#1/2 Terriers’
week went from bad to worse as they were defeated again by Merrimack, this time
a 4-1 defeat before a stunned crowd at Agganis Arena. For the Warriors, it was
their first-ever sweep of BU in Hockey East regular season play.
BU
dominated the first period, outshooting the visitors, 16-4. However, one of
those four shots was a power play goal by Brett Seney. That deficit was
nullified when BU scored its own power play tally. Clayton Keller converted the
rebound of Patrick Harper’s shot with Charlie McAvoy also picking up an assist.
Seney
scored the eventual game-winner midway through the second period and Michael
Babcock scored twice in the third period—the first coming shorthanded.
Warriors’
goalie Colin Delia turned aside 37 BU shots, while Jake Oettinger made 27
saves.
Among
the disappointments Coach David Quinn voiced was a lack of physicality around
the puck.
“We had a two-on-one and a three-on-two in the second period and didn’t even get a shot. So that has something to do with it. If you’re not physical the other team has five guys that can defend all the time."
Junior
assistant captain Nikolas Olsson, who sat out Tuesday's game with an
injury, suffered a leg injury in the first period, was helped off the
ice and did not return. Asked about the injury, Quinn said,“We
don’t know for sure, but it’s not good.”
