Terriers dropped a 6-2 decision to Vermont in the second
game of the weekend series at Agganis Arena, giving the teams a split. After the visitors scored two even-strength
goals in the first period, Danny O’Regan’s
unassisted spin-o-rama goal cut the margin to one. But a shorthanded goal by
UVM’s Chris McCarthy restored the two-goal lead.
A Brady Shaw goal early in the third extended the lead to 4-1
before Kevin Duane (photo) scored his fifth of the season to make it
4-2.Two more Catamount goals late in the period produced the 6-2 final. Senior Anthony Moccia relieved a beleagured Sean Maguire in goal for the final 3:46, making his
first appearance in a regular-season game. He stopped the only shot he faced.
The only other bright spot for the Terriers was 42-22
advantage on faceoffs with Mike Moran and Dillon Lawrence combining to win 21 of 27 draws.

Looking ahead
2016 recruit Clayton Keller (left) scored
a hat trick for Shattuck St. Mary’s Prep in its 8-1 rout of Benilde-St.
Margaret’s Saturday afternoon. Midway through the contest, OTB’s Gunnar Olson
tweeted: “A PP goal late in the 2nd by SSM’s Clayton Keller. He has been the
everywhere today. PK, PP, drawing penalties, and 2Gs so far.” The dynamic
forward from Swansea, Ill, has 25 goals in 37 games, second best on the Sabres.
2014 BU recruit Chase Phelps (right) also added a goal, his 19th of the season for
the Sabres.
● Faribault Daily News recap
2014 BU recruit J.J. Piccinich delivered
another power play goal, his USHL-best 12th of the season, but
Youngstown was edged,
3-2, by Chicago. Piccinich has been on a tear of late with 12
goals in the past 17 games and now has 21 to go with 16 assists in 36
games.
Fellow 2014 recruit Jack Eichel assisted
on two goals as the NTDP U18s thumped Muskegon, 7-0.

BU’s newest recruit, defenseman Ori
Abramson (photo), assisted on three Jersey goals—two on the power play and one
shorthanded—as the Hitmen rubbed out Bay State, 8-3.

multi-point game of the season.
2014 recruit Shane Starrett turned
aside 37 of 39 South Shore Kings’ shots as the Portland Jr. Pirates fell to the
Kings, 3-1,
with an empty-netter. But he avoided giving up any goals to younger brother
Beau, a South Shore wing and a Cornell commit.
Looking back
Kevin Shattenkirk has
certainly made the most of his homecoming visit to New York. The former Terrier
captain and All-American, who scored the game-winner for the Blues against the
Rangers on Thursday, banged home the deciding score in a shootout win over the
Islanders, after adding an assist in regulation.
Former BU blueliner Eric Gryba assisted
on two Ottawa goals, but the Senators were doubled up by Carolina, 6-3.
John Curry, Hockey East’s MVP
and an All-American in 2006-07, turned aside 25 of 26 shots in the Iowa Wild’s 2-1 OT win
against San Antonio. Ryan Whitney assisted
on the Rampage’s only score. Curry improved his 2013-14 AHL record to 4-2-1with
a 1.81 GAA.
