Behind
three goals from red-hot Bobo Carpenter, a pair from Brady Tkachuk and 23 saves
from Jake Oettinger, BU began its series with Arizona State with an 8-0 blanking.
Defensemen Dante Fabbro and Cam Crotty and forward Gabe Chabot each contributed
two assists as the Terriers generated their second highest scoring output of
the season. BU is now 4-0-1 in its last five games and will look for a second
consecutive weekend sweep when it faces the Sun Devils again on Saturday
evening.

After ASU controlled the early going, only to be stymied by Oettinger, Carpenter, who now has seven goals in the past four games, connected at 7:20 of the first period on a power play. Then, late in the period, three BU freshmen found the net three times in 1:50. First Hank Crone converted the rebound of a Ty Amonte shot for a 2-0 lead that quickly doubled when Tkachuk and Shane Bowers scored goals 21 seconds apart.

“He was snake bit. He needed a hug after every game. He had plenty of chances and he wasn’t getting rewarded. Now it’s jumping in the net for him.”
