BOSTON - Sophomore Denisa Krizova scored her second collegiate hat trick and senior Kendall Coyne tied a career high with five assists as the No. 7 Northeastern women's hockey team (19-4-1, 14-2-0 WHEA) flexed its offensive muscles in an 8-1 win over Maine (7-15-2, 3-11-1 WHEA) on Saturday at Matthews Arena.
Krizova also added two assists for her first career five-point game, while Coyne notched her second straight five-point effort after posting two goals and three assists on Wednesday at Providence. Junior Hayley Scamurra and freshman Kasidy Anderson each notched a goal and an assist, and sophomore Shelby Herrington, redshirt junior Paige Savage and junior Melissa Haganey also scored as the Huskies won their eighth straight game.
In total, 12 different Northeastern players registered at least one point as the Huskies fired a season-high 64 shots on goal and scored at least eight goals for the third time this season.
Freshman Brittany Bugalski was solid in goal, stopping 22 of 23 shots to improve to 3-0-0 in 2016.
