NOTES
- Alexei Kivioja opened the scoring 7:18 into the first. Clint Levens shot from the left point hit a pair of bodies in the slot and Kivioja collected the puck and tucked in his eighth of the season.
- The Huskies answered the bell in the second, outshooting the home team 22-12 and pulling even at one at 3:20 on a goal from Ryan Tattle.
- Logan Sawyer potted his 13th goal of the season early in the third on a breakaway as Providence regained the lead at 2-1. John Mustard flipped the puck from his own end through the neutral zone and onto the stick of Sawyer, who pulled the puck to his forehand, waited for Muszelik to go down, and slid the puck around his right pad and into the net.
- Graham Gamache sealed the 10th home win for the Friars with an empty-netter at 19:58 of the third.
- The Friars 23 wins thus far in 2025-26 is the fifth-highest total in program history, tying them with the 1984-85 squad which advanced to the Frozen Four. Their next win will tie them with the 2017-18 and 2018-19 teams, the latter of which also advanced to the Frozen Four.
- Providence improves to 18-7-7 all-time against the Huskies (.632 winning pct.) with tonight's win.
