At Hamilton: RPI 2 - 1 Colgate
The teams ended regulation tied at 1. 15 seconds into OT, RPI's CJ
Lee got called for a fiver for hitting from behind, putting RPI way
behind the 8-ball. But at some point, Chase Polacek grabbed the puck
and got a breakaway. He got hauled down at the blue line, resulting
in a penalty shot, which he proceeded to net, winning the game for
the Engineers.

I post this not so much to crow about the win (although it is nice to
have the Engineers winning in Starr). However, it's an extremely
unusual situation; I can't recall the last time I saw a penalty shot,
much less one in overtime. And to have that shot converted in OT is
beyond rare.
