Looking ahead
BU has received a verbal from Junior Bruins (USPHL Premier) left wing Ryan Cloonan. The Longmeadow, Mass., native, who has 65 points (20G, 45A) thus far this season, is expected to join BU’s 2016 class of forwards, which includes Clayton Keller, Kieffer Bellows and Johnny McDermott.

A 1995 birthdate, Cloonan had originally committed to Maine several years ago, but decommitted due to a coaching change.

SB Nation:
Cloonan is a small forward, but he's shifty and has good hands. A gritty player who's not afraid to go into the dirty areas, he's got really good speed as well.

Looking back
Former Terrier Adam Clendening, holding down a regular spot on the Vancouver blueline since his trade from Chicago, returned to hometown Buffalo with the Canucks and spoke with the Buffalo News.

Women’s Team
#7 Terriers begin their best-of-three Hockey East quarterfinal series today against Vermont. Puck drop at Walter Brown Arena is at 5 p.m. Saturday and (if needed) Sunday will have 3 p.m. starts.

BU won two of its three meetings with the Catamounts this season, most recently a 9-2 win at home with seven Terriers finding the net.
