Looking back

The Bleacher Report took a crack at choosing the 10 greatest college hockey goals of all time. Nick Bonino’s game-tying goal in the 2009 NCAA final ranked third, while Mike Prendergast’s game-winner in 1993 that snapped Maine’s 32-game winning streak earned honorable mention. #1? Michigan’s Mike Legg’s “lacrosse goal” against Minnesota in the 1996 NCAA regioinal.

Women’s team
The #5/4 Terriers (5-1-1) continue their road trip with two games against top-ranked Wisconsin (7-1-0) at the Kohl Center. Both games begin at 3 p.m. ET. The series features a match-up of two of women’s hockey’s best goaltenders: BU’s Kerrin Sperry (1.98 GAA) and UW’s Alex Rigsby (2.04)
