Knights Secure 5th Place with 4-3 Win Over Dartmouth in Men's Hockey

Junior Jordan Boucher with a two-goal, one-assist effort for the Clarkson University Hockey team highlighted the Golden Knights' 4-3 victory over Dartmouth in the regular season finale on Saturday before 3,107 fans at Cheel Arena on Senior Night.
 
Clarkson, which closed out the regular season on a two-game winning streak, finished in a tie for fifth place in the ECAC Hockey standings with a 10-9-3 league mark. The Green and Gold, who stand at 18-13-3 overall, will host Princeton in the best-of-three game series next weekend in Potsdam.
 
Boucher scored twice in the first period and played a leading role on a Clarkson second-period goal as the Knights built a 4-1 lead late in the middle frame. Dartmouth (14-14-1, 11-11-0) mounted a comeback with a goal late in the second and early in the third to cut the lead to 4-3, but Clarkson held off the Big Green the rest of the way to improve its record at Cheel to 13-2-2 on the season.
 
Boucher gave the Knights a 2-1 lead after the first period with a goal early and late in the stanza. He tallied his first of the night at 3:06 when he took a pass at center ice from junior defenseman James de Haas, split the Dartmouth defense and fired a shot past Big Green goaltender Charles Grant. Sophomore rearguard Terrance Amorosa also assisted.
 
Boucher nearly connected three minutes later, but a hard shot on a breakaway rang off the crossbar.
 
Dartmouth evened the score with a power-play tally from Nick Bligh at 15:44.
 
Boucher, however, put the Green and Gold back on top with 1:15 remaining in the period. The left wing took a pass off the left boards from Amorosa and got behind the Big Green defense, flipping in a backhand shot for his eighth goal of the season. Sophomore center Brett Gervais also earned an assist after winning a draw back to Amorosa.
 
Another strong play by Boucher gave the Knights a 3-1 lead midway through the middle frame. Boucher took a pass from senior defenseman Paul Geiger in the Clarkson end and skated up ice and over the Dartmouth blueline where he sent a pass too Gervais, who scored his fifth of the season at 10:46.
 
Sophomore Sam Vigneault made it 4-1 for the Green and Gold with his team-high 11th goal of the season off an assist from classmate Dylan Gareau when he scored from the bottom of the right circle at 14:56.
 
The Big Green pulled back to within two with Tim O'Brien's goal with 1:58 left in the stanza.
 
Dartmouth made it a one-goal game at 6:27 of the third with Corey Kalk's tally, but that was as close as the visitors would get.
 
Dartmouth outshot Clarkson 38-27. Junior Greg Lewis played another solid game in the Knights' crease with a 35-save effort. Charles Grant made 23 stops for the Big Green.
 
The Knights were 0-of-2 on the power play and killed off two-of-three Dartmouth man-advantage opportunities.
