UConn men’s hockey earned a thrilling 2-1 victory over No. 17 Providence on Friday night. Ryan Tverberg scored a breakaway goal with 4:27 left in the third period that eventually became the game-winner.
After a scoreless first period, Providence drew first blood 47 seconds into the second. During a short power play, the Friars caught the Huskies on a change and Max Crozier buried a one-timer to take a 1-0 lead.
UConn answered back just over a minute later. John Spetz picked up the puck along the boards, skated across the blue line, and floated a wrister on net.
