Mark McRae slammed home a rebound with 14 seconds left in overtime to lift Cornell to a 3-2 win over Vermont. The goal came on the power play and was McRae’s second of the evening.<\/p>\n
With the win, Cornell improves to 7-4-3 overall and 5-1-1 in the ECAC, while Vermont falls to 9-5-1 (5-2-1 ECAC).<\/p>\n
Vermont got on the board first when Bryson Busniuk took a quick pass from a Jim Gernander steal and fired it past Matt Underhill from the left faceoff circle.<\/p>\n
In the second period, the Big Red pulled even at four-on-four as Alex Gregory found Larry Pierce from behind the net. Pierce quickly moved it to McRae and he flipped it past Andrew Allen for the goal.<\/p>\n
Andrew McNiven made it 2-1 for Cornell early in the third period with his first of the season. Shane Palahicky raced down the left wing and he sent a pass to Krystof Wieckowski. Allen made the initial save, but McNiven was there to put the rebound home.<\/p>\n
The Cats tied it later in the period as Graham Mink scored.<\/p>\n
Vermont started the overtime on the power play but could not convert, and then went down a man as Andreas Moborg was called for hooking with 49 seconds left in the overtime.<\/p>\n
