It’s the first full weekend of conference play in ECAC Hockey. All games start at 7 p.m. unless otherwise noted.<\/p>\n

Overall: 12-9-4<\/p>\n

Clarkson at Brown <\/b><\/p>\n
The Golden Knights began league play with four points against Rensselaer and Union last weekend. Take away two empty-net goals against Yale in its season opener, and Brown has averaged less than two goals per game. Gavin Nieto has been solid in net for the Bears, but they’ll need to generate some offense if they want to beat Clarkson. Clarkson wins <\/b><\/p>\n
Harvard at Colgate <\/b><\/p>\n
This has become a more intriguing matchup over the past few weeks. Colgate is 1-0-1 in league play and unbeaten in five straight games overall, thanks to a strong defensive effort and Colton Point’s play in goal. However, the Raiders haven’t faced a team as balanced as the Crimson during that unbeaten streak. Harvard wins <\/b><\/p>\n
Quinnipiac at Rensselaer<\/b><\/p>\n
The Bobcats are 0-2 in conference play for the first time since joining ECAC Hockey in 2005. I don’t think that streak will extend to 0-3 against the Engineers, who have allowed nearly four-and-half goals per game in conference play. Quinnipiac wins <\/b><\/p>\n
Cornell at Dartmouth <\/b><\/p>\n
Dartmouth recorded its first wins of the year last weekend, but the Big Red have yet to lose so far this year, going 4-0 through its first two weekends of play. Senior Hayden Stewart was solid in relief of freshman goalie Matthew Galajda last Saturday at Princeton. Regardless of who starts in net for Cornell, I think the Big Red win. Cornell wins <\/b><\/p>\n
Princeton at Union<\/b><\/p>\n
The Dutchmen are 5-1 over their last six games and haven’t lost to Princeton in more than seven years. The Tigers should be a contender this season, but it’s early in the season for them and Union is playing at home. Union wins <\/b><\/p>\n
St. Lawrence at Yale <\/b><\/p>\n
