2011-12 Crimson Men’s Ice Hockey Game Notes

Game OnNo. 19 Harvard heads to Atlantic City, N.J., seeking its ninth ECAC Hockey Championship title. The third‑seeded Crimson takes on 13th‑ranked, second‑seeded Cornell in Friday’s second semifinal.

• The Crimson came back from a game down and came from behind in each game to defeat sixth-seeded Yale in a three-game series last weekend at Bright Hockey Center. The first two games of the series went to overtime, and Game 2 lasted nearly 90 minutes before Dan Ford (Skaneateles, N.Y.) netted the game-winner. Harvard exploded for six straight goals to take the deciding game, 8-2.

• Harvard has a 90-49-4 all-time record in the ECAC playoffs and has won eight tournament titles to trail only Cornell in wins (97) and championships (12). Harvard is playing in its first semifinal since 2008 but its eighth in the last 12 years. In those 12 tournaments, including this year, the Crimson is 35-15 with three league titles (2002, ’04 and ’06), three runner-up showings and eight total semifinal appearances. This is the 51st ECAC tournament and Harvard’s 29th semifinal appearance. Harvard is 17-11 in semifinals, including wins in each of its last six appearances.

• The Crimson has won four of its last five games and lost just three times in the last 16 games (8-3-5).

Recapping the Quarterfinals• Game 1: Kenny Agostino scored at 3:49 of overtime to overcome a then-career-high 42 saves from Raphael Girard (Saint-Hyacinthe, Que.) and lift Yale to a 2-1 win. Luke Greiner (Faribault, Minn.) scored Harvard’s goal in the final minute of the second period. Neither team scored in the end-to-end third period. The Crimson had three of the first four shots of overtime before Agostino sent Harvard to the brink of elimination.

• Game 2: Dan Ford scored at 9:20 of the second overtime to give the Crimson a 4-3 win in the fourth-longest playoff game in program history Saturday. Harvard came back from two goals down, scored three power-play goals and killed all 11 of Yale’s power plays, including two in overtime. Danny Biega (Montreal, Que.) scored twice, Patrick McNally (Glen Head, N.Y.) logged three assists and Raphael Girard made 48 saves for Harvard. Biega’s second goal, a rocket one-timer from his point spot on the power play, gave the Crimson a third-period lead, but Antoine Laganiere scored with just 27 seconds remaining to send the game to overtime. Marshall Everson (Edina, Minn.) also scored, and linemate Alex Killorn (Montreal, Que.) set up both Biega goals while firing nine shots on net.

• Game 3: The Crimson scored four times in the second period and rolled to an 8-2 win Sunday. David Valek (Zagreb, Croatia) registered his first career hat trick, while Alex Killorn (2-2-4) and Marshall Everson (1-3-4) notched four points each and Raphael Girard logged 39 saves. Alex Fallstrom (Stockholm, Sweden) and Daniel Moriarty (Bienfait, Sask.), two of 11 Crimson skaters to earn a point, added a goal and an assist each. Tommy O’Regan (Needham, Mass.) had two helpers. After each team scored in the first period, Harvard took control as soon as the puck dropped to start the second. Killorn won the opening faceoff, and 35 seconds later, the Crimson had a 2-1 lead on Fallstrom’s wraparound. Harvard began to pull away with Valek’s first goal midway through the frame. The eight goals marked Harvard’s greatest output since defeating Quinnipiac, 11-0, to open the ECAC quarterfinals March 14, 2008.

Quarterfinal Notables• Harvard killed 17 of Yale’s 18 power plays (94.4 percent) during the series. The only man-advantage goal for the Bulldogs, who had the league’s No. 2 power play in the ECAC regular season, came four minutes, 26 seconds into a five-minute power play in the third period of Game 3. The Crimson was 5 for 16 on its own power plays (31.3 percent).

• Fourteen of the 19 Harvard skaters who played against Yale registered a point. Alex Killorn led the way with six points on two goals and four assists. Marshall Everson had five points (2-3-5) while Danny Biega (2-2-4) and Patrick McNally (0-4-4) each chipped in four points from the blue line.

• Harvard’s top line of Alex Killorn, Marshall Everson and Alex Fallstrom totaled 10 points on four goals and six assists in Game 3. Each member of the trio was +4 in the game, and they combined for 16 shots. For the series, they totaled five goals, nine assists and 40 shots on goal.

• Raphael Girard totaled 129 saves on 136 shots, missing his third consecutive 40-save game by one stop Sunday. He posted a .949 save percentage and 1.97 goals-against average during the weekend.

• Patrick McNally was named ECAC Hockey Rookie of the Week following his four-assist weekend. It was his second such selection this season and the fourth of the year for Harvard.

• Defensive partners Dan Ford and Danny Biega combined for three goals and 10 shots Saturday. They also blocked four shots each. Ford, David Valek and Ryan Grimshaw (Rochester, N.Y.) led Harvard with seven blocks each in the series.

• Yale scored first in each game of the series and outscored Harvard by a 4-1 margin in first periods. The Crimson erased all three leads, thanks in part to a 7-0 edge in second-period goals and a 4-2 advantage in third-period play.

ElsewhereNo. 4 seed Colgate reached Atlantic City by handling Quinnipiac, 4-0, in Game 3. Cornell played a double-overtime game of its own, downing Dartmouth, 4-3, in the first game of its sweep. Top-seeded Union took two close games from local rival Rensselaer.

