HAMILTON, N.Y.—Junior goaltender David Cann recorded his second career shutout with 23 saves as the Colgate men’s ice hockey team defeated Brown 3-0 Friday night at Starr Rink.

Brown (4-2-0, 4-2-0) held Colgate to only 16 total shots, but failed to convert on its chances. The Raiders (5-6-1, 2-3 ECAC) killed all 10 shorthanded situations they faced en route to stopping a three-game slide.

“Our best game of the season, without question," head coach Don Vaughan. "Our penalty killing really played great tonight, and there was a lot of momentum in our favor because of that. Great effort from the goalie out.”

Colgate scored once in every period, led by senior Scooter Smith’s two-goal effort. Smith scored on the power play two minutes into the middle frame to give the Raiders a 2-0 edge. He later put the icing on the victory with a one-timer in the slot at 14:58 of the third period.

Highly touted Bears goaltender Yann Danis stopped a meager 13 shots, while his counterpart Cann closed the door on all 23 shots he faced.

Junior defenseman Rob Brown scored Colgate’s first goal just as a Raider power play expired. The goal marked the first time this season that Brown surrendered a game’s opening tally.

Senior P.J. Yedon registered two assists and received the game’s third star in the victory.
