The Eagles fought hard tonight, playing one of their better games of the season and doing everything they could to try and extend their season, but ultimately fell to Merrimack 1-0 in a double overtime game.
Both teams got some good chances in the first period, although Merrimack dominated in shots on goal 12-7. Neither team was able to get past the goalies, however, and the teams went into intermission tied at 0.
The 0-0 tie held through the second period, with both goalies making some huge saves during the period. The Eagles entered the third period with 49 seconds to go on a penalty kill, but they came out and killed it.