Comeback CrimsonHarvard has trailed during play in 27 games, but has rallied to win or tie 19 of those contests (9-8-10), including the last two games of the quarterfinals and victories against St. Lawrence and Clarkson to cap the regular season. Harvard has entered the final period trailing in 17 games but has rallied to win or tie in 10 of those (3-7-7). Harvard has trailed 37 times during play this season and has come back to tie 30 times. The Crimson trailed twice each in its win against No. 18 Colgate (Nov. 12) and its ties against No. 19 Quinnipiac (Nov. 5), Dartmouth (Nov. 25), No. 18 North Dakota (Dec. 30), No. 14 Union (Jan. 6) and No. 9 Cornell (Jan. 21). Harvard scored seven goals over the final two periods to rally from a four-goal deficit and defeat New Hampshire, 7-6 (Nov. 22), and erased four separate one-goal deficits in a 4-4 tie at Massachusetts (Dec. 2).

Magic NumbersHarvard is unbeaten when scoring four goals or more (8-0-2) and has lost just three times in 23 games when allowing three or fewer (11-3-9).

The Drawing BoardThe Feb. 17 tie at Brown was Harvard’s 11th of the season, setting a new NCAA record. Before the Crimson this season, three teams recorded 10 ties in a season: Minnesota State in 2002-03, Colorado College in 2008-09 and Western Michigan last season. Those MSU and WMU teams both made the NCAA tournament. The Feb. 10 tie against Rensselaer was Harvard’s eighth in ECAC play, eclipsing the league record held by the 1991-92 Yale, 2003-04 Dartmouth and 2010-11 Quinnipiac squads.

Time and a Half?Fourteen of Harvard’s 32 games have reached overtime, including 13 of the last 25. The Crimson has played 90 minutes, 17 seconds of overtime. Saturday’s double-overtime thriller was the Crimson’s first extra-session win since Nov. 20, 2007 at Boston University. Harvard’s last playoff win in overtime had been March 18, 2005, when Kevin Du ’07 scored to give the Crimson a double-overtime win against Colgate in the semifinals.

Crimson CalendarHarvard is 24-3-2 in February home games under Ted Donato. The Crimson is 24-10-6 in post-Beanpot ECAC games and 48-24-16 in all post-exam league games in Donato’s seven-plus seasons. (Harvard’s first-semester exams took place in January until being moved to December in 2009.)

Back in the SemifinalsHarvard is playing an ECAC semifinal for the first time since 2008, when the Crimson defeated Cornell, 3-1, and fell to Princeton, 4-1, in the league title game. Harvard reached the semifinals in six straight years from 2001-06, advancing to the final in the last five of those tournaments.

Playoffs Under Ted DonatoHarvard is 19-13-0 in playoff games in Ted Donato’s eight years as head coach. His Crimson previously reached the semifinals in 2005, ’06 and ’08 and won the 2006 league championship.

Flashback to 2006The Crimson’s last ECAC title run, in 2006, started in similar fashion to this year’s playoffs. Harvard earned a first-round bye but lost its quarterfinal opener at home to St. Lawrence. The Crimson rallied to win a close game the following night and erupted for eight goals to take Game 3, 8-4.

As the No. 3 SeedIn six previous tournaments as the ECAC’s No. 3 seed, Harvard has reached five semifinals and three finals, winning the 1963 and 2002 titles.

Pairing UpHarvard is tied for 22nd in the PairWise Ranking. The Crimson is 4-5-5 against its fellow teams under consideration for the NCAA tournament (Ratings Percentage Index of .500 or better).

All-Ivy HonoreesAlex Killorn and Danny Biega were unanimously to the All-Ivy League first team, while goaltender Steve Michalek (Glastonbury, Conn.) was named to the second team. Biega earned his second straight first-team selection by ranking second in the Ancient Eight with 14 points and 11 assists in Ivy games. Killorn, a second-team pick last season, led all players with eight goals against Ivy competition in 2011-12.

The Century MarkWith his first assist Saturday, Alex Killorn became the first Crimson player to register 100 career points since Tom Cavanagh ’05 totaled 117 (48-69-117) from 2001-05. His second goal Sunday was the 50th of his career, making him Harvard’s first 50-goal scorer since Tim Pettit ’04, who scored 57 from 2000-04. Killorn has 55 assists. The last 50-assist Harvard men before him were his former teammates, Alex Biega ’10 and Doug Rogers ’10, who also had 55 each.

MilestonesAlex Killorn is Harvard’s first 20-goal scorer since current San Jose Shark Dominic Moore ’03 scored 24 in 2002-03. He is the first to hit the 40-point mark since Moore (24-27-51), Tim Pettit (17-30-47) and Brett Nowak ’03 (12-29-41) all did so in 2002-03.

Turning 30Danny Biega is the first Harvard defenseman to log 30 points in consecutive seasons since Mark Benning ’87 registered 38 points in 1985-86 and 32 in 1986-87. Biega’s 34 points are the most by a Crimson defenseman since Sean McCann ’94 in 1993-94 (22-17-39). Biega’s 10 goals match his total from last year, the greatest from the Harvard blue line since Jeremiah McCarthy ’98 in 1997-98 (11).

