Harvard Men's Hockey Begins ECAC Road Trip

Harvard Men's Hockey is set to face Princeton and No. 15 Quinnipiac this weekend after a tough 2-1 loss to Dartmouth in their season opener, where they outshot Dartmouth but were unable to capitalize on their chances. The Crimson has a mixed history against Princeton, holding a 1-1-1 record last season, while they trail Quinnipiac in their overall series. Meanwhile, across the NHL, goaltending dynamics are shifting as Anthony Stolarz has emerged as the new starting goalie for the Toronto Maple Leafs, receiving strong support from teammates after impressive performances, including a shutout against the Bruins. The league is experiencing an overall decline in save percentages, with several expected contenders struggling to maintain goaltending success. In college hockey, Providence is also utilizing a goalie tandem strategy, with Zachary Borgiel and Philip Svedeback sharing responsibilities effectively. As teams adapt to their goaltenders' strengths, the landscape of both college and professional hockey continues to evolve.
