of trying to spoil their season once more. In the first game the two traded one-goals leads but by the end of 60 minutes the score was tied 2–2 and another overtime thriller was in the making. Harvard double-teamed Hale Palmer, the Elis' high-scoring winger, every time he touched the puck which enabled captain Putnam to score the winner early in the 10-minute extra-session. The following week Harvard again prevented Palmer from scoring, but his work in the offensive end caused two of Yale's goals and the Bulldogs won the rematch 3–1. The playoff between the two would decide the Intercollegiate title and both teams prepared for a battle. Harvard, who had been outshone by Yale through most of the season, took two leads during the game but was unable to hold onto either for too long and, once more, overtime was required. Rather than attack, Yale held back, playing a defensive style much like Harvard and the two teams rarely threatened each other's netminders. The result was three rather dull overtime periods and the game ended in a draw. Plans for a fourth and (hopefully) deciding game began immediately after the contest was over. A few days later, after a conference between the athletic directors of each school, W. J. Bingham of Harvard ultimately decided to end the Crimson's ice hockey season and leave the two without a clear victor. 1930 was the first time since 1900 that Harvard and Yale's ice hockey teams finished with a draw over the course of a season. The result was that both teams had claims to the eastern intercollegiate championship and would have to share the crown.
