Cornell senior goaltender Ian Shane has been named ECAC Hockey’s Goaltender of the Week.

The honor is Shane’s second time being tabbed ECAC Hockey’s top goaltender of the week and is his first time selected since Nov. 4 after he backstopped the Big Red to its sweep of then-No. 6-ranked North Dakota in its season-opening series at Lynah Rink.

Shane stopped 40 of 44 shots (.909 save percentage) during the Big Red’s weekend sweep of Brown and Yale, serving as one of two ECAC Hockey goaltenders to have two wins on the weekend, joined by Harvard freshman Ben Charette.

The pair of victories posted by Shane increased the Manhattan Beach native’s career total to 59, surpassing Andy Iles for the fifth-most wins by a Cornell goaltender in program history. Shane’s 40 saves upped his career total to 2,136 saves, only seven stops from tying Darren Eliot (2,143 saves) for the eight-most saves in program history.

In last Friday’s win over Brown, the Los Angeles Jr. Kings product made 17 saves before stopping 23 shots in Cornell’s triumph over Yale.

Across his 13 appearances against the pair of Ivy League rivals, Shane has a combined 10-1-2 record with a 1.14 goals-against average and .935 save percentage.
