Looking back
2009 Hobey Baker Award winner Matt Gilroy has signed an AHL
contract with the Connecticut Whale with reports indicating that once the
NHL lockout ends, he’ll be signed by the New York Rangers, his original NHL
club. Playing in the AHL’s Eastern
Conference, he’ll find himself across the ice from former BU teammates Brian Strait (Wilkes Barre/Scranton), Eric
Gryba (Binghamton), John McCarthy (Worcester) and Colby Cohen and David
Warsofsky (Providence).
The P-Bruins cut Justin Courtnall, who’ll begin his pro career with the ECHL South Carolina
Stingrays
Clark Donatelli,
a high scoring forward for BU in the mid-80s, will begin his first full season
as head
coach of the ECHL Wheeling Nailers. Donatelli, who scored 62 points for
BU’s first Hockey East championship team in 1985-86, had served as the Nailers’
interim coach for the final 55 games last season.
After a seven-year minor league career, former BU defenseman Bryan Miller
announced his retirement.A first team All Hockey East selection in 2004-05, Miller
spent the past five seasons as a mainstay on the Alaska Aces’ blueline, leading
the club to the 2011 Kelly Cup.
Looking ahead
2013 recruit Robbie Baillargeon scored an assist in Indiana's 3-2 win over the NTDP U17s. The assist continues a scoring streak--now at 10 games stretching back to last season--for Baillargeon, who was named an Ice co-captain. 2014 recruit Jack Eichel notched an assist for the U17s.
Women's Team
The #6 Terriers opened their regular season in
fine fashion doubling up #3/4 BC, 4-2, at Conte Fourm. Freshman forward Sarah
Lefort, just returned from a strong performance at Canadian National Team camp,
led the way with a pair of goals, including the game-winner in the third
period. Freshman Jordan Juron and
sophomore Shannon Stoneburgh also scored, while Kerrin Sperry made 29 saves en route to her 41st career win
