Yeah, Looks like we need to clean things up with the penalty minutes. It's difficult win a game killing penalties for 60 minutes...Slow start for the Purps.

The Purple Eagles nearly tied the game when RIT turned it over in the neutral zone, giving Billings a breakaway shot attempt that was then thwarted by RIT's goalie. The play also ran out the clock on the RIT power play,
