The UNC men’s ice hockey team (18-6-1) fell to the N.C. State Ice Pack (17-13), 6-2, on Monday night at PNC Arena during the Carolina Classic — ending North Carolina's 10-game win streak.
The North Carolina men’s ice hockey team (18-5-1) beat the N.C. State Ice Pack (16-13), 3-2, in overtime at PNC Arena after a delay in last Friday’s game.The Tar Heel hockey team relied heavily on goaltender Lucas Brown early in the first period, as the Ice Pack was able to populate the UNC zone. The Tar Heels struggled to transition through the neutral zone and shied away from being aggressive toward the loose puck.The Ice Pack struck first on a power play after Tar Heel senior captain Henry Foster was charged with a minor penalty on an elbowing call. With two minutes left in the first period, N.C. State found the back of the net again off the stick of first-year Nick Shook. During the physical first period, UNC was outshot by the Ice Pack 12-7 as they headed into the first intermission.Things got chippy as Tar Heel Cuan Doig and Jackson Cowen of N.C. State both received minor penalties for roughing, leaving both teams down a skater.To add insult to injury, another minor penalty was added to N.C. State, leaving them with four skaters. Head coach Adam Duada opted to pull Brown to give the Tar Heels an extra skater. The penalties kept accumulating, with sophomore Patrick O’Shaughnessy receiving one for tripping, giving N.C. State another power play opportunity. The Tar Heel defense, led by Foster, was able to fend off the potential Ice Pack surge, killing the penalty.