ECAC Hockey Championship Weekend • March 16-17, 2012

30/30 VisionAlex Killorn, Danny Biega and Marshall Everson (11-19-30) are the first Crimson trio to notch 30 points each since Tom Cavanagh (16-20-36), Tim Pettit (10-24-34), Tyler Kolarik ’04 (12-18-30) and Brendan Bernakevitch ’05 (11-19-30) all put up 30 points in 2003-04.

Climbing the ChartsAlex Killorn is tied for 17th all-time at Harvard with 128 career games played and is set to become the 13th Crimson player to skate in 130 games.

Hobey HopefulsAlex Killorn and Danny Biega were among the nominees in fan balloting for the 2012 Hobey Baker Memorial Award, which went from Jan. 9 through March 4 at hobeybakeraward.com. The fans’ vote accounts for one percent of the total ballot in each phase. Three Harvard players have won the Hobey Baker Memorial Award: Mark Fusco ’83 in 1982-83, Scott Fusco ’85-86 in 1985-86 and Lane MacDonald ’88-89 in 1988-89. Only Minnesota and Minnesota Duluth have captured more Hobey trophies, with four each.

Walter Brown Award SemifinalistsMarshall Everson and Colin Blackwell (North Andover, Mass.) have been named semifinalists for the 60th Walter Brown Award, presented annually to the best United States-born college hockey player in New England, Gridiron Club of Greater Boston president Paul Stewart announced last month. Everson and Blackwell are among 21 semifinalists from 14 schools and three conferences, including six candidates from ECAC Hockey. Harvard is one of five schools with multiple nominees. Nine Crimson players have combined to win the award 10 times, most recently Dov Grumet-Morris ’05 in 2004-05. Everson ranks third on the Crimson with 30 points and 11 goals in 27 games and ranks fourth on the Crimson with 19 assists. Blackwell has registered 15 points, including five goals.

Goaltender of the MonthRaphael Girard was named ECAC Hockey/Fischer Hockey Goaltender of the Month for February. He was unbeaten at 3-0-2 in seven February appearances, posting a 1.75 goals-against average and .944 save percentage.

Award-Winning WeekendFor its strong finish to the season Feb. 24-25, Harvard was recognized by College Hockey News as its national Team of the Week. Along with the first two multiple-goal games of his career, David Valek played his usual strong defensive game against St. Lawrence and Clarkson and was subsequently named ECAC Hockey Player of the Week and Inside College Hockey National Player of the Week. Raphael Girard was named ECAC Hockey Goaltender of the Week. He stopped 58 of the 61 shots he faced, with two of the three goals he allowed coming on power plays.

Nov. 11 at Bright Hockey CenterA bad start and a host of penalties left the Crimson with a three-goal deficit midway through the first period. Harvard battled back to within one on power-play goals by Alex Fallstrom and Marshall Everson, but Cornell sealed a 4-2 win with a goal in the final minutes. Danny Biega and Luke Greiner assisted on both Harvard goals. Nick D’Agostino scored twice for the Big Red.

Jan. 21 at Lynah RinkAlex Killorn scored the tying goal with less than eight minutes remaining as Harvard rallied to tie No. 9 Cornell in front of a fish-throwing, sellout crowd. Marshall Everson scored a tying, power-play goal late in the first period and assisted on Killorn’s tally. Steve Michalek made 17 saves, and Cornell’s Andy Iles logged 31 stops to combat Harvard’s 33-19 shots advantage.

Championship QualityThe Crimson and Big Red have combined for three NCAA titles, with Cornell capturing two and Harvard one. They rank first and third in ECAC regular-season championships (Harvard 13, Cornell 9) and first and second in league tournament crowns (Cornell 12, Harvard 8). The rivals have accounted for nine of the 20 ECAC regular-season and tournament titles awarded over the last 10 seasons. For six of those nine championships, the other rival was the runner-up. Including the Big Red’s title this season, either Harvard or Cornell has won or shared the Ivy League crown in 38 of the league’s 55 seasons, with Harvard totaling 21 titles and Cornell 19. The teams shared the honor in 1983-84 and 1984-85.

Series HistoryCornell holds a 71-59-8 all-time lead in a series noted for the quality of the teams, intensity of the games and passion of the fans. The teams first met Jan. 8, 1910, a 5-0 Harvard win in New York City. The games have been closer in recent years, with 19 of the last 24 being decided by two goals or fewer.

Playoff Series HistoryThe Crimson and Big Red have faced off in eight of the last 12 ECAC tournaments. In each of Harvard’s three championship-weekend appearances under Ted Donato, the Crimson has met Cornell, winning in the 2006 final and ’08 semifinals after losing in the 2005 final. The Big Red has won four of the six title-game meetings and leads the all-time playoff series, 14-7-1. The teams have split their four semifinal meetings:1970: Cornell 6, Harvard 51975: Harvard 6, Cornell 42001: Cornell 5, Harvard 22008: Harvard 3, Cornell 1

Current Crimson vs. CornellDanny Biega has seven points on a goal and six assists in eight career games against the Big Red, while Alex Killorn has four goals and five points in 10 games.

