Men's Hockey: Atop league, long layoff blessing and curse

What a difference a year can make. At this time last year, the men?s hockey team was reeling, having lost seven of its previous nine games, including its most recent series against Notre Dame by a combined score of 11-2.This season, it?s a different story for Princeton (10-2-0 overall, 7-1-0 ECAC Hockey). The Tigers enter the break atop the ECAC Hockey standings along with conference rivals Cornell (7-1-2, 6-0-2). With 14 points apiece, Princeton and Cornell have opened up a substantial first-half lead over their nearest competitors: Harvard and Dartmouth have each tallied 10 points.Junior netminder Zane Kalemba?s play has been the key to the Tigers? early-season success.
