Last weekend, Greenway
scored his first goal of the season in the NTDP U-18's 7-0 blanking of the NAHL
Michigan Warriors. McAvoy contributed a first-period assist in the victory.
Patrick Harper
(2016), who committed to BU Friday, scored his seventh goal of the Tier 1 Mass.
Midget season in the Neponset River Rats 6-4 loss to the Cape Cod Whalers.
The Rochester
Democrat & Chronicle, reporting
on 2017 recruit David Farrance’s commitment to BU, noted that the talented
defenseman, who is “a dynamic skater, has great poise with puck and possesses
terrific puck skills,” first visited BU a year ago and subsequently met with
the coaches again. He also visited Boston College and Penn State.
With Friday’s commitments
from Harper and Farrance, BU has received verbals from 18 players in the past
13 months. Seven are part of the current 10-man freshman class; five each in
the 2015 and 2016 classes and one for 2017.
● BU’s recruiting pipeline
Looking back
The Ottawa Sun
reports that Alex Chiasson is one of the Top
5 Ottawa Senators to watch at training camp. Sens GM Pierre Dorion: "We're
getting a guy who fits exactly what we need," said Dorion. "We need a
big-body, cycle-type of presence, net presence, scoring ability, range and
strength.”
Last season’s
captain, Garrett Noonan, a 4th round Predators’ draft pick in 2011, is playing
in the Nashville
Rookie Tournament this week. The
former Catholic Memorial standout scored 81 points in four seasons at BU.
We missed this one
back in July. Former BU All-American netminder and Hockey East MVP John Curry re-signed
with the Minnesota Wild. After spending most of last season in the AHL, Curry made
his first NHL start—since the 2009-10 season—on April 10, stopping 43 St. Louis
shots in a 4-2 win.
Jason Lawrence, who
led BU’s 2009
NCAA championship team in goals with 25 is the latest ex-Terrier to join
the coaching ranks. The Saugus native has been named head coach at Everett (Massachusetts) High School. Earlier this year, former BU captain Carl Corazzini was
tapped for the head coaching job at St. Mark’s School.
