Quinnipiac handled Providence 6-1 in regulation, and the margin was built at the edges of the game — a three-goal opening period and a three-goal third. The Bobcats never trailed, and the Friars never got the game back to within a goal after the first intermission.
Quinnipiac took the first period 3-0 and went to the break up 3-0. Providence answered with the only goal of the middle period to make it 3-1 after 40 minutes, which was as close as it got; the Bobcats then scored three more in the third to close it out at 6-1.
The number that frames it: 6-0 across the first and third periods. Providence won the second 1-0, and that was the extent of it — the Friars were outscored in both periods that mattered to the result.
