Box Score

ST. CLOUD, Minn. - Saint John's University junior captain Auggie Moore (Edina, Minn.) scored the game-winning goal with 0:00.1 remaining to give the Johnnies a 3-2 victory over No. 4 Augsburg on Saturday, Feb. 19, at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center (HBNHC) in St. Cloud.

Moore took the puck at the Johnnies' own blue line and skated into the offensive zone, stick-handled past two Auggie defenders into the slot and ripped home a wrister for his second goal of the night and 13th of the season (see below).

SJU (16-7-2, 9-4-1 MIAC) was awarded a five-minute power play when Mason Palmer checked Moore high into the glass after a scoreless first period expired. The Johnnies, however, were whistled for a penalty 2:23 into the major. Nevertheless, Moore put the home team in front 1-0 with two seconds left on the 4-on-4.



Junior defenseman Peter Tabor (Edina, Minn.) made it 2-0 with a power-play goal 34 seconds later, his third tally of the season, on assist to senior goaltender Mac Berglove (Elk River, Minn.). The assist was the second of Berglove's career and first since his freshman season (at home against Augsburg on Feb. 1, 2018). Berglove improved to 12-5-2 on the year with 31 saves on the night.



Augsburg (22-3, 14-2 MIAC) cut its deficit in half on a goal from Tommy Carls with six seconds left in the second period and tied it on the stick of Austin Martinsen with 3:48 remaining in regulation. The loss snapped the Auggies' 13-game win streak.

The Johnnies host an opponent yet to be determined (either sixth-seeded Saint Mary's or seventh-seeded St. Olaf) in the MIAC quarterfinals at 6 p.m. next Sunday, Feb. 27, at the HBNHC.