2011-12 Harvard Men’s Ice Hockey

Scouting the Big RedCornell has lost just once (6-1-3) since the start of February. That defeat, 2-1 in overtime at Rensselaer, came in the regular-season finale and cost the Big Red a share of the ECAC regular-season title. Cornell bounced back with a sweep of Dartmouth in the league quarterfinals. Sean Whitney’s first goal of the season lifted the Big Red to a double-overtime win in Game 1, and three first-period goals were enough for a 3-1 victory in Game 2. Greg Miller, one of Cornell’s six 20-point scorers, paces the squad with 14 goals, 15 assists and 29 points. Brian Ferlin (8-13-21) was this season’s Ivy League Rookie of the Year, and Nick D’Agostino (8-12-20) is a standout defenseman. Andy Iles is the backbone of a strong defense with his 2.08 goals-against average and .920 save percentage.

Harvard vs. Union in 2011-12The Crimson and Dutchmen played two closely contested games on consecutive Fridays in January. Union held a 3-1 edge on Harvard heading into the final frame in Schenectady, N.Y., Jan. 6, but Alex Killorn and Danny Biega scored to draw the Crimson even, 3-3. Each player added an assist, Alex Fallstrom also scored and Steve Michalek made 33 saves. In an outdoor game at Fenway Park as part of the Sun Life Frozen Fenway 2012 event, an ECAC Hockey conference-game-record crowd of 8,981 saw No. 14 Union shut out Harvard, 2-0, Jan. 13. The Crimson had a would-be go-ahead goal by Peter Starrett (Bellingham, Mass.) disallowed early in the second period and fell victim to a riccocheting point-shot goal with 3.6 seconds left in the frame. Union’s Troy Grosenick made 18 saves, and Michalek logged 30.

Harvard vs. Colgate in 2011-12Harvard’s season-series win against the Raiders proved to be the difference between the teams in the regular-season standings. In the Nov. 12 game at Bright, Patrick McNally and Alex Killorn scored goals 79 seconds apart late in the second period to bring Harvard back from a goal down. Colin Blackwell and Rence Coassin (Hamden, Conn.) also scored, while Killorn and McNally added assists. Steve Michalek made 30 saves for his first collegiate win. Michalek made 34 saves, including 15 in the third period, as the teams tied, 2-2, Jan. 20 in Hamilton, N.Y. Marshall Everson tied the score at 1-1 in the final minute of the first period and set up Peter Starrett to give the Crimson the lead in the second, before Austin Smith rallied the Raiders in the third. Alex Killorn assisted on both Crimson goals.

Career Playoff LeadersDanny Biega has piled up 13 points (5-8-13) in 12 career postseason games, while Alex Killorn has notched 11 points (4-7-11) in 13 games. Biega, Alex Fallstrom and Daniel Moriarty share the team lead with five playoff goals. Fallstrom is a team-high +7 in 11 games.

Last Season’s PlayoffsTenth-seeded Harvard came within one goal of reaching the 2011 ECAC semifinals. The Crimson swept a first-round series at No. 7 seed Clarkson, 2-1 and 6-4, as Michael Biega ’11 netted the game-winning goals each night. Daniel Moriarty scored the tying and go-ahead goals 44 seconds apart, during a five-minute power play, in the third period of Game 2. The Crimson held off No. 3 seed Dartmouth, 3-2, in the opener of its quarterfinal series and reached overtime in Game 2 before the Big Green stayed alive with a shot off a skate. Alex Fallstrom scored twice in the deciding game, but Dartmouth hung on to win the game, 4-3, and the series, 2-1.

2011 Playoff LeadersAlex Fallstrom tied for second in ECAC Hockey with four playoff goals last season, while Michael Biega tied for fifth with six points (3-3-6).

League LeadersIn ECAC Hockey play this season, Danny Biega led league defensemen in points (8-15-23). Patrick McNally (4-11-15) tied for sixth among freshmen, first among rookie defensemen, in scoring. Harvard’s power play operated at a league-high 27 percent (24 for 89) in ECAC play.

Close CallsOnly five of Harvard’s 32 games have been decided by more than two goals. Twenty-three have been tied in the third period. At a point in every third period but five, the score has been tied or the teams have been separated by one goal.

Crimson CaptainsRyan Grimshaw is Harvard’s 119th captain and is assisted by Alex Killorn and Daniel Moriarty.

Balancing ActHarvard has 11 players with double-digit point totals, more than it has had in any season since 2007-08. The Crimson had seven such players all of last season.

Roaring TwentiesFive Harvard players have reached the 20-point plateau this season, the first time a Crimson team has achieved that since boasting six 20-point skaters in 2005-06, its last ECAC title season.

Magic Eight BallSeven Harvard players, compared to three last season, have scored eight goals or more. The last Crimson team with as many eight-goal scorers was the 2005-06 squad with nine.

The Bright StuffHarvard is 67-38-7 (.629) at Bright Hockey Center under Ted Donato and 289-131-32 (.675) all-time at Bright, which opened in 1979-80.

Helping HandTommy O’Regan has eight assists in the last eight games. Six of those helpers have come on goals by David Valek.

Marshall PlanMarshall Everson registered two points each in four straight games in January and has six goals and 14 assists in his last 14 games. He had scored or assisted on 15 of Harvard’s previous 25 goals before missing the Feb. 17-18 games at Brown and Yale with an injury.

