Roster moves; BU recruits head to World U18 semis



The Boston Hockey Blog is reporting that junior Dillon Lawrence and freshman Erik Udahl have been cut from next season’s BU roster.

World U18 Championships
Clayton Keller had three points (1G, 2A), Kieffer Bellows added an assist and Jake Oettinger stopped all 15 shots he faced as Team USA cruised into the IIHF World U18 Championship semi-finals with an 8-0 rout of The Czech Republic.  Keller, who is second in the tournament in scoring with 10 points, was the U.S. player of the game. Oettinger improved his GAA to 1.00 and his save percentage to .942. Team USA will face Finland Saturday in the semifinals.

Keller's three points give him 103 for the season, moving him past Patrick Kane into second place in the NTDP single-season record book. With two assists, he has 66 and holds the single-season record in that category, and, with one more goal, he'll tie Jack Eichel and Matthew Tkachuk for ninth most in a season.
