Notre Dame Hockey: Purple Eagles Upset Fighting Irish​

The no. 10 Notre Dame Fighting Irish ended their semester break on Saturday evening, welcoming the Niagara Purple Eagles to Compton Family Ice Arena. The Irish entered the contest as huge favorites against the 4-10-2 Purple Eagles, who were outscored 20-4 in their four matchups against Big Ten teams prior to Saturday’s series opener.

First Period​

It may have been some rust after not playing in three weeks, but the Irish struggled in the opening period. The first penalty of the evening was called on Niagara’s Luke Edgerton, however a hooking call on Solag Bakich turned it into a 4-on-4 before the Irish could capitalize. With just over five minutes to go in the opening period, Jason Pineo’s first of the season opened the scoring for the Purple Eagles.

Second Period​

Despite a pair of penalties in the second, the Irish got on the board thanks to a short-handed goal by Spencer Stastney. It was the third goal of the season for the 2018 draft pick of the Nashville Predators. However, the Purple Eagles took the lead back when Albin Nilsson found the back of the net with just over six minutes in the period.

Third Period​

Near the midway point of the final frame, the Irish went on the power-play with a chance to tie the contest, but could only get two shots on net that were saved by Chad Veltri. Matthew Galajda was pulled with 30 second left, before an empty-netter by Nilsson put the game away for Niagara by a final score of 3-1 in front of a stunned Notre Dame crowd.

My ex is a huge Notre Dame fan (insert ‘you should’ve known’ joke here) and her father is a Notre Dame grad. They both told me that all Notre Dame cheerleaders are from St. Mary’s across the street from campus. After walking around Notre Dame’s campus, I understand why none of their girls are cheerleaders. Looks like a Mr. Ed convention. Just awful.

Unattravtive women, self-righteous entitlement and a fan base made up of obnoxious jerks - I don’t need more reasons to dislike them.

In the latest US News academic rankings Notre Dame is 19th among National Universities. Penn State is 63rd. Perhaps brains and beauty are mutually exclusive.
