Not a good start.

Clarkson lost to UNH, 4-2.
Yale lost to Minnesota, 7-1.
Brown lost to North Dakota, 5-2.

Total score: 16-5.

The only truly discouraging sign is the Yale - Minnesota score (if not the result).  Higgins is at the WJC, right?  Yale can't seem to score without him.

I expected the losses to UNH and NoDak.  Looks like Yann Denis is having a much tougher year.

Bizarre game.  Yale's starting goalie, Cohen, gave up six goals on twelve shots.  

It was 1-0 with two minutes left in the first when two quick goals sealed it.  On the first Cohen went down for no good reason and Hirsch put it over him.  On the second,  a PP goal, Vanek was allowed to stand alone in the slot, got a pass from behind the net, and easily found a corner from point-blank range.  The fourth Minny goal came when the puck was shot around the glass, hit a divider and deflected in as Cohen was heading behind the net to stop it.  The sixth came when Vanek had the puck behind Yale's net--again all alone--faked left and went right--as Cohen was heading left.

Yale's frosh goalie, Josh Gartner, played quite well after replacing Cohen in what was his first appearance.
