How It Happened
The Fighting Irish scored three goals over a six-minute span midway through the first period to establish a 3-0 lead, including a pair of Trevor Janicke goals as well as a Max Ellis tally.
Janicke got it started at 6:11 when he one-timed Chase Blackmun feed from the top of the circle, low past Tommy Scarfone while the teams were skating 4-on-4. For Blackmun it marked his first point in an Irish uniform, while Solag Bakich had the second assist.
Ellis netted next, picking up a rebound and skating across the slot to fire home his second of the season at 10:35, with assists to Adam Karashik and Bakich after a heated scramble in front.
Janicke’s second of the night came at 13:31 on a wrist shot from the high slot, with assists from Adam Karashik and Bakich — his third helper of the period.
Galajda then made a point blank stop on RIT’s Caleb Moretz with 1:45 left in the first while the Irish were on the penalty kill, keeping Notre Dame in front 3-0 at the first intermission.
Ellis scored his second of the night at 12:14 of the second with a wrister from the high slot that beat Scarfone through a screen, with the assists going to Blackmun and Graham Slaggert.
Landon Slaggert extended the lead to 5-0 with a power-play goal at 13:22 of the second, jamming home his own rebound in front after Jesse Lansdell found him on the doorstep. Cam Burke had the second assist on the play.
