Johnnies Settle for 4-4 Tie vs. MSOE


Box Score

ST. CLOUD, Minn. - No. 15 Saint John's and the Milwaukee School of Engineering (Wis.) ended the weekend series with a 4-4 tie on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 7, at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center (HBNHC) in St. Cloud.

On the power play and with the goaltender pulled, Ryan Reid scored the game-tying, 6-on-4 goal for MSOE (1-0-1 overall) with 32 seconds remaining in regulation.

Sophomore forward Lewis Crosby (Edina, Minn.) scored a hat trick for SJU (1-1-1 overall), his first goals as a Johnnie, and sophomore forward Nick Michel (Waconia, Minn.) assisted on two of them. SJU's last hat trick was nearly nine months to the date: Travis Brown '21 on Feb. 5, 2021, at Bethel.

Sophomore forward Max Borst (Edina, Minn.) gave the home team a very quick 1-0 lead with his first career goal 16 seconds into the game. The tally was SJU's fastest to start a game since Nov. 2, 2007 (Nate Meinz '08, 16 seconds, at Wisconsin-Stevens Point) and the fastest to start a period since Jan. 21, 2016 (Andrew Commers '16, 15 seconds into the second period at Bethel).

Crosby extended SJU's lead to 2-0 with his first goal of the afternoon, shorthanded, at the 8:09 mark of the first period. 



Christian Sabin, who recorded three assists last night, took advantage of a defensive-zone turnover by the Johnnies to cut the Raiders' deficit in half with 2:15 left in the opening period. Stian Owens tied the game at 2-2 on the power play 14:53 into the second period and Sabin gave MSOE its first lead of the game with 1:33 left in the frame, roughly a minute after Crosby rattled a shot off the pipe during a man advantage.

Crosby re-tied the game for SJU with 41 seconds left in the second period and tallied the go-ahead goal at the 12:38 mark of the third period.

Senior goaltender Mac Berglove (Elk River, Minn.) made 30 saves in the tie, as SJU out-shot MSOE 36-34.

The two teams held an exhibition shootout following the game, which SJU won, 1-0:

-MSOE Round 1: Garrett Gintoli, Berglove saved
-SJU Round 1: Crosby, Nick Stofcheck saved

-MSOE Round 2: Kyle Herbster, Berglove saved
-SJU Round 2: Auggie Moore, goal

-MSOE Round 3: Matt Hanewall, wide

The Johnnies end their season-opening, four-game homestand with the MIAC opener against Bethel at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 10, at the HBNHC.
