On each of those nights, Providence was the better third period team but the Minutemen found a way to win. On Saturday the tables turned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTonight, they were carrying things a little bit,\u201d admitted Providence coach Nate Leaman about UMass in the third. \u201cThen one of our pucks found a way in. It\u2019s funny how things evened out somehow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even the game winner, which was scored on a scrum in front where Conway was about to seemingly shoot a puck through UMass goaltender Matt Murray with 2:56 left, wasn\u2019t the best offense chance late in the game. Both of those came at the other end of the ice.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We are down to 1:25 left.

The rebound at the far post was blocked by Vincent Desharnais diving across the crease.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a lot of scoring chances [in the third],\u201d said UMass coach Greg Carvel. \u201cIn these types of games, every puck, every battle counts. Providence found a way to win the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">HOW DID THAT STAY OUT??? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6Kk1ct0nvD\">pic.twitter.com\/6Kk1ct0nvD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; PC Men&#39;s Hockey (@FriarsHockey) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FriarsHockey\/status\/1099465162858229760?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 24, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>A major part of the success for Providence on the evening was the ability to take away some of UMass\u2019 speed, particularly as the Minutemen crossed into the offensive zone. Though there were still plenty of transition offense, the ability to close some gaps and not allow the Minutemen to find the late man across the line helped significantly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought our D did a really good job of gaping tonight,\u201d said Leaman. \u201cIf you let them get over the line, they move laterally and they find drop guys and options. We did a better job of holding our gaps tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Carvel, whose team plays on an Olympic sheet at home at the Mullins Center, the smaller ice sheet posed a problem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s tough in [Schneider Arena]; there\u2019s no ice,\u201d said Carvel. \u201cIt\u2019s a different game than on our ice. We play with a lot of speed because there\u2019s a lot of ice to work with.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we play like this in neutral buildings the rest of the way, we\u2019ll be fine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>UMass jumped on top at 11:04 of the first during a four-on-four situation. Cale Makar read a Friars offensive zone play, picked off a pass and was off to the races, roofing a shot on the backhand after a nifty move to get Hawkey down.<\/p>\n<p>The Friars had a prime opportunity to even the score \u2013 or accomplish even more \u2013 when UMass defender Mario Ferraro was given a five-minute major and game misconduct for hitting from behind at 13:17. The Friars, though, had difficulty establishing control in the offensive zone and, despite being credited with five shots on the power play, never put forth a grade \u2018A\u2019 opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>That loss of Ferraro was a significant one, though, for the Minutemen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLosing a player like Mario Ferraro is like losing two defensemen,\u201d said Carvel about the penalty to his best defensive defenseman. He credited the play of Ty Farmer and Jake McLaughlin to take Ferraro\u2019s place in the final 40-plus minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Providence grabbed a lead with two quick goals in the second when Jason O\u2019Neill and Josh Wilkins scored just 2:21 apart.<\/p>\n<p>But the Minutemen had an answer at 16:07 when Niko Hildenbrand buried a rebound from the high slot through Hawkey\u2019s five hole.<\/p>\n<p>Both coaches said that Saturday\u2019s sellout and the related intensity of the game that went along with it was good preparation for the postseason. Though Providence has been to five straight NCAA tournaments, including winning in 2015, UMass will be very much a newcomer when it heads to the big dance next month for the first time since 2007.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re still a young team in that we have not played at the Boston Garden, we\u2019ve not played in an NCAA tournament,\u201d said Carvel. \u201cSo this was one of those games we could \u00a0come into it and know Providence was going to play a playoff style.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the Friars, Saturday\u2019s win has the team at the opposite end of the spectrum from two weekends ago when they lost at Maine and were 1-2-1 in their last four. Since then they\u2019ve swept UMass Lowell and knocked off the number two team in the nation.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a bit of a roller coaster, but don\u2019t tell that to Leaman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s the thing, it can\u2019t be a roller coaster. Not at this time of the year,\u201d said Leaman. \u201cOne of the things I said to the guys after the game was, \u2018We\u2019ll enjoy this tonight. Then it\u2019s UConn (Providence\u2019s next opponent). UConn\u2019s going to be a battle. It\u2019s going to be a war.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s just what it is this time of year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Around the Nation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>No. 13 Clarkson 5, No. 5 Quinnipiac 3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Clarkson, which had not taken more than two points from a league weekend since January 18-19, upset No. 5 Quinnipiac on the road on Saturday to earn a three-point weekend and pull into fourth place in the ECAC, two points behind first-place Cornell.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony Calling scored twice for the Golden Knights while Jake Kielly made 24 saves to earn the win.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Impressive win on the road keeps <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClarksonHockey1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ClarksonHockey1<\/a> in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ecachockey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ecachockey<\/a> title hunt!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LetsGoTech?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LetsGoTech<\/a>!<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fK0FhZgfRG\">https:\/\/t.co\/fK0FhZgfRG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; ClarksonAthletics (@ClarksonUSports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ClarksonUSports\/status\/1099517505427656704?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 24, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colorado College 8, No. 8 Western Michigan 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Colorado College scored the game&#8217;s final six goals, including five in the third period, to rout No. 8 Western Michigan, 8-2, and earn the weekend split.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Copeland broke the 2-2 tie but that was hardly his biggest accomplishment.