The RegularsDaniel Moriarty played his 100th game for Harvard Feb. 10 against Rensselaer. Colin Moore (Medfield, Mass.) reached that milestone Feb. 3 at Quinnipiac, while Alex Killorn and Ryan Grimshaw did so earlier this season. With 98 games played so far in his career, Danny Biega is set to become the first Harvard player since Jon Pelle ’08 to skate in his 100th game by the end of his junior season.

Combined Shutout?Raphael Girard came off the bench and stopped every shot he faced in two straight games before starting Feb. 10. He made 26 saves in two periods at Quinnipiac and eight stops after entering the Beanpot semifinal in the second stanza. He played 80 minutes, 26 seconds consecutively without allowing goal before Rensselaer’s first goal.

Power PlayersDanny Biega recorded a league-high 14 ECAC power-play points (2-12-14). Alex Killorn is tied for seventh nationally with nine power-play goals, two fewer than the NCAA leaders.

Clutch KillornAlex Killorn scored the game-winning goal in the third period of each game of Harvard’s Jan. 27-28 sweep of Yale and Brown for his second and third game-winners of the season. He also netted the game-tying goal in the Crimson’s 2-2 draw at No. 9 Cornell Jan. 21. Killorn has totaled six game-winning goals in his career. Three have come in the third period, including the lone goal with 8.2 seconds left last season against Rensselaer.

Ask Questions LaterAlex Killorn ranked second in ECAC Hockey with 95 shots on goal in league play and paces Harvard with 156 overall shots, 4.88 per game. He is averaging 5.67 shots per playoff game.

Weekly WinnerAlex Killorn has twice been named ECAC Hockey Player of the Week this season. Killorn was honored Nov. 29, after totaling two goals and two assists in a win and tie against New Hampshire and Dartmouth, respectively. He earned the distinction again Jan. 31, after scoring three goals, including the tie-breaking tally in the third period of each game, in a weekend sweep of Yale and Brown. Killorn has totaled three selections as Player of the Week during his career.

Reunited, and It Feels So GoodDating back to Feb. 11, 2011, Harvard is 15-8-8 when Marshall Everson, Alex Killorn and Alex Fallstrom have skated together on a line. They accounted for all three goals and three assists Jan. 14 against Boston University. Fallstrom was injured Jan. 20 at Colgate, but he returned against Quinnipiac and the trio totaled two goals and six assists in that game. Everson set up Killorn on Harvard’s goal in the Beanpot opener and Fallstrom Feb. 10 against RPI. Everson, Killorn and Fallstrom led Harvard’s late charge once they were put together last season and were back together for 11 games before Jan. 21, helping Harvard win or tie eight of those contests by combining for 18 goals and 19 assists. This season, the trio has totaled 96 points on 44 goals and 52 assists in 87 individual games played.

Breaking OutMarshall Everson’s 11 goals, 19 assists and 30 points all at least double his career totals entering the season (4-7-11). Eric Kroshus has 18 points (8-10-18) to exceed the total from his first three seasons (5-12-17). With a line of 9-5-14, Luke Greiner has surpassed his career goals and points totals entering this season (4-6-10).

On the DotAlex Killorn has won a team-high 273 faceoffs and owns a .545 winning percentage at the dot (273-228), highlighted by a 29-10 performance in Harvard’s two-game New Year’s-weekend set at North Dakota. Alex Fallstrom owns a 128-100 record for a team-high .561 percentage.

Double TakeDanny Biega has registered 12, two-point games, including a stretch of five straight games with two points each Nov. 19-Dec. 10. Alex Killorn has also registered multiple points in 12 games, and Marshall Everson has eight multi-point outings. Biega has notched two assists in seven games, and Killorn has scored twice in five games. Patrick McNally has a pair of three-assist outings.

Youth MovementHarvard has two 18-year-olds on its roster. The Crimson had four 18-year-olds, the most of any of the 51 schools making their players’ ages available, until Max Everson (Edina, Minn.) and the injured Mark Luzar (Oakville, Ont.) recently turned 19. The Crimson youngsters are Steve Michalek, who has started 22 games in goal; Colin Blackwell and Everson, who have played in every game, and Luzar.

Teen SpiritSteve Michalek, 18, is the youngest goaltender in the nation. He is one of five freshmen to lead his squad in starts.

Veteran WorkloadSteve Michalek’s 22 starts are the third-greatest total by a Harvard freshman. J.R. Prestifilippo ’00 notched 31 starts in 1996-97. Grant Blair ’86 started 26 games in 1982-83.

ThirtysomethingSteve Michalek has recorded 30 or more saves in 11 of his 22 starts.

On-the-Job TrainingRaphael Girard and Steve Michalek have provided the Crimson with strong goaltending despite entering the season with one collegiate start between them, by Girard last year at Northeastern.

Block PartyMax Everson has recorded a team-high 49 blocked shots on the season. David Valek ranks second on the squad, first among forwards, with 43 blocks. Dan Ford has blocked 42 shots, and Ryan Grimshaw has blocked 41. Blocked‑shots totals do not include all games because some home teams do not track individual blocks.

Colin Comes ThroughEach of Colin Blackwell’s five goals have been third-period tallies, including the tying and go-ahead goals in the Crimson’s comeback from a 4-0 deficit to defeat UNH, 7-6, Nov. 22 and the tying goals at Rensselaer Jan. 7 and at home against Dartmouth Jan. 31. Blackwell posted the lone assist on Luke Greiner’s game-winning goal in the third period of the comeback win at Quinnipiac. He notched the primary assist on each of Harvard’s two third-period goals Jan. 27 against Yale and on the tying goal Jan. 21 at Cornell.

