About the Big Red: Cornell started its season with a bang last weekend, convincingly sweeping a two-game non-league series against Alabama-Huntsville at Lynah Rink. This marks the fourth time in the last six years the Big Red has started 2-0. The Big Red never trailed and actually held the lead for 112:16 of the weekend s 120 minutes to breeze to victories of 5-1 on Friday and 3-0 on Saturday. UAH came into the weekend with hot special teams play, but Cornell scored four power-play goals and was a perfect 12-for-12 on the penalty kill. Freshman goaltender Matthew Galajda played a big role in the weekend, stopping 16 of 16 shots in his first collegiate period en route to a 28-save victory in Game 1, then an 11-save shutout on Saturday. Senior forward Trevor Yates has taken the early lead in team scoring with four points on three goals all on the power play and one assist. He was named the ECAC Hockey Player of the Week on Tuesday. Sophomore forward Jeff Malott scored twice in the opener.

After leading the team with eight goals on the man advantage last year, Yates potted three power-play goals last weekend against Alabama-Huntsville. Despite having only played two games this year, he s still tied for fifth in the country in power-play goals. A New Tender s Turn: The Big Red graduated three-year starting goaltender Mitch Gillam 17 after last season, but the team hasn t yet missed a beat with freshman Matthew Galajda taking the reins in the early going this year. Galajda (2-0, 0.50,.975, SO) is the first Big Red freshman goalie to record a shutout within his first two starts since Ben Scrivens 10 did so during the season. Fresh Faces: Eight freshmen made their collegiate debuts during the Big Red s first two games last weekend, including seven on Friday. It marked the first time Cornell had seven freshmen skate in its season opener since The Offensive Defense: Cornell scored quickly in each of last weekend s games, and both goals came from seemingly unlikely sources a pair of everyday defensemen that scored a combined three goals last season, juniors Alec McCrea and Matt Nuttle. The last time the Big Red had the first goal scored by a blueliner in each of its first two games was 1995 Mike Schafer s first year as head coach. Feel The Draft?: Cornell has six players on the roster who have been selected in the NHL Entry Draft, including four from Junior forward Beau Starrett (Chicago Blackhawks) was selected earliest in that group, having been taken in the third round with the 88th overall pick. Classmate Anthony Angello, also a forward, was selected in the fifth round by the Pittsburgh Penguins. Junior forwards Jared Fiegl (Arizona Coyotes) and Dwyer Tschantz (St. Louis Blues) were then picked in the seventh round. Two newcomers are also NHL draft picks forward Morgan Barron (N.Y. Rangers in 2017) and defenseman Matt Cairns (Edmonton Oilers in 2016). Perennial Contention Last season marked Cornell's seventh trek to ECAC Hockey s championship weekend over the last 10 years, which is tops among the circuit s 12 teams.

3 First Ivy League Coach To 400: Already the winningest coach in program history and in Ivy League history, Mike Schafer eclipsed another milestone in his career with his 400th victory last January. Schafer ranks 10th in victories among active Division I coaches and is Cornell s fifth-winningest coach across all sports second among current coaches, behind just Dave Eldredge (men s and women s polo). Turning The Trick: After having no hat tricks since 2011, the Big Red had two last year. Mitch Vanderlaan s hat trick Nov. 12 at Yale earned him ECAC Hockey Player of the Week on Nov. 15. He potted a couple more goals Nov. 19 against Princeton to become the first player from Cornell with seven goals in the first seven games of the season since Blake Gallagher did so in Jeff Malott then scored his first three collegiate goals in a span of 8 minutes, 44 seconds during the first period to power the Big Red past Princeton on Jan. 13. He was subsequently named ECAC Hockey Rookie of the Week after becoming the first Cornell freshman with a hat trick since current NHLer Matt Moulson on Feb. 7, What, Me Worry?: Eight of Cornell s 21 victories last season came in games in which the Big Red surrendered the first goal, with the team maintaining a winning record even when it conceded first. The Big Red s resilience from an early deficit has become somewhat of a trend, with the team sporting a very respectable record when yielding the game s first strike over the last two years. That s a stark turnaround from the team s record when yielding the game s first goal from the previous three seasons ( ).

10 Box Scores Game 1: Cornell 5, Ala.-Huntsville 1 Friday, October 27 at Ithaca, N.Y. Matthew Galajda made 28 stops in his collegiate debut, including six stops during an elongated stretch of penalty kill time spanning the first intermission. Jeff Malott scored twice in the third period, when the Big Red yielded just three shots on goal to the visitors in effectively protecting the lead. The Big Red was not only shorthanded for a stretch of 5 minutes, 2 seconds, but within that span it faced a two-man disadvantage for a whopping 3:18. After the kills, Cornell expanded on an early one-goal lead with strikes with two minutes of each other from Trevor Yates and Morgan Barron to take a commanding 3-0 lead. The Big Red s four-goal margin of victory was the program s largest to start a season since a 7-1 thumping of Army to kick off the campaign. A total of seven freshmen made their collegiate debuts four forwards, two defensemen and Galajda in goal. UAH Cornell st: 1, COR, McCrea, Alec/1 (Starrett, Beau/1) 04:39 (pp).

Game 2: Cornell 3, Ala.-Huntsville 0 Saturday, October 28 at Ithaca, N.Y. Trevor Yates set up Matt Nuttle s goal in the game s first four minutes, then scored two of his own on the power play in the second and third periods. Matthew Galajda made 11 saves for his first collegiate shutout in just his second start, and the Big Red defense blocked 17 shots to minimize UAH s scoring chances. Yanni Kaldis had primary assists on both of Yates goals. The Big Red power play produced four goals over the weekend series. Cornell capped a perfect 12-for-12 weekend on the penalty kill against a UAH power play that entered the weekend firing at a nearly 30 percent success rate.
