ASU Hockey: Devils fight until end, fall short in first ever NCAA Tournament

ASU never gave up.

Down two goals to none in the third period, captain defenseman Brinson Pasichnuk went top shelf, giving the Devils hope down the stretch.

That effort from the captain would not be enough as ASU fell to the Bobcats 2-1.

In the first period of action, Quinnipiac wasted no time on the attack getting shots off early and often against Hobey Baker Award nominee goalie Joey Daccord.

That would continue throughout the contest, with the Bobcats outshooting the Devils 38-21.

This came as no surprise for head coach Greg Powers, who mentioned his respect for Quinnipiac coach Rand Pecknold before tonight’s matchup.
