BU’s first exhibition game, against St. Francis Xavier, was one of those affairs where the score belied the on-ice action. Despite outshooting the X-Men by a 53-16 margin, the result was a 2-2 overtime tie. Nick Bonino and Corey Trivino (photo) scored the BU goals, while Kieran Millan stopped all seven shots he faced and Adam Kraus stopped seven of nine. Picking up where he left off last season, Zach Cohen earned the coaching staff’s designation as “Best player on the ice.”