Triple ThreatTommy O’Regan was named ECAC Hockey Rookie of the Week Feb. 21, following a three-assist, +3 week. His selection made Harvard the only team this season to have three different players selected as ECAC Rookie of the Week. Colin Blackwell (Nov. 29) and Patrick McNally (Dec. 13, March 14) have also been chosen. McNally was also the ECAC Hockey/Fischer Rookie of the Month for December.

Rated RookiesHarvard’s nine-player freshman class has been ranked among the nation’s best and is arguably its deepest. Red Line Report ranked the class as NCAA Division I’s fourth-best, while Inside College Hockey ranked the class 12th nationally. INCH named four incoming players among the best at their positions: Steve Michalek, second among goaltenders; Patrick McNally and Max Everson, 14th and 17th, respectively, among defensemen, and Petr Placek (Rakovnik, Czech Republic), 20th among forwards.

Next Stop ... the Next LevelThe five NHL draftees in Harvard’s freshman class match Minnesota and North Dakota for the nation’s most. Patrick McNally was a fourth-round pick of the Vancouver Canucks in 2010. Four other Crimson rookies were chosen in 2011: Steve Michalek (Minnesota Wild, sixth round), Petr Placek (Philadelphia Flyers, sixth), Colin Blackwell (San Jose Sharks, seventh) and Max Everson (Toronto Maple Leafs, seventh).

Delayed DebutRyan McGregor (Ebmatingen, Switzerland) made his Harvard debut Jan. 27 against Yale after missing 18 games with an injury.

They Were Rookies OnceThe last time Harvard welcomed a freshman class as heralded as this year’s group was in 2009. Those players are now juniors. Three rank fifth or better on the Crimson scoring chart, and five rank among the top 10. A junior has scored or assisted on 41 of Harvard’s last 43 goals. A former member of the current junior class, first-round pick Louis Leblanc, plays for the Montreal Canadiens.

Big StagesThe attendance of 17,565 at the Feb. 13 Beanpot games was a season-high for Harvard. The Crimson skated before five-digit crowds in the opening round of the Beanpot (16,005) and both of its games at North Dakota (11,500 Dec. 30 and 10,980 Dec. 31). An ECAC regular-season-record 8,891 fans attended the Frozen Fenway game against Union (Jan. 13). Three Harvard home games and three road games have been sold out.

Frozen FenwayHarvard fell to No. 14 Union, 2-0, at Fenway Park Jan. 13. The game was part of Sun Life Frozen Fenway 2012, a 16-day ice event featuring two free community skate days, eight high school hockey games and six college hockey games. It marked the start of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Major League Baseball’s oldest ballpark. The first baseball game played at Fenway was an exhibition between the Boston Red Sox and Harvard April 9, 1912.

Back to the BeginningHockey at Harvard began outdoors. The school played its first game, against Brown, at Franklin Park Jan. 19, 1898 and continued to play home games outdoors until the opening of the Boston Arena in 1910. The team played at Harvard Stadium from 1905 until 1910.

ECAC Hockey Championship Weekend • March 16-17, 2012

Looking Out for No. 1Peter Starrett scored his first collegiate goal at Colgate Jan. 20. Starrett is listed as a defenseman but has skated at forward for much of the season. A week earlier, he had what would have been his first goal called back for a dislodged net against Union at Fenway Park.

Instant ImpactBrendan Rempel (Willington, Conn.), who missed the first 18 games with an injury, registered assists in two of his first three games back, beginning with the Jan. 27 win against Yale.

Crimson InternationalThe Harvard roster features players from an NCAA-high six countries, including Europeans Ryan McGregor, Petr Placek, Alex Fallstrom and David Valek. Tommy O’Regan was born in Germany, and Conor Morrison represented Germany in the 2009 International Ice Hockey Federation World Junior Championship. McGregor has played in two World Juniors for Switzerland, and 22 total Harvard players have been chosen to represent their countries at the tournament, most recently Louis Leblanc for Canada and McGregor for Switzerland in 2011.

Power SurgeDating back to 2010-11, Harvard has netted 35 power-play goals in its last 28 ECAC games. The Crimson has had three man-advantage goals in three games and two in nine others. The Jan. 13 shutout loss to Union ended a Harvard streak of 18 games with a power-play goal. Harvard has 10 goals in its eight playoff games in 2011 and ’12.

Firing LineThe Crimson put a then-season-high 44 shots on goal at UMass, including a combined 27 from the line of Marshall Everson, Alex Killorn and Alex Fallstrom. Killorn logged 11 shots, while Everson had nine and Fallstrom added seven. Harvard has held nine opposing teams to fewer than 27 shots.

Goals, Goals, GoalsHarvard’s seven goals against New Hampshire marked, at the time, its greatest output since 2008. The Crimson last scored seven or more goals in a regular-season game in an 8-1 win at Union Feb. 1, 2005. The victory against UNH featured the most combined goals in a Harvard game since an 8-6 home win against Princeton Nov. 13, 2004.

