Friday, Jan. 31<\/p>\n Yale at Clarkson<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: The Bulldogs have had their best offensive output of the season over the last four games, but Yale hasn\u2019t faced a defense as good as Clarkson\u2019s. Clarkson 4-2 <\/p>\n Mark: The Bulldogs don\u2019t have the bite to beat the Golden Knights. Clarkson 4-1<\/p>\n Cornell at Quinnipiac<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Losses have been tough to come by for Cornell this season and I think that trend will continue, even against a tough road opponent. Cornell 4-3\t<\/p>\n Mark: The Big Red have too much size and experience for the very young Bobcats. Cornell 3-1<\/p>\n Brown at St. Lawrence<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Brown won last weekend for the first time since November. The Saints will be looking to do the same this weekend. St. Lawrence 3-1<\/p>\n Mark: The Larries return to a renovated Appleton Arena and earn their first home win. St. Lawrence 3-2<\/p>\n Dartmouth at Rensselaer<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: RPI\u2019s three-headed goalie rotation has been great in conference play, but the Big Green should be able to generate enough offense for the win. Dartmouth 3-2<\/p>\n Mark: The Big Green haven\u2019t lost at Houston Fieldhouse since 2014. Dartmouth 3-1<\/p>\n Colgate at Princeton<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Neither team scores a ton, but the Raiders have been solid defensively, especially in conference play. Colgate 2-1<\/p>\n Mark: Princeton is scoring just under two goals per game. Colgate is scoring slightly over two goals a game. Colgate 2-1<\/p>\n Harvard at Union<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Harvard just has too deep a lineup for Union to match. Harvard 4-1<\/p>\n Mark: The Crimson won\u2019t get caught with their eyes on the Beanpot. Harvard 5-1<\/p>\n Saturday, Feb. 1<\/p>\n Dartmouth at Union<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: A night after facing Harvard, the Dutchmen host another talented offensive team. Dartmouth 4-3<\/p>\n Mark: The Big Green sweep the Capital District. Dartmouth 3-2<\/p>\n Cornell at Princeton<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Cornell has lost one league game, while the Tigers only have one league win. Cornell 5-1 Brown at Clarkson<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Bears haven\u2019t won a road game this season. Clarkson 4-2<\/p>\n Mark: The Bears haven\u2019t scored more than three goals in a game since Nov. 9. Clarkson 4-3<\/p>\n Yale at St. Lawrence<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Like I said above, St. Lawrence is struggling. Yale has been trending upward lately. Yale 4-2\t<\/p>\n Mark: Odds are very good that it will be a low-scoring game. Yale is 56th in goals; the Saints are 55th. Yale 1-0<\/p>\n Colgate at Quinnipiac<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: This should be a pretty good matchup between two teams fighting for a first-round bye in the league tournament. Home ice gives Quinnipiac the edge. Quinnipiac 3-2<\/p>\n Mark: The Bobcats will be looking for payback for a road loss against Raiders in November. Quinnipiac 3-1<\/p>\n Vermont at Rensselaer<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: The Catamounts enter the weekend winless over their last seven games. Rensselaer 3-1<\/p>\n Mark: The Engineers are 4-2-1 in the New Year heading into Friday\u2019s game. Catamounts are 0-5-2. RPI 5-2<\/p>\n Monday, Feb. 3<\/p>\n Northeastern vs. Harvard in the Beanpot, 5 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n Nate: Northeastern enters the weekend having lost two in a row, but the Huskies were on an impressive stretch before that. Northeastern 5-4<\/p>\n Mark: The Crimson were in a 3-6-4 slide heading in the weekend. The Huskies have won the last two Beanpots.
