Friday
night’s 8-goal outburst by BU exceeds by one the most goals the Terriers scored
in a game last season. Last October, BU upended Wisconsin, 7-3. If you missed
the highlights of BU’s win over UMass, here
they are again.
The
Daily Free Press talked with freshman Connor LaCouvee about the goalie’s strong
performance in his college hockey debut.
SB
Nation offers evaluations
of some of the draft-eligible, free agent and drafted Terriers, based on their
opening game performance.
With
all the interest in heralded freshman Jack Eichel, who is expected to be one of the
top two NHL draft picks in June, it isn’t surprising that one hockey site, The
Hockey Writers, has set up a “Jack Eichel tracker.” The first
entry reviews his efforts vs. UMass.
Looking ahead
2016 recruit Clayton Keller earned first-star honors
with two goals and an assist as the NTDP U17s defeated Minnesota Elite League’s
Team Southeast, 8-2. The
Swansea, Ill. native, who led Shattuck St. Mary’s Prep to a national U18 championship,
is the U17s current top scorer with six points.
2015 recruit Sean MacTavish registered his first USHL
point in Waterloo’s 6-4 win
against Sioux Falls. Last season, MacTavish, who is the son of former NHLer and current Oilers General Manager Craig MacTavish, was the third
leading scorer in the Alberta Junior Hockey League, earning all-rookie
honors with the Sherwood Park Crusaders.
2016 recruit Vas Kolias assisted on two goals in
Youngstown’s 3-2 win
against Bloomington. The 5-9 defenseman from Schaumberg, Ill., starred for the
Chicago Mission U16s last season.
Looking back
Nick Bonino scored his first
goal for the Canucks as Vancouver rallied from a 4-2
deficit for a 5-4 shootout
win.
Kevin Shattenkirk assisted on three
St. Louis goals as the Blues thumped Calgary, 4-1
Matt Nieto’s perfect pass sprang Matt Marleau for a breakaway goal in the Sharks’ 3-0 win over Winnipeg
Charlie Coyle deflected home a shot just two minutes into the game as Minnesota
blanked Colorado, 3-0.
Former Terrier, NHLer and Olympian Clark
Donatelli has signed a three-year
extension to his contract as head coach of the Wheeling
Nailers. The Providence, R.I. native,
who scored 135 points as a
Terrier, enters his fourth season behinds the Nailers’
bench.
Women’s Team
Terriers dropped a 5-3 decision in an exhibition game
against the Canadian Women’s Hockey League’s Boston Blades. The teams were tied
at 2-2 after the second period, with both BU goals coming off the stick of
sophomore Samantha Sutherland (photo). The
Blades took the lead early in the third only to have freshman Victoria Bach
knot the score again with just over two minutes remaining. But the Blades,
whose lineup included former Terriers Tara Watchorn and Kaleigh Fratkin, scored
the game-winner a minute-and-a-half later, then added an empty netter.
Victoria Hanson and Erin O’Neil split the netminding
duties for BU, with each yielding two goals.
Prior to the game BU raised its 2014 Hockey East
Championship banner and its updated NCAA tournament banner following another
appearance in 2014.
