Dartmouth beats men's hockey 5-2 in first game since ECAC Semifinals

By The Crimson Staff

HANOVER, N.H.-The No. 12/11 Harvard men's hockey team fell 5-2 to Dartmouth in Friday night's season-opening contest between the longtime ECAC rivals.

Sophomore Jimmy Fraser put Harvard on the board 9:34 into the first period with a 4-on-4 tally, but Dartmouth evened the score less than two minutes later and never looked back, coasting to a comfortable 5-2 advantage by the end of the second period.

Crimson senior netminder Justin Tobe was peppered with close-range shots and ended the night with 24 saves for the loss. Despite outshooting Dartmouth 32-29 and winning 63 percent of the faceoffs, Harvard was 1-for-7 on the power play and never mounted any sustained offensive pressure.

The game was a rematch of last year's ECAC semifinal game, which the Crimson won 10-1 before storming to its second conference title in a row.
