeremy had some big saves with the game on the line in the third period,” said Marsh. “He made a huge stop on Fried in the opening seconds of the third period and had a couple of big ones on Steve Moore to protect the lead.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
