IBUH #8: Quinn, Curry, Rappleye--UPDATED

Episode 8 of Inside BU Hockey features Bernie Corbett’s interviews with Head Coach David Quinn, freshman forward Patrick Curry and hockey journalist Tim Rappleye. Curry, a Schaumburg, Illinois native who scored 33 points with the USHL Bloomington Thunder last year, recorded his first multi-point game in the win against Harvard, with a goal and an assist, skating on the second line.

Rappleye has written for College Hockey News, New England Hockey Journal, New York Hockey Journal and ESPN Interactive. He’s currently writing a book, titled “Parker’s Wiseguys,” about the Terriers’ 1978 NCAA Championship season that concluded with a 5-3 win over Boston College. (See THFB Terrier Tale “That ChampionshipSeason.”)

Coach Quinn expects to have Cloonan and Olsson available for this weekend, while Tommy Kelley is out. Keller is "getting closer."
