The No. 14 Providence College men's ice hockey team completed a two-game sweep of the Arizona State Sun Devils after a 2-1 win on Saturday, October 19 at Schneider Arena. Zachary Borgiel stopped 31-of-32 shots in his first start as a Friar, while Hudson Malinoski led the way with a goal and an assist.

- Neither team connected on offense through the first 40 minutes, giving the Friars and Sun Devils a 20-20 deadlock in shots on goal. Providence's efforts were highlighted by a Logan Will breakaway chance midway through the first period and a Logan Sawyer breakaway chance that was thwarted in the second.

- Providence broke open the scoring at the 5:54 mark in the third period, as Hudson Malinoski put away a Nick Poisson rebound for his second tally of the year. Tanner Adams also had an assist on the play.

- With just over four minutes to play, Hudson Malinoski recovered the puck on the wall in the offensive zone before finding Taige Harding open on the blue line, who found a lane, connecting for his first score of the 2024-25 season.

- With just over 30 seconds remaining in the third period, Arizona State found the scoresheet on a Ryan Kirwan goal, capitalizing on the extra attacker opportunity and bringing about the final 2-1 score.

- Zachary Borgiel finished the night stopping 31-of-32 shots, good for a .969 save percentage and his first win as a starter with Providence.

- Four Friars landed a point in the win, led by a one-goal, one-assist performance from Hudson Malinoski.

- Sixteen different Friars landed a shot on net in the win, headlined by four-shot performances from Hudson Malinoski, Chase Yoder, Tanner Adams, and John Mustard.

- Providence improves to 4-1-0 all-time against the Sun Devils.

The Friars go on the road next weekend to open conference play, taking on the Vermont Catamounts in a two-game series at Gutterson Fieldhouse in Burlington, Vermont with a 7 p.m. puck drop Friday (Oct. 25).
