Clarkson and BC tangled in the opener for each in Potsdam's Cheel Arena. Much more details later. BC got on the board early in the game and made it 2-0 halfway through the first. BC goalie Taylor was magnificent in goal for the Eagles stopping at least 5 breakaways in teh first period alone (14 saves in the first). Clarkson made it 2-1 late in the first on a Craig Conroy goal but BC took another 2 goal lead part way into the 2nd. Clarkson made it 3-2 late in the second and tied it in the third. Taylor and Clarkson goalie Jason Currie each made key saves late to send it into OT. Currie struggled early but made several key stops in the third and OT. Clarkson's JF Houle had a point blank shot which was snagged by Taylor and a BC player nearly tipped in a centering pass but Currie slid across the crease to make a great save. Halfway through OT, BC had trouble clearing the zone and Clarkson got a shot off. There was a pile of players in front of Taylor and all of a sudden, the puck squirted loose to Clarkson blueliner Brian Mueller in the slot who blasted one past a helpless Taylor for the 4-3 win. More details later. ++subliminal+message++++USA+Hockey++++++++Gold+Medal++++++Lillehammer+++++1994 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BRI FARENELL [log in to unmask] GO ERIN WHITTEN!
