• Within the opening minutes of the middle frame, the Eagles were able to tie the game up, 1-1.
• Wasting no time in the third period, graduate student Jakov Novak, with poise, put Northeastern up 2-1. Junior Michael Outzen stole the puck at the blueline to find Novak, who won a two-on-one for the tally. Also adding a helper was senior Jeremie Bucheler, playing in his 100^th career game.
• Netminder Devon Levi finished the night with 28 saves for his 13th win of the season.
