| Oct. 23 | McGill | 2-2 |
* October 23: The Harvard women's hockey team took a 2-1 lead into the third period but allowed a goal for a 2-2 tie at Bright Hockey Center. McGill took advantage of a five-on-three situation early in the first period as Cathy Chartrand took a feed from Gillian Ferrari and beat Bellamy for a 1-0 lead. Harvard had several opportunities on the power play in the 17th minute, but could not score on McGill netminder Andrea Wickman. With less than a minute to play in the game, McGill pulled its goaltender. With an extra skater, Ann-Sophie Bettez and Leslie Oles almost scored. In the end, Katia Clement-Hydra converted from close range to tie the score at 2-2. The overtime stanza did not result in a game-winning goal.

## Regular season

* Crimson skater Liza Ryabkina from Ukraine scored three goals in two games to open the season. Against archrival Yale. This weekend, Ryabinka scored two goals. Her second goal came with 14 seconds left in regulation and forced overtime. The second game was versus the Brown Bears and Ryabkina scored in the second period.
* January 15: A pair of quick goals to start the third period was all the offense the Crimson required. The Bright Hockey Center saw the defense preserve a 2-1 victory over St. Lawrence.
* January 22: In front of a crowd of prominent alumnae and Harvard Olympians, the women's hockey team collected its fourth consecutive win. The Crimson defeated Union by a 4-0 tally at Bright Hockey Center. Gina McDonald netted her first collegiate goal in the game.
