With just two day left until puck drop between BU and
Union at Agganis Arena, we have plenty of information for Terrier fans
preparing for the 2017-18 season.
BU has issued its 2017-18 Men’s Hockey Prospectus on pdf

While the two national polls have the Terriers ranked #2
as the season begins, College Hockey News has a more modest ranking, #7, and placed Bowers (photo) on the pre-season all-rookie team.

Beginning his second professional season, two-time BU
