goalie Matt O’Connor, who stopped 92 of 96 North Dakota shots in the two-game
weekend series, earned Hockey East’s Defensive Player of the Week honors. Named
to the weekly list of top performers were Matt Lane, co-captain Garrett Noonan,
Danny O’Regan and Nick Roberto.
The
fourth renewal of Red
Hot Hockey between the Terriers and Cornell, set for Saturday night, Nov.
30, at newly refurbished Madison Square Garden, is reportedly a sellout and
also will be available on the Terrier TV pay-per-view service. Details.
Freshman right wing Kevin Duane explained (video) what he’s looking forward to on
Saturday.
A
BU grad and a Cornell grad, got together this year to co-sponsor a Cup named
after two legendary hockey coaches: Boston University’s Jack Kelley and
Cornell’s Ned Harkness. They agreed that the Cup’s permanent name would be
determined by the outcome of the game on November 30, 2013. If BU wins, it’s
the “Kelley-Harkness Cup.” If Cornell
wins, it’s the “Harkness-Kelley Cup.”
Looking
ahead
2015
recruit Charlie McAvoy scored his second goal of the season in the NTDP U17s’ 5-2 loss to
Tri City.
Looking
back
Sharks’
site “Blades of Teal” examines
the path that led Matt Nieto from the NTDP program to BU and now to the
NHL.
Rick
DiPietro, whose career has been detoured multiple times by injury, is
attempting a comeback in the AHL with Charlotte. The New York Times checked in
with the former BU netminder to discuss
his progress. Last night, DiPietro
was on the short end of a 4-3 loss to Rockford, who got on the board first on
an Adam Clendening goal.
Sahir
Gill assisted on two goals as ECHL Wheeling doubled up Cincinnati, 4-2.
The Nailers, coached by former Terrier Clark Donatelli, now are tied for the
Atlantic Division lead.
Women’s
Team
Senior
goalie Kerrin Sperry was named Hockey East Defensive
Player of the Week following 29-save efforts against both Harvard and New
Hampshire. Sarah Lefort, Rebecca Russo and Kayla Tutino all made the weekly top
performers’ list.
With
their record now at 11-3-1, Terriers remained at #9 in the USCHO poll.
Terriers
have received a commitment
for 2014 from standout goalie Erin O’Neill from Minnetonka, Minn., and Hopkins
High School. Both O’Neill and a fellow 2014 recruit, blueliner Toni Ann Miano,
were members of the U.S. National Under 18 squad that battled Canada in a
three-game series last summer.
