Things weren’t looking great for Hockey East’s hottest team, Connecticut, as the game approached the waning second of regulation.<\/p>\n

Trailing, 2-1, after UMass’ John Leonard scored his second goal of the game and 26th of the season with 10:57 remaining, the Huskies provided late game fireworks as Marc Gatcomb tied the game with 1:31 left and Kale Howarth tallied again with 8.7 left, giving UConn its fourth straight win and eighth in their last nine Hockey East contests.<\/p>\n
