"This team had a relentless belief that they were going to come back," Stone said. "Everybody in the stands saw it, and I think there were a lot of Duluth people who were afraid of it. If you can make people nervous like that, you're doing a lot of good things."

The three accounted for just one of Harvard's 18 shot attempts in the third period.
Led by sophomore winger and Finnish national team member Hanne Sikio, Duluth got three goals from its second line, the difference in the game. In the end, six forwards tallied multiple points for the Bulldogs.
Duluth was tough and skilled. The Crimson was not ready.