Not Your Average ComebackBefore Nov. 22, Harvard last rallied from a four-goal deficit to win Feb. 6, 2004, when the Crimson trailed Yale 4-0 after one period and 5-1 in the second before coming back to win, 7-5, in New Haven, Conn.

Conference CallECAC Hockey teams combined to go 43-42-14 against teams from outside the league in the 2011-12 regular season. ECAC squads posted a combined record of 50-33-15 against teams from outside the conference last season.

Oh, BrotherThe Biega brothers played together for the Crimson in 2009-10, Danny’s freshman year, becoming the second trio of brothers to suit up for the same Harvard team (joining Mark Moore ’00, Steve Moore ’01 and Dominic Moore in 1999-00). After four years with at least two Biega brothers on the Crimson, there is a new pair of Harvard brothers in 2011-12. Junior forward Marshall Everson and freshman defenseman Max Everson were previously teammates at Edina High School. Connor Riley is the brother of former Crimson goalie John Riley ’10. At least 41 sets of brothers have lettered for Harvard.

New Faces Behind the BenchTwo assistant coaches are in their first year with the Crimson. Albie O’Connell comes to Cambridge following three years at Northeastern. He also previously coached at Merrimack, Holy Cross, Niagara and Colby. O’Connell played at Boston University, where he won four Beanpots and a Hockey East Championship and advanced to the NCAA Frozen Four twice. Jerry Forton was an assistant coach at UMass Lowell for two seasons after 13 years at Niagara. He coached or recruited five River Hawks and seven to the Purple Eagles who were drafted or signed NHL free-agent contracts.

Well PreparedThanks to new ice compressors installed in summer 2010, the 2011 summer was the first in which the Bright Hockey Center ice was available for members of the Crimson to use. The team took advantage, as most players were able to spend time skating together in the summer. The entire squad was able to take part in captains’ practices together upon arrival on campus for classes, rather than waiting until mid-September.

A Strong FinishThe Crimson played its best hockey at the end of last season. Harvard won six straight games, including a sweep at Clarkson in the first round of the playoffs and a defeat of Dartmouth in Game 1 of the teams’ quarterfinal series. That win against the Big Green completed a run of eight wins and a tie in a 10-game span for the Crimson. Dartmouth won the last two games of the series by a goal each, with Game 2 reaching overtime, to earn a trip to the ECAC semifinals.

Crimson, White and BlueHarvard men’s hockey equipment manager John O’Donnell spent part of the summer working with the U.S. National Women’s Team at the IIHF World Women’s Championship. Team USA, led by Harvard women’s head coach Katey Stone, won the gold medal.

Crimson, Black and GoldThere is a strong Harvard presence in the front office of the Stanley Cup-champion Boston Bruins. Former Crimson captain Peter Chiarelli ’87 is the Bruins’ general manager, and former All-American Don Sweeney ’88 is the team’s assistant general manager. Sweeney played alongside Chiarelli at Harvard and was a teammate of Ted Donato with both the Crimson and the Bruins. Another of Donato’s Harvard teammates, John Weisbrod ’91, was Boston’s director of collegiate scouting before being named assistant general manager/player personnel for the Calgary Flames in summer 2011. Dr. Lars Richardson, a Crimson team physician, serves in the same capacity with the Bruins.

A Harvard TradeAlex Fallstrom was traded from one Harvard alum to another in October 2009. Minnesota Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher ’90 played on the Harvard junior varsity team, and Boston general manager Peter Chiarelli was the Crimson’s 91st captain. Chiarelli acquired Fallstrom’s draft rights from Fletcher in a deal involving forward Chuck Kobasew. Fletcher and Chiarelli are two of the three NHL general managers with Harvard degrees. The other is Brian Burke LAW ’81 of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

“Harvard Hulk”Danny Biega was one of the top performers at the 2010 NHL Draft Combine. He had the top overall numbers in the right-hand grip (185 pounds), left-hand grip (176), push strength (329), pull strength (328), bench press (20 reps of 150 pounds) and upper-body power (tossed four-kilogram medicine ball 261 inches). Biega ranked in the top 10 in more than half of the 31 strength and conditioning tests, earning him the nickname “Harvard Hulk,” in a Yahoo! Sports article.

Wearing No. 19 for Tampa BayFormer Harvard captain and All-America selection Dominic Moore played center for the Tampa Bay Lightning, wearing jersey No. 19, until being traded to the San Jose Sharks last month. Harvard’s current No. 19 is Lightning draft pick Alex Killorn, also a center.

Ringing EndorsementAlex Killorn was recently profiled on TampaBayLightning.com. The article quoted Tampa Bay Lightning rookie Brett Connolly, Killorn’s roommate at last summer’s prospects camp as saying, “He’s a smart hockey player and he’s got one of the best shots, releases, I’ve ever seen.” Lightning player development consultant Steve Thomas said, “I see a guy that is ready to make the jump to the professional ranks ... He’s a big, strong kid who can really shoot the puck. He goes out and makes a difference every night for his team.”

In the NHLFour former Harvard players have skated in the NHL this year. Craig Adams ’99 is a 10-year NHL veteran and two-time Stanley Cup champion. Dominic Moore has recorded 178 points in seven-plus NHL seasons. Louis Leblanc made his NHL debut Nov. 30, and Dylan Reese ’07 plays defense for the New York Islanders.

