IBUH 19; Future Terriers invited to NTDP evaluation camp



Episode 19 of Inside BU Hockey features Bernie Corbett’s interviews with head coach David Quinn, sophomore defenseman Brien Diffley and Terrier Hockey Fan Blog editor Rick Sacks.

Diffley, who has been a solid, puck-moving blueliner for BU, has five assists and a +9 rating this season after putting up 11 points (1G, 10A) as a freshman. Prior to BU, he was a standout for Buckingham, Browne & Nichols, where he earned ISL All-star honors in 2014. Before that, he helped Burlington HS win a Massachusetts state championship in 2012.
