#2
Terriers dropped a 4-3 decision to #10 Denver in the opener of a two-game
series with the Pioneers at Magness Arena. BU trailed 4-1 after two periods and
narrowed the margin with goals by sophomore Jordan Greenway and freshman Clayton
Keller, but that was as close as BU would come.
BU drew
four first-period penalties, killing three, but at 17:55, Matt Marcinew
connected with a man-advantage for the hosts. The Pioneers extended their lead
to 3-0 in the second period when Troy Terry and Evan Janssen scored within a
42-second span.
The
Terriers finally got on the board at 9:25 as junior Brandon Hickey (photo) connected on a
one-timer from the top of the left circle on a power play, assisted by sophomore
Jakob Forsbacka Karlsson and freshman
Patrick Harper. But DU answered back with Janssen’s second of the night just
two-and-a-half minutes later.
Early
in the third, Greenway converted a loose puck in the crease, assisted by Forsbacka Karlsson and Harper. Then midway through the
period, Keller’s shorthanded breakaway goal closed the gap to one. Terriers had
several scoring opportunities down the stretch that were thwarted by DU’s Tanner Jaillet.
Freshman
Jake Oettinger stopped 31 Denver shots, including eight on first-period power
plays, as his record fell to 1-1-0.
The
teams go at it again tonight with puck drop set for 7:00 p.m. MT/9:00 p.m. ET.