* Preliminary game (1990-1997): In these seasons, the No. 10 seed played the No. 7 seed and No. 9 played No. 8 to advance into the quarterfinals. Harvard made just one appearance in this round, in the final season under the format.

** ECAC first round games were instituted with the 2003 tournament, as the playoff format changed to a 12-team tournament in which the top four teams receive byes.

*** The Lake Placid play-in game was instituted in the 1997-98 season, when the league went to a “final five” format in Lake Placid. In this format, quarterfinal winners advanced to the final five and were reseeded (if necessary) according to their regular-season finish. The No. 5 and No. 4 seeds played the preliminary game, with the winner advancing to the semifinal against the top seed. This format was abandoned after the 2002 championship.

ECAC Hockey Championship Weekend • March 16-17, 2012

Following success as a player at the collegiate, professional and international levels, Ted Donato has accomplished much in seven-plus years as head coach at his alma mater. The 2011-12 Tim Taylor Award finalist and former Crimson captain has guided Harvard to its first consecutive 20-win seasons in more than a decade, captured ECAC and Ivy League titles, claimed two NCAA tournament bids, led his team to three league finals and coached two All-Americans and four National Hockey Leaguers.

The owner of a 115-119-32 career record, Donato accumulated a program-high 56 victories in his first three years. He is the fourth Harvard coach to total 100 wins, joining Bill Cleary ’56 (324 wins), who coached Donato at Harvard, Hockey Hall of Famer Ralph “Cooney” Weiland (315) and Ronn Tomassoni (140).

Donato, an NCAA champion as a Crimson player, Olympian and 13-year NHL veteran, was introduced as the Robert D. Ziff ’88 Head Coach for Harvard Men’s Ice Hockey July 2, 2004.

A 1991 graduate, Donato is just the Crimson’s sixth head coach since 1950. He is the eighth Harvard alum to serve as the program’s head coach. The appointment is his first coaching position.

Donato did not look like a rookie coach in his debut season in 2004-05, leading the Crimson to a 21-10-3 record, runner-up finishes in the ECAC Hockey League regular season and tournament and an NCAA tournament bid. His 2005-06 Harvard squad followed with another 21-win season, captured the ECACHL and Ivy League championships and made another NCAA appearance. Donato is the only head coach to take Harvard to the NCAA tournament in each of his first two years.

Donato’s teams have shown the tendency to come through in the clutch that was a trademark of his playing career. They have gone 22-3-1 in February home games and 42-22-9 in league games following the annual break for final exams. The 2007-08 Crimson closed the year on a 10-3-1 run, reaching the finals of the Beanpot and league playoffs. Harvard capped the 2008-09 regular season with a 4-0-2 spurt and then won seven of its final 10 games in 2010-11.

Noah Welch ’05 and Dov Grumet-Morris ’05 earned All-America selection under Donato in 2004-05. Welch went on to skate in the NHL, as did Tom Cavanagh ’05, Dylan Reese ’07 and Louis Leblanc.

As an undergraduate, Donato etched his name alongside Harvard’s all-time greats. He finished his career 11th on the Crimson’s career scoring chart (50 goals, 94 assists, 144 points) and remains 12th in that category.

He earned All-ECAC and All-Ivy accolades while serving as Harvard’s 95th captain in his senior season.

Donato was named Most O u t s t a n d i n g Player of the 1989 NCAA Frozen Four, where Harvard downed Minnesota, 4-3, in overtime in the NCAA championship game. He scored two goals in the title game, one that tied the game at 1-1 in the second period and another that gave the Crimson a 3-2 lead in the third. Donato logged three goals and a pair of assists in the tournament.

He earned the Donald Angier Hockey Trophy as the team’s most improved player in 1989 and accepted the Ralph “Cooney” Weiland Award for spirit and devotion to Harvard hockey in 1991

A native of Dedham, Mass., Donato was a member of seven U.S. national teams, including the 1992 Olympic team. He tied for the team lead in scoring with four goals and three assists in eight games in the Olympics and posted 11 goals and 22 assists in the pre-Games schedule. He also played in the World Championships in 1997 (4-2-6 in 8 GP), 1999 (2-6-8 in 8 GP) and 2002 (1-3-4 in 7 GP) and in the 1988 World Junior Championship (3-2-5 in 7 GP).

Donato was selected by the Boston Bruins in the fifth round of the 1987 NHL Entry Draft (98th overall), and he signed with his hometown club in March 1992 following the Olympic Games. His 13-year pro career included stops in New York (with the Rangers and Islanders), Los Angeles, Ottawa, Anaheim and St. Louis. He returned to the Bruins as a free agent in July 2003.

His NHL career spanned 796 games, in which he scored 150 goals with 197 assists for 347 points. Donato had eight goals and 18 assists in 58 career playoff games. With 25 goals in 1996-97, he became the first U.S.-born player to lead the Bruins in goals.

Donato graduated Catholic Memorial School as its all-time leading scorer. The son of Michael and Mary Donato, Ted and his three brothers were all active in athletics. Brother Michael played baseball at Princeton; Chris played hockey, baseball and football at Williams; and Dan played hockey and baseball at Boston University. Their sister, Paula, is a plastics engineer.

Donato is a resident of Scituate, Mass., with his wife, Jeannine, and their four children: Ryan, Jack, Nolan and Madelyn.
