The Beanpots Are Back for 2022!

[JMCx4]

Murphy with the hat trick! Early in the 3rd, on another 5-on-4 advantage, 3-0 Northeastern ...

 

[JMCx4]

It was The Maureen Murphy Show on her home ice of Matthews Arena. Final Score: Northeastern 3 - Boston U 0. SOGs were 37-14 in favor of the winners.

Shout-outs to the two backup goaltenders who played very confidently & skillfully in this Consolation Round game: BU senior Nicole McGuigan, who was appearing in her first career game; and NU junior Gwyneth Philips, who earns the W for the Huskies' victory in a full-game replacement of #1 NU goaltender Aerin Frankel.

ETA: Says it all ...

Underway in the women's Beanpot championship.

 

[JMCx4]

Harvard opens the scoring in the 3rd minute. Goal to junior forward Kristin Della Rovere., on shot from the point.

 

[JMCx4]

End of one period, Harvard 1 - BC 0. Eagles lead in SOGs 17-14, while the Crimson have the edge in Faceoff Wins (12-10) & Blocked Shots (7-2). Harvard will have 1:02 of a carryover penalty kill starting the 2nd.

 

[JMCx4]

The Eagles open the 2nd period scoring on their early PP. Goal for sophomore defender Maddie Crowley-Cahill. Score tied at 1's.

ETA ...




But Harvard regains the lead in the 4th minute of the middle frame, on a goal by first-year forward Taze Thompson. Now 2-1 Crimson.

 

[JMCx4]

And BC's Crowley-Cahill answers again 7 minutes in. 2-2. Harvard going on their first PP.

ETA ...

 

[JMCx4]

End of 2 periods @ Matthews, Harvard 2 - BC 2. The Eagles began to play better offensively after Maddie's second goal, but Harvard had their chances as well. Both goaltenders (senior Becky Dutton for Harvard, senior & team co-captain Abigail Levy for BC) have played strong with good positioning & reactions. Oughta be a fun finish.

 

[JMCx4]

Harvard retakes the lead three minutes into the 3rd period, courtesy of a first career goal by first-year defender Mia Biotti. 3-2 lead for the Crimson.

 

[JMCx4]

And BC ties it again seven minutes into the 3rd period, with Dutton getting beaten on a weak shot by sophomore forward Caroline Goffredo. Make it 3-3.

 

[JMCx4]

Della Rovere strips the puck from a BC player in the Eagles' end & scores her second goal to give Harvard a 4-3 lead. About 9 minutes now left in regulation.

 

[JMCx4]

And with 7 minutes to go in the third, Abby Newhook ties the game on a deflection. 4-4.

 

[JMCx4]

Harvard's senior forward Becca Gillmore puts her team up 5-4 in a late 4-on-4 situation.

ETA: The game winner ...

 

[JMCx4]

With 1:06 left, Della Rovere hit a post behind Levy while Abigail had lost her stick.

 

[JMCx4]

Harvard takes a D-zone penalty with just over 10 seconds left in regulation. Abigail Levy is pulled for an extra attacker, so the Eagles will skate 6-on-4 in the closing seconds.

 

[JMCx4]

Huge scrum in the corner of the Harvard end, and time expires. Final Score = Harvard 5- Boston College 4. The 2022 Women's Beanpot Champions are the Harvard Crimson. And I am plum worn out.

ETA: Harvard outshot BC 55-30, and yet the Eagles kept coming back. An amazing game played by both sides.
