Over on USCHO, Jayson Moy reports that RPI scored two unanswered goals in the third period to cruise to an easy 3-1 victory over Iona College. The score is perhaps not indicative of the way Rensselaer dominated the game: the Engineers outshot the Gaels 48-26.

Freshman Nick Economakos put the game away for RPI with his first collegiate goal. He also pitched in with an assist. Ryan Shields scored the first goal of the game for the Engineers. Marc Cavosie scored the game winner. After giving up a goal at 8:02 of the first period, Nathan Marsters made it look easy by making 25 saves en route to the win.
