McLaughlin Powers No. 2 Eagles Past UNH with Shorthanded Overtime Winner
January 10, 2021 | Men's Hockey
Senior captain Marc McLaughlin scored shorthanded just 25 seconds into overtime to secure an extra point for Boston College
DURHAM, N.H. – Captain Marc McLaughlin snapped a shot high glove side on a partial breakaway to beat Mike Robinson for a shorthanded game-winning goal just 25 seconds into overtime on Sunday at the Whittemore Center.
Â
No. 2 Boston College pulled out a 3-2 road victory over New Hampshire to split a home-and-home series. The Eagles improved to 6-2-0 with two Hockey East points, while the Wildcats fell back below .500 at 3-4-1.
Â
McLaughlin finished the contest with a multi-point performance on a goal and an assist. The junior was plus-2 and won 15 of his 22 faceoffs on the night for BC, which never trailed.Â
Â
Classmate Casey Carreau netted his first goal of the season in the opening period, while sophomore Mike Hardman collected his fourth in the middle frame.
Â
Spencer Knight earned the win in net to extend his personal unbeaten streak to 14 games (13-0-1) dating back to last season. In his first action since returning from the World Junior Championship, Knight made 27 saves including a highlight reel stop with his left pad extended in the closing minutes of regulation. With his second stop of the night, the sophomore recorded his 1,000th career save.Â
Â
Both of New Hampshire's goals came on the power play as the Wildcats went 2-for-8 with the man advantage, while the Eagles finished 0-for-3.
Â
Matt Boldy extended his point streak to six games to start his sophomore season with an assist on Hardman's goal.
Â
SCORING SUMMARY
1st 12:47, BC (1-0) | McLaughlin and Trevor Kuntar sent Carreau into the UNH zone along the left wing and the junior's wrist shot trickled through the pads of Robinson over the goal line.
Â
2nd 4:21, UNH (1-1) | Angus Crookshank buried his own rebound under the pads of Knight on the doorstep to knot the score on the power play.
Â
2nd 14:06, BC (2-1) | Boldy dropped a pass to Colby Ambrosio and the rookie zipped the puck across the zone for Hardman, who beat Robinson high glove side from the left faceoff dot.

OT 0:25, BC (3-2) | McLaughlin broke up a drop pass in the defensive zone and skated up ice ahead of a UNH defenseman before snapping a shot glove side from between the circles.
